perry a3a5203515 Change all instances of Etherlink to EtherLink
and a few related name patchups.
Suggested by Igor Sobrado in PR misc/19817
However, he also proposes changing all 3cNNN->3CNNN because
that is what 3Com seems to prefer. I've decided not to do it.
We're just too used to the other way.
Changed a couple of 3CNNNes to 3cNNNes for internal consistency.

.Sh NAME
.Nm isapnp
.Nd introduction to ISA Plug-and-Play support
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.Cd "isapnp0 at isa?"
.Pp
An
.Nm
bus can be configured for each supported ISA bus.
.Sh DESCRIPTION
.Nx
provides machine-independent bus support and
drivers for ISA Plug-and-Play (isapnp) autoconfiguration of
PnP-compatible
devices on an ISA bus.
.Sh SUPPORTED DEVICES
.Nx
includes machine-independent ISAPNP drivers, sorted by function
and driver name:
.Ss SCSI interfaces
.Bl -tag -width pcdisplay -offset indent

.Ss Sound cards
.Bl -tag -width pcdisplay -offset indent
.It ess
ESS Technology derived PnP sound cards and devices.
.It guspnp
Gravis Ultrasound PnP sound cards.
.It sb
SoundBlaster, SoundBlaster 16, and SoundBlaster Pro sound cards.
.It wss
Windows Sound System compatible cards, e.g., most of the cards
with Crystal Semiconductor chips.
.It ym

.El
.Ss Miscellaneous devices
.Bl -tag -width pcdisplay -offset indent
.It pcic
.Tn PCI
.Tn PCMCIA
controllers, including the Cirrus Logic GD6729.
.El
.Pp
ISA Plug-and-Play devices also have alternate ISA drivers with
static ISA IO address configuration.
These are listed in
.Xr isa 4 .
The
.Nm
bus ignores device that have already been found and configured as
.Xr isa 4
devices.
The
.Nm
bus is only effective on machines which lack a PnP BIOS, or on
which the PnP BIOS has been disabled.
The manual pages for each individual
.Nm
driver also list
the supported front-ends for other buses.
