* There is no -indent option to .Bd or .Bl, although you would never know that from its frequent use in this tree. There is a "-offset indent" combination that makes sense, and you can certainly say "-width indent". * Also, you can't markup the -width option argument, tho you CAN use a callable macro. So "-width Ar filename" doesn't make sense, but either "-width Ar" or "-width filename" does, as might something like "-width xxfilename" for a little extra space. * There are a lot of needlessly complex hanging tag macros in man4 used to create simple item lists. Those should be simplified one of these days before someone copies and edits yet another man4 page.

.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The

|
|
Some Xircom Ethernet products are supported by the
|
|
.Xr tlp 4
|
|
driver.
|
|
.Sh MEDIA SELECTION
|
|
Media selection is done using
|
|
.Xr ifconfig 8
|
|
using the standard
|
|
.Xr ifmedia 4
|
|
mechanism. Refer to those manual pages for more information.

.Sh HISTORY
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
device driver appeared in
|
|
.Nx 1.5 .
|
|
.Sh BUGS
|
|
The driver suffers from poor performance. Even with the 10/100 cards,
|
|
do not expect more than ~450KB/s. Some 10/100 cards may not autonegotiate
|
|
reliably and require manual media selection.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The Xircom multifunction cards which contain both Ethernet and modem
|
|
interfaces are known to have problems. This is due to the card not
|
|
reporting itself correctly as a multifunction card.
