Release notes for SMCPWR.LAN (Novell ODI Server driver) V(2.14)
---------------------------------------------------------------

*****************************************************************
Changes:
--------
- Changed the destructors to delete memory on-line thereby reducing max memory
usage during CreateNIC and footprint afterwards (55% max, and 75% footprint).
- Added DC21041 autosense support.
- Added a special flavour of the driver that is SPEC 3.2 compliant (i.e. does not use
NBI from Novell) in order to have a solution for the Netware 3.11 platforms.
- Added updates of 10/100 switching in the config tables.
- Corrected the NC and LC wrong count on full duplex problem.
- Updated the README files to show current kit (including 3.11 support)
- Fixed a problem in WriteCSR6 that caused a hang on certain SMP machines.
Changes in ODI 32 bit driver v2.13:
-----------------------------------
- Fixed the problem where DC21140 was not working properly because the GEP control word
was not written correctly.
- Solved the problem whereSMP machines with secondary APIC did nor send interrupts to the
driver because we limited the interrupt number to 15 (max) which is NOT true in SMP.
- Added SROM spec v4.00 support.
- Added MICROLINEAR support, both FORCE and AUTOSENSE.
Issues:
-------
NONE
Tests:
