NAME
     sge -- Silicon Integrated Systems SiS190/191 Fast/Gigabit Ethernet driver

SYNOPSIS
     To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following lines in your
     kernel configuration file:

	   device miibus
	   device sge

     Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the
     following line in loader.conf(5):

	   if_sge_load="YES"

DESCRIPTION
     The sge device driver provides support for SiS190 Fast Ethernet controllers
     and SiS191 Fast/Gigabit Ethernet controllers.

     All  LOMs	supported by the sge driver have TCP/UDP/IP checksum offload for
     transmit and receive, TCP segmentation offload  (TSO),  hardware  VLAN  tag
     stripping/insertion  features.   Due  to  lack of documentation Wake On Lan
     (WOL), Jumbo frame and an interrupt moderation mechanism are not  supported
     yet.

     The sge driver supports the following media types:

     autoselect   Enable  autoselection of the media type and options.	The user
		  can manually override the autoselected mode  by  adding  media
		  options to rc.conf(5).

     10baseT/UTP  Set 10Mbps operation.

     100baseTX	  Set 100Mbps (Fast Ethernet) operation.

     1000baseTX   Set 1000baseTX operation over twisted pair.

     The sge driver supports the following media options:

     full-duplex  Force full duplex operation.

     half-duplex  Force half duplex operation.

     For more information on configuring this device, see ifconfig(8).

HARDWARE
     The  sge  device  driver  provides  support for the following Ethernet con-
     trollers:

     *	 SiS190 Fast Ethernet controller
     *	 SiS191 Fast/Gigabit Ethernet controller

HISTORY
     The   sge	 driver   was	written   by  Alexander  Pohoyda  <alexander.po-
