It also makes a good README file. The driver distribution contains 5 files: vv.4: the manual page (123 lines) vv.ms: the installation notes (261 lines) vv.h: one of the include files (1 line) if_vv.h: the other include file (146 lines) if_vv.c: the driver code itself. (1319 lines) The distribution itself is in a Bourne shell file, which if executed, extracts the files from itself. ("sh -x vv.shar"). Everything you ought to need to know is in vv.ms, so [nt]roffing a copy of it should be your first priority. Vv.4 is the manual page contains a complete set of driver error messages. If this still doesn't satisfy you, try reading if_vv.c -- it is pretty well documented. If you want information about the ring net itself, contact Proteon, Inc. (617) 655-3340. You can also reach them by mailing to acm@mit-borax. PLEASE READ THE DISCLAIMER AT THE END OF VV.MS! However, if you do have problems, please direct questions to me directly (not v2lni-people, and emphatically not any USENET mailing lists -- I'm not directly on USENET).
