To compile parallel port support as a module, choose M here: 27 the module will be called parport. 28 If you have more than one parallel port and want to specify which 29 port and IRQ to be used by this driver at module load time, take a 30 look at <file:Documentation/parport.txt>. 31 32 If unsure, say Y. 33 34if PARPORT 35 36config PARPORT_PC 37 tristate "PC-style hardware" 38 depends on (!SPARC64 || PCI) && !SPARC32 && !M32R && !FRV && \ 39 (!M68K || ISA) && !MN10300 && !AVR32 40 ---help--- 41 You should say Y here if you have a PC-style parallel port. All 42 IBM PC compatible computers and some Alphas have PC-style 43 parallel ports. PA-RISC owners should only say Y here if they 44 have a SuperIO parallel port. 45 46 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the 47 module will be called parport_pc. 48 49 If unsure, say Y. 50 51config PARPORT_SERIAL 52 tristate "Multi-IO cards (parallel and serial)" 53 depends on SERIAL_8250_PCI && PARPORT_PC && PCI 54 help 55 This adds support for multi-IO PCI cards that have parallel and 56 serial ports. You should say Y or M here. If you say M, the module 57 will be called parport_serial. 58 59config PARPORT_PC_FIFO 60 bool "Use FIFO/DMA if available (EXPERIMENTAL)" 61 depends on PARPORT_PC && EXPERIMENTAL 62 help 63 Many parallel port chipsets provide hardware that can speed up 64 printing. Say Y here if you want to take advantage of that. 65 66 As well as actually having a FIFO, or DMA capability, the kernel 67 will need to know which IRQ the parallel port has. By default, 68 parallel port interrupts will not be used, and so neither will the 69 FIFO. See <file:Documentation/parport.txt> to find out how to 70 specify which IRQ/DMA to use. 71 72config PARPORT_PC_SUPERIO 73 bool "SuperIO chipset support (EXPERIMENTAL)" 74 depends on PARPORT_PC && EXPERIMENTAL 75 help 76 Saying Y here enables some probes for Super-IO chipsets in order to 77 find out things like base addresses, IRQ lines and DMA channels. It 78 is safe to say N. 79 80config PARPORT_PC_PCMCIA 81 tristate "Support for PCMCIA management for PC-style ports" 82 depends on PCMCIA && PARPORT_PC 83 help 84 Say Y here if you need PCMCIA support for your PC-style parallel 85 ports. If unsure, say N. 86 87config PARPORT_IP32 88 tristate "SGI IP32 builtin port (EXPERIMENTAL)" 89 depends on SGI_IP32 && EXPERIMENTAL 90 select PARPORT_NOT_PC 91 help 92 Say Y here if you need support for the parallel port on 93 SGI O2 machines. This code is also available as a module (say M), 94 called parport_ip32. If in doubt, saying N is the safe plan. 95 96config PARPORT_AMIGA 97 tristate "Amiga builtin port" 98 depends on AMIGA 99 select PARPORT_NOT_PC 100 help 101 Say Y here if you need support for the parallel port hardware on 102 Amiga machines. This code is also available as a module (say M), 103 called parport_amiga. If in doubt, saying N is the safe plan. 104 105config PARPORT_MFC3 106 tristate "Multiface III parallel port" 107 depends on ZORRO 108 select PARPORT_NOT_PC 109 help 110 Say Y here if you need parallel port support for the MFC3 card. 111 This code is also available as a module (say M), called 112 parport_mfc3. If in doubt, saying N is the safe plan. 113 114config PARPORT_ATARI 115 tristate "Atari hardware" 116 depends on ATARI 117 select PARPORT_NOT_PC 118 help 119 Say Y here if you need support for the parallel port hardware on 120 Atari machines. This code is also available as a module (say M), 121 called parport_atari. If in doubt, saying N is the safe plan. 122 123config PARPORT_GSC 124 tristate 125 default GSC 126 select PARPORT_NOT_PC 127 128config PARPORT_SUNBPP 129 tristate "Sparc hardware (EXPERIMENTAL)" 130 depends on SBUS && 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 137config PARPORT_AX88796 138 tristate "AX88796 Parallel Port" 139 select PARPORT_NOT_PC 140 help 141 Say Y here if you need support for the parallel port hardware on 142 the AX88796 network controller chip. This code is also available 143 as a module (say M), called parport_ax88796. 144 145 The driver is not dependant on the AX88796 network driver, and 146 should not interfere with the networking functions of the chip. 147 148config PARPORT_1284 149 bool "IEEE 1284 transfer modes" 150 help 151 If you have a printer that supports status readback or device ID, or 152 want to use a device that uses enhanced parallel port transfer modes 153 such as EPP and ECP, say Y here to enable advanced IEEE 1284 154 transfer modes. Also say Y if you want device ID information to 155 appear in /proc/sys/dev/parport/*/autoprobe*. It is safe to say N. 156 157config PARPORT_NOT_PC 158 bool 159 160endif # PARPORT 161
