        * ne2000/ne2000.c: Fix some errors in the driver.  
        1. There was no sufficient check of data in ethernet header.
        The code in ne_rx_daemon() was:
            inport_word (dport, len);
            ...
            len -= 4;
              ...
            if (len > 0)
              ne_read_data (sc, startaddr, len, p);
        Unfortunately, sometimes my NIC gave me too big len value,
        the result was memory override.  To fix this, I added ethernet
        header data checking.

        2. The way overrides were serviced was not good.  It was complex
        but sometimes did not provide reliable continuing of NIC working.
        I had the situation of an endless loop in ne_check_status()
        after override processing.

        3. There was conceptual error of porting.  The old method of
        overrides curing was ported from the OS-s, where override-processing
        did start immediately.  But RTEMS-version uses events, and cleaning
        of the overrides can start later.

        I selected the way of ne2000 programming that is used
        in freebsd kernel (v4.0).

        Because of both problems, incorrect data in header of raw packet
        and receiver override, it went through ne_reset() and fully
        reset the ne2000.

        So, in summary
        - added detecting of the incorrect data in ethernet header;
        - replaced handling of receiver overrides with new scheme,
        via resetting of NIC, this method is used also in case of
        invalid header detecting.

        * console/console.c, console/serial_mouse.c, include/bsp.h:
        Add the ability to set parity, number of data bits and
        number of stop bits to the existing i386 serial drivers.

2000-10-17      Joel Sherrill <joel@OARcorp.com>

        * startup/Makefile.am: Added idt.c since it has been moved libcpu/i386
        to libbsp/i386/shared/irq.

2000-09-29      Charles-Antoine Gauthier <charles.gauthier@nrc.ca>

        * startup/linkcmds: Added lines so DWARF debug information
        would be available.  Otherwise gdb complains that the offsets
        for the debug info are incorrect and doesn't load the files.

2000-09-11      Ralf Corsepius <corsepiu@faw.uni-ulm.de>

        * start/Makefile.am: Remove AM_CPPFLAGS and GAS_CODE16 conditional.

2000-09-04      Ralf Corsepius <corsepiu@faw.uni-ulm.de>

        * 3c509/Makefile.am, clock/Makefile.am, console/Makefile.am,
        ne2000/Makefile.am, start/Makefile.am, startup/Makefile.am,
        timer/Makefile.am, wd8003/Makefile.am, wrapup/Makefile.am: Include
        compile.am

2000-08-30      Joel Sherrill <joel@OARcorp.com>

        * console/keyboard.h: Changed numerous routines from extern inline
        to static inline.

2000-08-26  Rosimildo da Silva  <rdasilva@connecttel.com>

        * Major rework of the "/dev/console" driver. 
        * Added termios support for stdin ( keyboard ). 
        * Added ioctls() to support modes similar to Linux( XLATE,
        RAW, MEDIUMRAW ).
        * Added Keyboard mapping and handling of the keyboard's leds.
        * Added Micro FrameBuffer driver ( "/dev/fb0" ) for bare VGA 
        controller ( 16 colors ). 
        * Added PS/2 and Serial mouse support for PC386 BSP. 
        * console/defkeymap.c: New file.
        * console/fb_vga.c: New file.
        * console/fb_vga.h: New file.
        * console/i386kbd.h: New file.
        * console/kd.h: New file.
        * console/keyboard.c: New file.
        * console/keyboard.h: New file.
        * console/mouse_parser.c: New file.
        * console/mouse_parser.h: New file.
        * console/pc_keyb.c: New file.
        * console/ps2_drv.h: New file.
        * console/ps2_mouse.c: New file.
        * console/ps2_mouse.h: New file.
        * console/serial_mouse.c: New file.
        * console/serial_mouse.h: New file.
        * console/vgainit.c: New file.
        * console/vt.c: New file.
        * console/Makefile.am: Reflect new files.
        * console/console.c, console/inch.c, console/outch.c: Console
        functionality modifications.
        * startup/Makefile.am: Pick up tty_drv.c and gdb_glue.c
