All,

The latest olympic drivers are now up on the web site for the 2.4.3 
kernels. (At least 2.4.3, it won't work on 2.4.1 or 2.4.2). 

4/1/01
Added: alloc_trdev & friends, pci dma api, net init api and other misc. 
cleanups.
Changed: network_monitor is now a kernel parameter, not a compile time 
option and it add one entry per adapter in /proc/net.
4/16/01
Fixed: Couple of bugs in the pci_unmap calls.
Added: Hot-eject support. The adapter doesn't die and take the kernel with 
it. You can now eject the cardbus adapters when live and the driver will 
exit gracefully and clean up after itself. (So re-insertion works fine.)

I've tested as a module and compiled into the kernel for the regular pci 
adapters (both 16/4 and 100/16/4) and as a module for the cardbus 
adapters. 

Unless someone screams really loudly in the next couple of days, this is 
going in the kernel as is.
