See patch for grammar nits. Also, I have 2 questions:
1- What does "lair" mean or stand for in the following excerpt?
Setting
.Dv "FE_DEBUG=2"
makes standard debugging codes be included,
setting the amount of logged messages middle.
Messages on lair events and/or questionable conditions
are logged under this setting.
Obvious possibilities popping into mind are "rare" or "layer", but I'm not sure which (if either).
2- Shouldn't the mention of XNS (and IPX?) be removed, given that it's no longer supported in recent kernels?
