The manual pages hold information about the actual supported devices, which is the case for stg(4). The point of this is to avoid having dublicated device lists. Does this resolve the matter, so I can close this PR? - Christian -- Christian Brueffer chris@unixpages.org brueffer@FreeBSD.org GPG Key: http://people.freebsd.org/~brueffer/brueffer.key.asc GPG Fingerprint: A5C8 2099 19FF AACA F41B B29B 6C76 178C A0ED 982D At 12:59 13/1/04, Christian Brueffer wrote: >there is work going on to remove information about specific devices from >the hardware notes and instead link to the according manual pages. > >The manual pages hold information about the actual supported devices, >which is the case for stg(4). > >The point of this is to avoid having dublicated device lists. > >Does this resolve the matter, so I can close this PR?
