     I am looking for the  interface  specification  to  the
802.2  LLC layer on PCs when talking to token-ring or ether-
net cards.  It seems that nobody knows this information.   I
have  tried  calling  various  card manufacturers, including
Proteon, 3Com and IBM, and they are either unable or  unwil-
ling to help me.

     In particular, I need to know the following:

        - What is the format of the paramter block for all
          the 802.2 commands (ie. Open, Transmit, Receive,
          Open.SAP, etc.)
        - What registers need to be setup before the call.
        - What is the interrupt that is called.

     If anyone knows how this interface works or knows where
I can get some documentation on it could they please send me
some Email?

     Thanks in advance.
