78The
79.Nm
80driver was written for
81.Ox
82by
83.An Mark Kettenis
84.Aq kettenis@openbsd.org ,
85based on the
86.Xr gem 4
87driver, and ported to
88.Nx
89by
90.An Julian Coleman
91.Aq jdc@NetBSD.org .
92.Sh BUGS
93The
94.Nm
95driver does not support any of the advanced features of the Cassini chip.
96.Pp
97On the SX fibre variants of the hardware, the link may stay down if media
98options apart from
99.Dv autoselect
100are chosen.
