30.Sh NAME
31.Nm my
32.Nd "Myson Technology Ethernet PCI driver"
33.Sh SYNOPSIS
34To compile support for the
35.Nm
36driver into your kernel, place the following lines in your kernel configuration
37file:
38.Bd -ragged -offset indent
39.Cd "device miibus"
40.Cd "device my"
41.Ed
42.Pp
43Alternatively, to load the
44.Nm
45driver at boot time, place the following line in
46.Xr loader.conf 5 :
47.Bd -literal -offset indent
48if_my_load="YES"
49.Ed
50.Sh DESCRIPTION
51The
52.Nm
53driver provides support for various NICs based on the Myson chipset.
54The Myson chipset is a variant of the DEC Tulip NIC chipset.
55.Pp
56The driver will work with almost any MII-compliant PHY, thus failure to
57positively identify the chip is not a fatal error.
58.Sh HARDWARE
59The
60.Nm
61driver provides support for various NICs based on the Myson chipset.
62Supported models include:
63.Pp
64.Bl -bullet -compact
65.It
66Myson MTD800 PCI Fast Ethernet chip
67.It
68Myson MTD803 PCI Fast Ethernet chip
69.It
70Myson MTD89X PCI Gigabit Ethernet chip
