>Description:
	This is an update for supported hardware docs.  I installed and tested
	an IOGEAR GUF320 under FreeBSD 5.1 and 5.2.1.  The chipset doesn't
	seem to be listed in the fwohci man page or in the hardware notes.

	The main chip on the card reads:

	ALi
	M5271 A1
	0417 TS05
	EK444401000C

	From dmesg:

fwohci0: vendor=10b9, dev=5253
fwohci0: <1394 Open Host Controller Interface> mem 0xeb800000-0xeb8007ff irq 17 
at device 9.4 on pci0
fwohci0: OHCI version 1.10 (ROM=1)
fwohci0: No. of Isochronous channel is 4.
fwohci0: EUI64 00:90:e6:39:00:00:01:f8
fwohci0: Phy 1394a available S400, 2 ports.
fwohci0: Link S400, max_rec 2048 bytes.
firewire0: <IEEE1394(FireWire) bus> on fwohci0
fwe0: <Ethernet over FireWire> on firewire0
if_fwe0: Fake Ethernet address: 02:90:e6:00:01:f8
sbp0: <SBP-2/SCSI over FireWire> on firewire0
fwohci0: Initiate bus reset
fwohci0: BUS reset
fwohci0: node_id=0xc800ffc0, gen=1, CYCLEMASTER mode
firewire0: 1 nodes, maxhop <= 0, cable IRM = 0 (me)
firewire0: bus manager 0 (me)

	The card works beautifully.  Writes to a LaCie Big Disk 400Gig run at
	up to 22 megs/sec (large files, UFS2 format).

>How-To-Repeat:
	Install IOGEAR GUF320
>Fix:
	Nothing to fix here!
