Typical 43.Tn EISA 44buses are either connected directly 45to the main system bus, or via an 46.Tn PCI 47to 48.Tn EISA 49bridge. See the 50.Xr intro 4 51documentation for your system for details. 52.Sh DESCRIPTION 53.Nx 54includes a machine-independent 55.Tn EISA 56bus subsystem and several machine-independent 57.Tn EISA 58device drivers. 59.Pp 60Your system may support additional 61.Tn EISA 62devices. 63Drivers for 64.Tn EISA 65devices not listed here are machine-dependent. 66Consult your system's 67.Xr intro 4 68for additional information. 69.Sh SUPPORTED DEVICES 70.Nx 71includes machine-independent 72.Tn EISA 73drivers, sorted by device type 74and driver name: 75.Ss Disk and tape controllers 76.Bl -tag -width pcdisplay -offset indent 77.It cac 78Compaq array controllers. 79.It mlx 80Mylex DAC960 and DEC SWXCR RAID controllers. 81.El 82.Ss SCSI interfaces 83.Bl -tag -width pcdisplay -offset indent 84.It ahb 85Adaptec 174x 86.Tn SCSI 87interfaces. 88.It ahc 89Adaptec AIC 7770, 274x, and 284x 90.Tn SCSI 91interfaces. 92.It bha 93BusLogic BT-74x 94.Tn SCSI 95interfaces. 96.It dpt 97DPT SmartCache/SmartRAID III and IV 98.Tn SCSI 99interfaces. 100.It uha 101Ulrastor 24f 102.Tn SCSI 103interfaces. 104.El 105.Ss Network interfaces 106.Bl -tag -width pcdisplay -offset indent 107.It ep 1083Com 3c579 and 3c592 10Mbit 109.Tn Ethernet , 110and 3c597 10/100Mbit 111.Tn Ethernet 112interfaces. 113.It fea 114Digital DEFEA FDDI interfaces. 115.It le 116Digital DE422 117.Tn Ethernet 118interfaces. 119.It tlp 120Digital DE425 121.Tn Ethernet 122interfaces. 123.El 124.Pp 125Note that most or all 126.Tn EISA 127devices also have 128.Tn PCI 129or 130.Tn ISA 131equivalents. 132These are listed in 133.Xr pci 4 , 134.Xr isa 4 , 135or 136.Xr isapnp 4 , 137respectively.
