- Talk about supported chips rather than supported cards as the majority of the hardware supported by gem(4) is on-board. - "the .Nm driver" - Sort the list of supported chips alphabetically. - Sun GEM aren't used on-board though, so don't claim they'd be. - Add a CAVEATS section informing that Sun GEM cards aren't supported so far. MFC after: 1 day
