>Description:
When I checked NetBSD-current for 3c905 support I was surprised not to find
it in any of the kernel configuration files. After checking the driver
sources I found out that the 3c590 driver supports this board, too. To avoid
confusion the kernel configuration files should mention that.
>How-To-Repeat:
cd src/sys/arch/i386/conf
grep 3c90 *
>Fix:
Replace "3C590 ethernet cards" by "3COM 3c59x/3c90x Ethernet" (taken from
"src/sys/arch/alpha/conf/GENERIC") in all kernel configuration files.
