From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Abner
      father of light; i.e., "enlightening", the son of Ner and uncle
      of Saul. He was commander-in-chief of Saul's army (1 Sam. 14:50;
      17:55; 20:25). He first introduced David to the court of Saul
      after the victory over Goliath (1 Sam. 17:57). After the death
      of Saul, David was made king over Judah, and reigned in Hebron.
      Among the other tribes there was a feeling of hostility to
      Judah; and Abner, at the head of Ephraim, fostered this
      hostility in the interest of the house of Saul, whose son
      Ish-bosheth he caused to be proclaimed king (2 Sam. 2:8). A
      state of war existed between these two kings. A battle fatal to
      Abner, who was the leader of Ish-boseth's army, was fought with
      David's army under Joab at Gibeon (2 Sam. 2:12). Abner, escaping
      from the field, was overtaken by Asahel, who was "light of foot
      as a wild roe," the brother of Joab and Abishai, whom he thrust
      through with a back stroke of his spear (2 Sam. 2: 18-32).
     
         Being rebuked by Ish-bosheth for the impropriety of taking to
      wife Rizpah, who had been a concubine of King Saul, he found an
      excuse for going over to the side of David, whom he now
      professed to regard as anointed by the Lord to reign over all
      Israel. David received him favourably, and promised that he
      would have command of the armies. At this time Joab was absent
      from Hebron, but on his return he found what had happened. Abner
      had just left the city; but Joab by a stratagem recalled him,
      and meeting him at the gate of the city on his return, thrust
      him through with his sword (2 Sam. 3:27, 31-39; 4:12. Comp. 1
      Kings 2:5, 32). David lamented in pathetic words the death of
      Abner, "Know ye not that there is a prince and a great man
      fallen this day in Israel?" (2 Sam. 3:33-38.)
     

From Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary (late 1800's) [hitchcock]:
   Abner, father of light
