  11 config PARPORT
  12         tristate "Parallel port support"
  13         ---help---
  14           If you want to use devices connected to your machine's parallel port
  15           (the connector at the computer with 25 holes), e.g. printer, ZIP
  16           drive, PLIP link (Parallel Line Internet Protocol is mainly used to
  17           create a mini network by connecting the parallel ports of two local
  18           machines) etc., then you need to say Y here; please read
  19           <file:Documentation/parport.txt> and
  20           <file:drivers/parport/BUGS-parport>.
  21
  22           For extensive information about drivers for many devices attaching
  23           to the parallel port see <http://www.torque.net/linux-pp.html> on
  24           the WWW.
  25
  26           It is possible to share a single parallel port among several devices
  27           and it is safe to compile all the corresponding drivers into the
  28           kernel. To compile parallel port support as a module, choose M here:
  29           the module will be called parport.
  30           If you have more than one parallel port and want to specify which
  31           port and IRQ to be used by this driver at module load time, take a
  32           look at <file:Documentation/parport.txt>.
  33
  34           If unsure, say Y.
  35
  36 config PARPORT_PC
  37         tristate "PC-style hardware"
  38         depends on PARPORT && (!SPARC64 || PCI) && !SPARC32 && !M32R && !FRV
  39         ---help---
  40           You should say Y here if you have a PC-style parallel port. All
  41           IBM PC compatible computers and some Alphas have PC-style
  42           parallel ports.  PA-RISC owners should only say Y here if they
  43           have a SuperIO parallel port.
  44
  45           To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
  46           module will be called parport_pc.
  47
  48           If unsure, say Y.
  49
  50 config PARPORT_SERIAL
  51         tristate "Multi-IO cards (parallel and serial)"
  52         depends on SERIAL_8250_PCI && PARPORT_PC && PCI
  53         help
  54           This adds support for multi-IO PCI cards that have parallel and
  55           serial ports.  You should say Y or M here.  If you say M, the module
  56           will be called parport_serial.
  57
  58 config PARPORT_PC_FIFO
  59         bool "Use FIFO/DMA if available (EXPERIMENTAL)"
  60         depends on PARPORT_PC && EXPERIMENTAL
  61         help
  62           Many parallel port chipsets provide hardware that can speed up
  63           printing. Say Y here if you want to take advantage of that.
  64
  65           As well as actually having a FIFO, or DMA capability, the kernel
  66           will need to know which IRQ the parallel port has.  By default,
  67           parallel port interrupts will not be used, and so neither will the
  68           FIFO.  See <file:Documentation/parport.txt> to find out how to
  69           specify which IRQ/DMA to use.
  70
  71 config PARPORT_PC_SUPERIO
  72         bool "SuperIO chipset support (EXPERIMENTAL)"
  73         depends on PARPORT_PC && EXPERIMENTAL
  74         help
  75           Saying Y here enables some probes for Super-IO chipsets in order to
  76           find out things like base addresses, IRQ lines and DMA channels.  It
  77           is safe to say N.
  78
  79 config PARPORT_PC_PCMCIA
  80         tristate "Support for PCMCIA management for PC-style ports"
  81         depends on PCMCIA && PARPORT_PC
  82         help
  83           Say Y here if you need PCMCIA support for your PC-style parallel
  84           ports. If unsure, say N.
  85
  86 config PARPORT_IP32
  87         tristate "SGI IP32 builtin port (EXPERIMENTAL)"
  88         depends on SGI_IP32 && PARPORT && EXPERIMENTAL
  89         select PARPORT_NOT_PC
  90         help
  91           Say Y here if you need support for the parallel port on
  92           SGI O2 machines. This code is also available as a module (say M),
  93           called parport_ip32.  If in doubt, saying N is the safe plan.
  94
  95 config PARPORT_AMIGA
  96         tristate "Amiga builtin port"
  97         depends on AMIGA && PARPORT
  98         select PARPORT_NOT_PC
  99         help
 100           Say Y here if you need support for the parallel port hardware on
 101           Amiga machines. This code is also available as a module (say M),
 102           called parport_amiga. If in doubt, saying N is the safe plan.
 103
 104 config PARPORT_MFC3
 105         tristate "Multiface III parallel port"
 106         depends on ZORRO && PARPORT
 107         select PARPORT_NOT_PC
 108         help
 109           Say Y here if you need parallel port support for the MFC3 card.
 110           This code is also available as a module (say M), called
 111           parport_mfc3. If in doubt, saying N is the safe plan.
 112
 113 config PARPORT_ATARI
 114         tristate "Atari hardware"
 115         depends on ATARI && PARPORT
 116         select PARPORT_NOT_PC
 117         help
 118           Say Y here if you need support for the parallel port hardware on
 119           Atari machines. This code is also available as a module (say M),
 120           called parport_atari. If in doubt, saying N is the safe plan.
 121
 122 config PARPORT_GSC

 124         default GSC
 125         depends on PARPORT

 128 config PARPORT_SUNBPP
 129         tristate "Sparc hardware (EXPERIMENTAL)"
 130         depends on SBUS && PARPORT && EXPERIMENTAL
 131         select PARPORT_NOT_PC
 132         help
 133           This driver provides support for the bidirectional parallel port
 134           found on many Sun machines. Note that many of the newer Ultras
 135           actually have pc style hardware instead.
 136
 137 config PARPORT_AX88796
 138         tristate "AX88796 Parallel Port"
 139         depends on PARPORT
 140         select PARPORT_NOT_PC
 141         help
 142           Say Y here if you need support for the parallel port hardware on
 143           the AX88796 network controller chip. This code is also available
 144           as a module (say M), called parport_ax88796.
 145
 146           The driver is not dependant on the AX88796 network driver, and
 147           should not interfere with the networking functions of the chip.
 148
 149 config PARPORT_1284
 150         bool "IEEE 1284 transfer modes"
 151         depends on PARPORT
 152         help
 153           If you have a printer that supports status readback or device ID, or
 154           want to use a device that uses enhanced parallel port transfer modes
 155           such as EPP and ECP, say Y here to enable advanced IEEE 1284
 156           transfer modes. Also say Y if you want device ID information to
 157           appear in /proc/sys/dev/parport/*/autoprobe*. It is safe to say N.
