-If no base address is given at boot time, the driver will autoprobe
-ports 0x300, 0x280 and 0x310 (in that order). If no IRQ is given, the driver
-will try to probe for it.
-
-The driver can be used as a loadable module.

-Theoretically, one instance of the driver can now run multiple cards,
-in the standard way (when loading a module, say "modprobe 3c505
-io=0x300,0x340 irq=10,11 dma=6,7" or whatever). I have not tested
-this, though.
-
-The driver may now support revision 2 hardware; the dependency on
-being able to read the host control register has been removed. This
-is also untested, since I don't have a suitable card.

-Known problems:
