 TLan Device Driver change log.
 
+0.43	- Changed the id strings of the Compaq devices to their real
+	  names.
+	- Added 2 other Olicom devices with a patch provided by
+	  Henrik Storner of Olicom.
+	- Changed AN so the driver won't try to autonegotiate with
+	  a partner that doesn't autonegotiate.
+	- Added a section to verify whether in full or half duplex.
+	- Added value checking for speed and duplex inputs.
+	- Added B012 and B030 Compaq devices.
+	  
+0.42	- Coverted tranceiver from misused per-tranceiver functions
+	  to a timer-oriented path that covers four possible classes
+	  of tranceivers:
+		1. Unmanaged
+		2. Manual configuration
+		3. Autonegotiation w/ manual configuration
+		4. Autonegotiation w/ auto configuration
+	- Added ability to force speed and duplex settings.
+	- Made speed, duplex, sa_int, etc, to be set per adapter with
+	  ether= command.
+	- Added support for Olicom OC-2326
+
+0.41	- Added non-bounce buffer paths.  Added TLan_FreeLists to
+	  dispose of unused sk_buff's at device close time.
+	- Discovered inlined functions aren't being inlined, or at
+	  least take up more space than macros would.
+
+0.40	- Refined polarity checking to handle case when polarity
+	  changes to normal from abnormal.
+	- Cleaned up TLan_Probe routine.
+	- Added an option for the SA_INTERRUPT flag to be set.
+	- Created FAQ.
+	- Removed all C++ style comments.
+	- Added error message if devices busmastering is inactive.
+	  Also will now skip device.
+	- Put cli and sti back into TLan_HandleInterrupt.  It makes
+	  me feel better.
+	- Moved the code that checks for boot parameter options to 
+	  tlan_probe.
+
+0.39	- Minor cosmetic cleanups (especially variable declarations).
+	- Changes low level TLAN functions to use dev structures instead
+	  individual data elements.
+        - Changed low level TLAN functions not to play with sti and cli
+	  if in an interrupt routine.
+	- Removed cli and sti from TLan_HandleInterrupt.
+
 0.38	- Added code to isolate the external PHY if the internal PHY is
 	  being used for AUI/BNC connectivity.  Also set the aui and
 	  debug variables from mem_start and mem_end if the driver is

 	  100Mbs should work now on 0xAE32.
 	- Fixed a small bug where heartbeat and PHY interrupts were
 	  always being enabled.

+	- Force the the driver into Unmanaged PHY mode for 0xF130 devices,
 	  even if a managed (ie, the built-in one) PHY is detected.
 	- Moved the PHY initialization to after the onboard PHY is enabled,
