13 Note that the answer to this question doesn't directly affect the
14 kernel: saying N will just cause the configurator to skip all
15 the questions about 3Com cards. If you say Y, you will be asked for
16 your specific card in the following questions.

23 ---help---
24 If you have a network (Ethernet) card of this type, say Y and read
25 the Ethernet-HOWTO, available from
26 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. Also, consider buying a
27 new card, since the 3c501 is slow, broken, and obsolete: you will
28 have problems. Some people suggest to ping ("man ping") a nearby
29 machine every minute ("man cron") when using this card.

31 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here. The module
32 will be called 3c501.

38 If you have a network (Ethernet) card belonging to the 3Com
39 EtherLinkIII series, say Y and read the Ethernet-HOWTO, available
40 from <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
41
42 If your card is not working you may need to use the DOS
43 setup disk to disable Plug & Play mode, and to select the default
44 media type.

93
94 If you have such a card, say Y and read the Ethernet-HOWTO,
95 available from <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. More
96 specific information is in
97 <file:Documentation/networking/vortex.txt> and in the comments at

124 Say Y here if you have an Alteon AceNIC, 3Com 3C985(B), NetGear
125 GA620, SGI Gigabit or Farallon PN9000-SX PCI Gigabit Ethernet
126 adapter. The driver allows for using the Jumbo Frame option (9000
127 bytes/frame) however it requires that your switches can handle this
128 as well. To enable Jumbo Frames, add `mtu 9000' to your ifconfig
129 line.

132 module will be called acenic.

138 Say Y here if you only have Tigon II based AceNICs and want to leave
139 out support for the older Tigon I based cards which are no longer
140 being sold (ie. the original Alteon AceNIC and 3Com 3C985 (non B
141 version)). This will reduce the size of the driver object by
142 app. 100KB. If you are not sure whether your card is a Tigon I or a
143 Tigon II, say N here.
144
145 The safe and default value for this is N.
