I'm working on a program and I would like to create man pages for
it. Does anyone know where I could find a document that outlines how to
create one (or several)? I'm totally lost. :^(
Thanks in advance,

I'm setting up Red Hat Linux on a computer in my mom's store, and
I'm now trying to get networking setup. The problem, it's got a 3Com
OfficeConnect Ethernet card (3CSOHO100-TX) and I can't find the driver
for this card in the kernel or any reference to it in any howtos. Anyone
