==== Week 6 ====
=== Wednesday and Thursday,  July 2 and 3rd ===

Completed the asix driver. It works only for D-Link DUB-E100 but not for the Belklin gigabit adapter though both share the same tx/rx routines. They differ only in the initialization part. So obviously I have screwed the initialization part somehow :(

=== Tuesday,  July 1st ===

Work began on writing asix driver. Its not as simple as pegasus though. It handles both Gigabit and Fast Ethernet adapters. The probe part of the driver is ready. MAC address is read properly :)

Completed the pegasus driver. Belklin FSD050 USB Ethernet adapter now usable. Began writing the asix driver. With that a D-Link Adpater and one Belklin FD055 would be usable.
