The majority of the man pages uses 'Mbps' over 'mbps', so the patch below replaces instances of 'mbps' with 'Mbps'. >How-To-Repeat: cd /usr/src/share/man/man4 grep -l 'mbps' * grep -l 'Mbps' * >Fix: --- mbps2Mbps.diff begins here --- --- orig/bge.4 Tue Jun 8 09:23:15 2004 +++ bge.4 Tue Jun 8 09:23:34 2004 @@ -88,7 +88,7 @@ .Pp Most BCM5700-based cards also use the Broadcom BCM5401 or BCM5411 10/100/1000 copper gigabit transceivers, -which support autonegotiation of 10, 100 and 1000mbps modes in +which support autonegotiation of 10, 100 and 1000Mbps modes in full or half duplex. .Pp The BCM570x also supports jumbo frames, which can be configured --- orig/cue.4 Tue Jun 8 09:23:15 2004 +++ cue.4 Tue Jun 8 09:23:46 2004 @@ -54,7 +54,7 @@ Packets are received and transmitted over separate USB bulk transfer endpoints. .Pp -The CATC adapter supports only 10mbps half-duplex mode, hence there +The CATC adapter supports only 10Mbps half-duplex mode, hence there are no .Xr ifmedia 4 modes to select. --- orig/dc.4 Tue Jun 8 09:23:15 2004 +++ dc.4 Tue Jun 8 09:23:56 2004 @@ -238,7 +238,7 @@ .El .Pp Note that the 100baseTX media type may not be available on certain -Intel 21143 adapters which support 10mbps media attachments only. +Intel 21143 adapters which support 10Mbps media attachments only.
