>Description:
man ex(4) doest say that there is MII support needed for configureing
3com nic's. I tested to nics (3c905C-TX|3c905B-TX); both fail to configure there media options ( like, autoselect, 100BaseTX ), and getting this message:
ifconfig: SIOCSIFMEDIA: Invalid argument
We leaving out the MII support out of the kernel.
>How-To-Repeat:
just leave the MII support out of the kernel for 3com nic's 3c905C-TX|3c905B-TX);
>Fix:
put in man page ex(4), MII support is need when configureing media type.
and put mii(4) at the end of the man page.
-Yours
