Subject: [2.6 patch] document that 8139TOO supports 8129/8130
Date: Wed, 22 Jun 2005 11:24:09 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20050622092408.GB3705@stusta.de> (raw)

The 8129/8130 support is a sub-option that is not visible if the user 
hasn't enabled the 8139 support.

Let's make it a bit easier for users to find the driver for their nic.
