| 13 | You need both this driver, and the driver for the particular ARCnet |
| 14 | chipset of your card. If you don't know, then it's probably a |
| 15 | COM90xx type card, so say Y (or M) to "ARCnet COM90xx chipset |

| 17 | |
| 18 | You might also want to have a look at the Ethernet-HOWTO, available |
| 19 | from <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>(even though ARCnet |
| 20 | is not really Ethernet). |

| 45 | of NetBSD. You do not need to say Y here to communicate with |
