(2) New variable PERL_ARCH (value: ${ARCH}-freebsd) that is also
passed to ${PLIST_SUB}. Use it to simplify PLISTs.

(3) Check OSVERSION as well as existence of /usr/bin/perl5 before
assuming USE_PERL5 is to be a no-op. Basically to allow building
of 2.2-INDEX on a 3.0 machine.
(4) Change USE_QT definition to use new shlib version (2) and
directory (qt142).
(5) Uncomment temporary Motif dependency for parallel package
building. We still need to figure out a way to install the pkg
database files, but it's a start.
(6) Move EXTRACT_SUFX up into the pre.mk area so it can be used in
exists() tests.
(7) Add MASTER_SITE_COMP_SOURCES. Note that this is defined like
"/pub/usenet/comp.sources.%SUBDIR%/" so you can specify something
like "SUBDIR=x/volume18" to select the newsgroup as well as
subdirectory name.

+ ECP parallel port chipset FIFO detection
+ DMA+FIFO parallel I/O handled as chipset specific
+ nlpt updated in order to use the above enhanced parallel I/O.
Use 'lptcontrol -e' to use enhanced I/O
+ Various options documented in LINT
+ Full IEEE1284 NIBBLE and BYTE modes support. See ppbus(4) for
an overview of the IEEE1284 standard
+ Detection of PnP parallel devices at boot
+ Read capability added to nlpt driver to get IEEE1284 compliant
printer status with a simple 'cat /dev/lpt0'
+ IEEE1284 peripheral emulation added to BYTE mode. Two computers
may dialog according to IEEE1284 signaling method.
See PERIPH_1284 option and /sys/dev/ppbus/ppi.c
All this code is supposed to provide basic functions for IEEE1284 programming.

The "clean" targets continue to remove ".so" files too, to deal with
old systems.
on the ASIX AX88140A chip. Update /sys/conf/files, RELNOTES.TXT,
/sys/i388/i386/userconfig.c, sysinstall/devices.c, GENERIC and LINT
accordingly.
For now, the only board that I know of that uses this chip is the
Alfa Inc. GFC2204. (Its predecessor, the GFC2202, was a DEC tulip card.)
Thanks again to Ulf for obtaining the board for me. If anyone runs
across another, please feel free to update the man page and/or the
release notes. (The same applies for the other drivers.)
FreeBSD should now have support for all of the DEC tulip workalike
chipsets currently on the market (Macronix, Lite-On, Winbond, ASIX).
And unless I'm mistaken, it should also have support for all PCI fast
ethernet chipsets in general (except maybe the SMC FEAST chip, which
nobody seems to ever use, including SMC). Now if only we could convince
3Com, Intel or whoever to cough up some documentation for gigabit
ethernet hardware.
Also updated RELNOTEX.TXT to mention that the SVEC PN102TX is supported
by the Macronix driver (assuming you actually have an SVEC PN102TX with
a Macronix chip on it; I tried to order a PN102TX once and got a box
labeled 'Hawking Technology PN102TX' that had a VIA Rhine board inside
it).

ISDN4BSD is the work of our brand-new comitter: Hellmuth Michaelis,
who has done a tremendous amount of work to bring us this far.
There are still some outstanding issues and files to bring into
the tree, and for now it will be needed to pick up all the extra
docs from the isdn4bsd release.
It is probably also a very good idea to subscribe to the isdn@freebsd.org
mailing list before you try this out.
These files correspond to release "beta Version 0.70.00 / December
1998" from Hellmuth.
- Get the (tm) signal correct in nroff versions
- Correct highlighting (docs/9196)
Sigh. This is still a long way from being correct. In particular,
the states are both incorrect, and they don't format properly in
troff. But it will have to wait until I stop changing the meanings of
the states.

My Random-House dictionary doesn't list them, and grog says (paraphrased):
SOED only accepts 'corelate's, and it just notes corelate as an

correlate.

ethernet driver.
The BUGS section is still impressive, but the driver seems to work for
me now. Disclaimer: i haven't been able to test this under -current
so far (but it compiles, and the notebook it's intended for can now be
updated to -current more easy than before). Don't be afraid of the
many #ifdefs on __FreeBSD_version in the imported file; i want them in
the repository on the vendor-branch so other people can also manually
integrate it into older systems. I'll clean it up on the -current
branch in a followup commit. The vendor-banch version right now
supports systems back to 2.2R.
This driver should be layered upon ppc(4), but i currently have no
idea how to do this.
Eventually i'll further develop the driver to also support the more
modern RTL 8012 success, which seems to be present in a number of
cheap pocket ethernet adapters these days. Right now, i doubt it will
run with the 8012 without any changes.
Finally a big Thanks! to RealTek for promptly providing me with
documentation and with the source code for the 8012 pocket driver upon
request. I wish all vendors were that cooperative!.
mechanisms. It is a little light on detail but still a pretty good
overview. I suggest that for specific detail (such as, for example,
how to setup kerberos), that additional security-DETAILNAME man pages
be written and refered to.
