33 .Nd Acorn Econet driver
35 .Cd eca0 at ioc0 bank 2
39 driver provides access to an Econet network through a standard Acorn
40 Econet module, based on the Motorola 6854 ADLC. It obtains its Econet
41 station number from the machine's CMOS RAM.
45 Transmission of a frame failed because the driver couldn't get data to
46 the ADLC fast enough. This might be caused by the network clock rate
47 being too high, or by the current screen mode using too much of the
50 A collision occurred while transmitting a frame. The transmission
51 should be retried, but currently isn't.
52 .It %s: incomplete transmission
53 A transmission failed to complete, but no obvious reason was found.
54 This should never happen.
56 Reception of a frame failed because the driver couldn't get data off
57 the ADLC fast enough. Likely causes are the same as for
61 A frame being received was aborted before it was complete. This was
62 probably caused by a problem at the transmitting station.
64 A received frame failed its cyclic redundancy check and was discarded.
65 This is usually due to electrical noise on the network.
67 The clock signal on the Econet has disappeared. This probably
68 indicates that the machine is unplugged from the network, or that the
69 network itself has failed.
70 .It %s: Oversized frame
71 A frame larger than the current MTU of the interface was received and
