		Linux network driver modules

	Do not mistake this to "README.modules" at the top-level
	directory!  That document tells about modules in general, while
	this one tells only about network device driver modules.

	This is a potpourri of INSMOD-time(*) configuration options
	(if such exists) and their default values of various modules
	on Linux network drivers collection.

	Some modules have also hidden (= non-documented) tunable values.
	Choice of not documenting them is based on general belief, that
	the less user needs to know, the better.  (There are things that
	driver developer can use, others should not confuse themselves.)

	In many cases it is highly preferred that insmod:ing is done
	ONLY with defining an explicite address for the card, AND BY
	NOT USING AUTO-PROBING!

	Now most cards have some explicitely defined base address, they
	are compiled with (to avoid auto-probing, among other things).
	If that compiled value does not match your actual configuration,
	do use  "io=0xXXX" -parameter for the  insmod, and give there
	a value matching your environment.

	If you are adventureous, you can ask the driver to autoprobe
	by using "io=0" parameter, however it is potentially dangerous
	thing to do in a live system.  (If you don't know where the
	card is located, you can try autoprobing, and after possible
	crash recovery, insmod with proper IO-address..)

	--------------------------
	(*)	"INSMOD-time" means when you load module with
		/sbin/insmod  you can feed it optional parameters.
		See "man insmod".
