Hi

I have a PCI card based on the realtek 8029 chipset. i tried adding
'device rl' (realtek 8129/8139) to the kernconf, but it didn't work. but
for some reason, it works with ed0 (realtek 8002) which looks like an
ISA driver. why does this driver work ? also ed0 seems to be the only
ISA NIC that uses miibus. what is miibus and does it have anything to do
with ed0 working with this card ? i think the card manufacturer was
Comdex or something like that

regards
gautham
