About these drivers:
--------------------

There are several versions of Ethernet drivers for the Davicom
9100-series chipsets to be found floating about on the internet.
Despite varying labels for them, most or all will, when
examined, prove to be coded internally as v. 1.15, which is not
the latest.

That Davicom chipset is still to be found on Ethernet cards
being sold new (mine was on a CNet PRO200), but not necessarily
with any OS/2 driver included (as my CNet diskette had not).

The driver I found posted at Hobbes was a 1.15 version, and 
either it or one of the two accompanying files was such that it 
simply would not work--it reliably crashed the system at 
every bootup attempt (Warp 4 + FP15).

Eventually, I located the driver in this package, which is 
internally version 1.28, and it worked fine.  This is the latest
driver posted on Davicom's own site, and I much doubt, from the 
2002 date, that there will ever be a later one.

I give no install instructions, as--to me--it is all black 
magic, and I'm glad I finally got it working.  But these files 
are the ones you should try first if you have a card with the 
Davicom 9102 chipset.

Good luck!
