In the CAVEATS section of the ed (4) manpage, it says this: 16bit Compex cards identify themselves as being 8bit. While these cards will work in 8bit mode, much higher performance can be achieved by speci- fying "flags 0x04" (force 16bit mode) in your kernel config file. In addi- tion, you should also specify "iosize 16384" to take advantage of the extra 8k of shared memory that 16bit mode provides. If you put the word "iosize" in a kernel config file it produces a syntax error. It should be "iosiz" (without the 'e'). I'm not familiar with the procedure(s) for fixing typos like this, but if one of you could enlighten me and/or just take care of it I'd be appreciative.
