34.Os
35.Sh NAME
36.Nm neptune
37.Nd Neptune-X ISA bridge driver
38.Sh SYNOPSIS
39.Cd "neptune0 at intio0 addr 0xece000 irq 239"
40.Cd "ne0 at neptune? addr 0x300"
41.Sh DESCRIPTION
42The Neptune-X is a Ethernet interface card initially designed by
43Hirofumi Shimada, which uses popular NE2000 or its clone with its
44own x68k-proprietary bus to ISA bus bridge.
45.Pp
46The
47.Nx
48.Nm
49driver takes charge of the ISA bridge part of the Neptune-X.
50It is implemented as a more generic `bus' with its own
51.Xr bus_space 9
52interface, and is intended to be used with
53.Xr ne 4
54driver.
55.Sh SEE ALSO
56.Xr isa 4 ,
57.Xr ne 4 ,
58.Xr x68k/intro 4 ,
59.Xr bus_space 9
60.Sh HISTORY
61The
62.Nm
63device appeared in
64.Nx 1.4 .
65.Sh BUGS
66.Nm
67itself is always detected when it is specified in the kernel config file.
68This is because the Neptune-X ISA bridge is transparent to software.
69The attached device is detected appropriately.
