- Sort of. There are two packet drivers for ARCNET. One is basically
- obsolete and claims to be a real ARCNET driver. No one uses it
- except KA9Q, and it uses the old TCP/IP encapsulation. The other is
- ARCETHER, and it claims to be an Ethernet driver and uses the new
- encapsulation for TCP/IP over ARCNET (rfc1201).
