- I'm really confused as to why EVERYONE seems to have missed the posting
- in comp.os.linux.announce by Donald Becker (becker@super.org) which
- announced the ne2000/3c503/ne1000 ethernet driver for Linux.

- It's NOT difficult, and we're all getting tired of answering the same questions
- over and over. You obviously didn't look "everywhere" for the ne2000 driver if
- you didn't look in comp.os.linux.announce.
-
- The ne2000 driver is not on sunsite or tsx-11. It's on super.org.
