The Neptune-X is a Ethernet interface card initially designed by Hirofumi
Shimada, which uses popular NE2000 or its clone with its own x68k-proprietary
bus to ISA bus bridge.
The NetBSD neptune
driver takes charge of the ISA bridge part of the Neptune-X. It is
implemented as a more generic `bus' with its own
bus_space(9) interface,
and is intended to be used with
ne(4) driver.
The neptune
device appeared in NetBSD
1.4.
neptune
itself is always detected when it is specified
in the kernel config file. This is because the Neptune-X ISA bridge is
transparent to software. The attached device is detected appropriately.
