Please, someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I noticed that in the

Folks,
Is there any support available for the ENI-155p-MF-S Efficient ATM card
on Alpha processors?
I've had no luck with the Linux driver on Alpha, although it seems ok

Hello,
Well, as most of you no doubt know, the lnc ethernet driver is broken for
PCNet/PCI chips again (it gives up when its memory
is allocated above 16Mb, due to ISA limits in the driver).

the ISA source, so that the ISA limits don't

Hmm. I sent this message a few days ago and it has been silently ignored.
Should I consider that an OK to extern the get_mode_param function in
vga_isa.c? Or should I take that as a mass "go ahead, we're not going to
commit the code anyway?" :(

No luck, I got the same error.
I would really like to know if someone else has actually got this
