Subject: Re: DP83843 media interface and the tlp driver 
Message-ID: <199912071827.KAA19875@lestat.nas.nasa.gov>

$ I think I have the data sheet for the dp83843 PHY (isn't that the "PHYter"?),
$ and will work on a driver for it soon.

I update /usr/src in My laptop. My laptop is TOSHIBA Satellite 2550X
that include 21143 PCI NIC. I add next line in My config file.

nsphyter*       at mii? phy ?                   # NS83843 PHYs

I reconfig my kernel and play.
tlp0(PCI) with nsphyter and tlp1(Cardbus) works for me. 

a part of dmesg message is below:

I think  "tlp driver is Cool !!". I will track tlp driver.
