35 The Extended Industry Standard Architecture (EISA) bus was
36 developed as an open alternative to the IBM MicroChannel bus.
38 The EISA bus provided some of the features of the IBM MicroChannel
39 bus while maintaining backward compatibility with cards made for
40 the older ISA bus. The EISA bus saw limited use between 1988 and
41 1995 when it was made obsolete by the PCI bus.
43 Say Y here if you are building a kernel for an EISA-based machine.
50 MicroChannel Architecture is found in some IBM PS/2 machines and
51 laptops. It is a bus system similar to PCI or ISA. See
52 <file:Documentation/mca.txt> (and especially the web page given
53 there) before attempting to build an MCA bus kernel.
58 Say Y here if you want to attach PCMCIA- or PC-cards to your Linux
59 computer. These are credit-card size devices such as network cards,
60 modems or hard drives often used with laptops computers. There are
61 actually two varieties of these cards: the older 16 bit PCMCIA cards
62 and the newer 32 bit CardBus cards. If you want to use CardBus
63 cards, you need to say Y here and also to "CardBus support" below.
65 To use your PC-cards, you will need supporting software from David
66 Hinds' pcmcia-cs package (see the file <file:Documentation/Changes>
67 for location). Please also read the PCMCIA-HOWTO, available from
68 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
70 To compile this driver as modules, choose M here: the
71 modules will be called pcmcia_core and ds.
76 This option enables support for the Amiga series of computers. If
77 you plan to use this kernel on an Amiga, say Y here and browse the
78 material available in <file:Documentation/m68k>; otherwise say N.
83 This option enables support for the 68000-based Atari series of
84 computers (including the TT, Falcon and Medusa). If you plan to use
85 this kernel on an Atari, say Y here and browse the material
86 available in <file:Documentation/m68k>; otherwise say N.

92 This option enables support for the Hades Atari clone. If you plan
93 to use this kernel on a Hades, say Y here; otherwise say N.
100 Find out whether you have a PCI motherboard. PCI is the name of a
101 bus system, i.e. the way the CPU talks to the other stuff inside
102 your box. Other bus systems are ISA, EISA, MicroChannel (MCA) or
103 VESA. If you have PCI, say Y, otherwise N.
105 The PCI-HOWTO, available from

113 This option enables support for the Apple Macintosh series of
114 computers (yes, there is experimental support now, at least for part
117 Say N unless you're willing to code the remaining necessary support.
131 bool "Apollo support"
133 Say Y here if you want to run Linux on an MC680x0-based Apollo
134 Domain workstation such as the DN3500.
137 bool "VME (Motorola and BVM) support"
139 Say Y here if you want to build a kernel for a 680x0 based VME
140 board. Boards currently supported include Motorola boards MVME147,
141 MVME162, MVME166, MVME167, MVME172, and MVME177. BVME4000 and
142 BVME6000 boards from BVM Ltd are also supported.
145 bool "MVME147 support"
148 Say Y to include support for early Motorola VME boards. This will
149 build a kernel which can run on MVME147 single-board computers. If
150 you select this option you will have to select the appropriate
151 drivers for SCSI, Ethernet and serial ports later on.
154 bool "MVME162, 166 and 167 support"
157 Say Y to include support for Motorola VME boards. This will build a
158 kernel which can run on MVME162, MVME166, MVME167, MVME172, and
159 MVME177 boards. If you select this option you will have to select
160 the appropriate drivers for SCSI, Ethernet and serial ports later
164 bool "BVME4000 and BVME6000 support"
167 Say Y to include support for VME boards from BVM Ltd. This will
168 build a kernel which can run on BVME4000 and BVME6000 boards. If
169 you select this option you will have to select the appropriate
170 drivers for SCSI, Ethernet and serial ports later on.
173 bool "HP9000/300 support"
175 This option enables support for the HP9000/300 series of
176 workstations. Support for these machines is still very experimental.
177 If you plan to try to use the kernel on such a machine say Y here.
178 Everybody else says N.
181 bool "DIO bus support"
184 Say Y here to enable support for the "DIO" expansion bus used in
185 HP300 machines. If you are using such a system you almost certainly
191 This option enables support for the Sun 3x series of workstations.
192 Be warned that this support is very experimental. You will also want
193 to say Y to 68030 support and N to the other processors below.
194 Note that Sun 3x kernels are not compatible with Sun 3 hardware.
195 General Linux information on the Sun 3x series (now discontinued)
196 is at <http://www.angelfire.com/ca2/tech68k/sun3.html>.
198 If you don't want to compile a kernel for a Sun 3x, say N.
203 This option enables support for the Sun 3 series of workstations
204 (3/50, 3/60, 3/1xx, 3/2xx systems). Enabling this option requires
205 that all other hardware types must be disabled, as Sun 3 kernels
206 are incompatible with all other m68k targets (including Sun 3x!).
207 Also, you will want to say Y to 68020 support and N to the other
210 If you don't want to compile a kernel exclusively for a Sun 3, say N.
213 bool "Q40/Q60 support"
215 The Q40 is a Motorola 68040-based successor to the Sinclair QL
216 manufactured in Germany. There is an official Q40 home page at
217 <http://www.q40.de/>. This option enables support for the Q40 and
218 Q60. Select your CPU below. For 68LC060 don't forget to enable FPU
221 comment "Processor type"
226 If you anticipate running this kernel on a computer with a MC68020
227 processor, say Y. Otherwise, say N. Note that the 68020 requires a
228 68851 MMU (Memory Management Unit) to run Linux/m68k, except on the
229 Sun 3, which provides its own version.
234 If you anticipate running this kernel on a computer with a MC68030
235 processor, say Y. Otherwise, say N. Note that a MC68EC030 will not
236 work, as it does not include an MMU (Memory Management Unit).
241 If you anticipate running this kernel on a computer with a MC68LC040
242 or MC68040 processor, say Y. Otherwise, say N. Note that an
243 MC68EC040 will not work, as it does not include an MMU (Memory

253 bool "Math emulation support (EXPERIMENTAL)"
254 depends on EXPERIMENTAL
256 At some point in the future, this will cause floating-point math
257 instructions to be emulated by the kernel on machines that lack a
258 floating-point math coprocessor. Thrill-seekers and chronically
259 sleep-deprived psychotic hacker types can say Y now, everyone else
260 should probably wait a while.
262 config M68KFPU_EMU_EXTRAPREC
263 bool "Math emulation extra precision"
264 depends on M68KFPU_EMU
266 The fpu uses normally a few bit more during calculations for
267 correct rounding, the emulator can (often) do the same but this
268 extra calculation can cost quite some time, so you can disable
269 it here. The emulator will then "only" calculate with a 64 bit
270 mantissa and round slightly incorrect, what is more then enough
273 config M68KFPU_EMU_ONLY
274 bool "Math emulation only kernel"
275 depends on M68KFPU_EMU
277 This option prevents any floating-point instructions from being
278 compiled into the kernel, thereby the kernel doesn't save any
279 floating point context anymore during task switches, so this
280 kernel will only be usable on machines without a floating-point
281 math coprocessor. This makes the kernel a bit faster as no tests
282 needs to be executed whether a floating-point instruction in the
283 kernel should be executed or not.
286 bool "Advanced configuration options"
288 This gives you access to some advanced options for the CPU. The
289 defaults should be fine for most users, but these options may make
290 it possible for you to improve performance somewhat if you know what
293 Note that the answer to this question won't directly affect the
294 kernel: saying N will just cause the configurator to skip all
295 the questions about these options.
297 Most users should say N to this question.
300 bool "Use read-modify-write instructions"
303 This allows to use certain instructions that work with indivisible
304 read-modify-write bus cycles. While this is faster than the
305 workaround of disabling interrupts, it can conflict with DMA
306 ( = direct memory access) on many Amiga systems, and it is also said
307 to destabilize other machines. It is very likely that this will
308 cause serious problems on any Amiga or Atari Medusa if set. The only
309 configuration where it should work are 68030-based Ataris, where it
310 apparently improves performance. But you've been warned! Unless you
311 really know what you are doing, say N. Try Y only if you're quite
314 config SINGLE_MEMORY_CHUNK
315 bool "Use one physical chunk of memory only"
316 depends on ADVANCED && !SUN3
318 Ignore all but the first contiguous chunk of physical memory for VM
319 purposes. This will save a few bytes kernel size and may speed up
320 some operations. Say N if not sure.
322 config 060_WRITETHROUGH
323 bool "Use write-through caching for 68060 supervisor accesses"
324 depends on ADVANCED && M68060
326 The 68060 generally uses copyback caching of recently accessed data.
327 Copyback caching means that memory writes will be held in an on-chip
328 cache and only written back to memory some time later. Saying Y
329 here will force supervisor (kernel) accesses to use writethrough
330 caching. Writethrough caching means that data is written to memory
331 straight away, so that cache and memory data always agree.
332 Writethrough caching is less efficient, but is needed for some
333 drivers on 68060 based systems where the 68060 bus snooping signal
334 is hardwired on. The 53c710 SCSI driver is known to suffer from
342 source "fs/Kconfig.binfmt"
345 bool "Amiga Zorro (AutoConfig) bus support"
348 This enables support for the Zorro bus in the Amiga. If you have
349 expansion cards in your Amiga that conform to the Amiga
350 AutoConfig(tm) specification, say Y, otherwise N. Note that even
351 expansion cards that do not fit in the Zorro slots but fit in e.g.
352 the CPU slot may fall in this category, so you have to say Y to let
356 bool "Amiga 1200/600 PCMCIA support (EXPERIMENTAL)"
357 depends on AMIGA && EXPERIMENTAL
359 Include support in the kernel for pcmcia on Amiga 1200 and Amiga
360 600. If you intend to use pcmcia cards say Y; otherwise say N.
363 bool "Support for ST-RAM as swap space"
364 depends on ATARI && BROKEN
366 Some Atari 68k macines (including the 520STF and 1020STE) divide
367 their addressible memory into ST and TT sections. The TT section
368 (up to 512MB) is the main memory; the ST section (up to 4MB) is
369 accessible to the built-in graphics board, runs slower, and is
370 present mainly for backward compatibility with older machines.
372 This enables support for using (parts of) ST-RAM as swap space,
373 instead of as normal system memory. This can first enhance system
374 performance if you have lots of alternate RAM (compared to the size
375 of ST-RAM), because executable code always will reside in faster
376 memory. ST-RAM will remain as ultra-fast swap space. On the other
377 hand, it allows much improved dynamic allocations of ST-RAM buffers
378 for device driver modules (e.g. floppy, ACSI, SLM printer, DMA
379 sound). The probability that such allocations at module load time
380 fail is drastically reduced.
383 bool "ST-RAM statistics in /proc"
386 Say Y here to report ST-RAM usage statistics in /proc/stram. See
387 the help for CONFIG_STRAM_SWAP for discussion of ST-RAM and its
391 bool "Use power LED as a heartbeat" if AMIGA || APOLLO || ATARI || MAC ||Q40
392 default y if !AMIGA && !APOLLO && !ATARI && !MAC && !Q40 && HP300
394 Use the power-on LED on your machine as a load meter. The exact
395 behavior is platform-dependent, but normally the flash frequency is
396 a hyperbolic function of the 5-minute load average.
398 # We have a dedicated heartbeat LED. :-)
400 bool "/proc/hardware support"
402 Say Y here to support the /proc/hardware file, which gives you
403 access to information about the machine you're running on,
404 including the model, CPU, MMU, clock speed, BogoMIPS rating,
408 tristate "Parallel port support (EXPERIMENTAL)"
409 depends on EXPERIMENTAL
411 If you want to use devices connected to your machine's parallel port
412 (the connector at the computer with 25 holes), e.g. printer, ZIP
413 drive, PLIP link (Parallel Line Internet Protocol is mainly used to
414 create a mini network by connecting the parallel ports of two local
415 machines) etc., then you need to say Y here; please read
416 <file:Documentation/parport.txt> and
417 <file:drivers/parport/BUGS-parport>.
419 For extensive information about drivers for many devices attaching
420 to the parallel port see <http://www.torque.net/linux-pp.html> on
423 It is possible to share a single parallel port among several devices
424 and it is safe to compile all the corresponding drivers into the
425 kernel. To compile parallel port support as a module, choose M here:
426 the module will be called parport.
427 If you have more than one parallel port and want to specify which
428 port and IRQ to be used by this driver at module load time, take a
429 look at <file:Documentation/parport.txt>.
434 tristate "Amiga builtin port"
435 depends on AMIGA && PARPORT
437 Say Y here if you need support for the parallel port hardware on
438 Amiga machines. This code is also available as a module (say M),
439 called parport_amiga. If in doubt, saying N is the safe plan.
442 tristate "Multiface III parallel port"

445 Say Y here if you need parallel port support for the MFC3 card.
446 This code is also available as a module (say M), called
447 parport_mfc3. If in doubt, saying N is the safe plan.
451 depends on Q40 && PARPORT
454 You should say Y here if you have a PC-style parallel port. All IBM
455 PC compatible computers and some Alphas have PC-style parallel
458 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
459 module will be called parport_pc.
464 tristate "Atari builtin port"
465 depends on ATARI && PARPORT
467 Say Y here if you need support for the parallel port hardware on
468 Atari machines. This code is also available as a module (say M),
469 called parport_atari. If in doubt, saying N is the safe plan.
472 tristate "Parallel printer support"
475 If you intend to attach a printer to the parallel port of your Linux
476 box (as opposed to using a serial printer; if the connector at the
477 printer has 9 or 25 holes ["female"], then it's serial), say Y.
478 Also read the Printing-HOWTO, available from
479 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
481 It is possible to share one parallel port among several devices
482 (e.g. printer and ZIP drive) and it is safe to compile the
483 corresponding drivers into the kernel.
484 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here and read
485 <file:Documentation/parport.txt>. The module will be called lp.
487 If you have several parallel ports, you can specify which ports to
488 use with the "lp" kernel command line option. (Try "man bootparam"
489 or see the documentation of your boot loader (lilo or loadlin) about
490 how to pass options to the kernel at boot time.) The syntax of the
491 "lp" command line option can be found in <file:drivers/char/lp.c>.
493 If you have more than 8 printers, you need to increase the LP_NO
494 macro in lp.c and the PARPORT_MAX macro in parport.h.
497 bool "IEEE 1284 transfer modes"
500 If you have a printer that supports status readback or device ID, or
501 want to use a device that uses enhanced parallel port transfer modes
502 such as EPP and ECP, say Y here to enable advanced IEEE 1284
503 transfer modes. Also say Y if you want device ID information to
504 appear in /proc/sys/dev/parport/*/autoprobe*. It is safe to say N.

557 here are those that are setting up dedicated Ethernet WWW/FTP
558 servers, or users that have one of the various bus mice instead of a
559 serial mouse and don't intend to use their machine's standard serial
560 port for anything. (Note that the Cyclades and Stallion multi
561 serial port drivers do not need this driver built in for them to
564 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
565 module will be called serial.
566 [WARNING: Do not compile this driver as a module if you are using
567 non-standard serial ports, since the configuration information will
568 be lost when the driver is unloaded. This limitation may be lifted
571 BTW1: If you have a mouseman serial mouse which is not recognized by
572 the X window system, try running gpm first.
574 BTW2: If you intend to use a software modem (also called Winmodem)
575 under Linux, forget it. These modems are crippled and require
576 proprietary drivers which are only available under Windows.
578 Most people will say Y or M here, so that they can use serial mice,
579 modems and similar devices connecting to the standard serial ports.
581 config SERIAL_EXTENDED
582 bool "Extended dumb serial driver options"
585 If you wish to use any non-standard features of the standard "dumb"

587 interrupts, special multiport support, support for more than the
588 four COM 1/2/3/4 boards, etc.
590 Note that the answer to this question won't directly affect the
591 kernel: saying N will just cause the configurator to skip all
592 the questions about serial driver options. If unsure, say N.
594 config SERIAL_MANY_PORTS
595 bool "Support more than 4 serial ports"
596 depends on SERIAL_EXTENDED
598 Say Y here if you have dumb serial boards other than the four
599 standard COM 1/2/3/4 ports. This may happen if you have an AST
600 FourPort, Accent Async, Boca (read the Boca mini-HOWTO, available
601 from <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>), or other custom
602 serial port hardware which acts similar to standard serial port
603 hardware. If you only use the standard COM 1/2/3/4 ports, you can
604 say N here to save some memory. You can also say Y if you have an
605 "intelligent" multiport card such as Cyclades, Digiboards, etc.
607 config SERIAL_SHARE_IRQ
608 bool "Support for sharing serial interrupts"
609 depends on SERIAL_EXTENDED
611 Some serial boards have hardware support which allows multiple dumb
612 serial ports on the same board to share a single IRQ. To enable
613 support for this in the serial driver, say Y here.
615 config SERIAL_MULTIPORT
616 bool "Support special multiport boards"
617 depends on SERIAL_EXTENDED
619 Some multiport serial ports have special ports which are used to
620 signal when there are any serial ports on the board which need
621 servicing. Say Y here to enable the serial driver to take advantage
622 of those special I/O ports.
625 bool "Support the Bell Technologies HUB6 card"
626 depends on SERIAL_EXTENDED
628 Say Y here to enable support in the dumb serial driver to support
632 bool "Virtual terminal"
634 If you say Y here, you will get support for terminal devices with
635 display and keyboard devices. These are called "virtual" because you
636 can run several virtual terminals (also called virtual consoles) on
637 one physical terminal. This is rather useful, for example one
638 virtual terminal can collect system messages and warnings, another
639 one can be used for a text-mode user session, and a third could run
640 an X session, all in parallel. Switching between virtual terminals
641 is done with certain key combinations, usually Alt-<function key>.
643 The setterm command ("man setterm") can be used to change the
644 properties (such as colors or beeping) of a virtual terminal. The
645 man page console_codes(4) ("man console_codes") contains the special
646 character sequences that can be used to change those properties
647 directly. The fonts used on virtual terminals can be changed with
648 the setfont ("man setfont") command and the key bindings are defined
649 with the loadkeys ("man loadkeys") command.
651 You need at least one virtual terminal device in order to make use
652 of your keyboard and monitor. Therefore, only people configuring an
653 embedded system would want to say N here in order to save some
654 memory; the only way to log into such a system is then via a serial
655 or network connection.
657 If unsure, say Y, or else you won't be able to do much with your new
658 shiny Linux system :-)
661 bool "Support for console on virtual terminal"
664 The system console is the device which receives all kernel messages
665 and warnings and which allows logins in single user mode. If you
666 answer Y here, a virtual terminal (the device used to interact with
667 a physical terminal) can be used as system console. This is the most
668 common mode of operations, so you should say Y here unless you want
669 the kernel messages be output only to a serial port (in which case
670 you should say Y to "Console on serial port", below).
672 If you do say Y here, by default the currently visible virtual
673 terminal (/dev/tty0) will be used as system console. You can change
674 that with a kernel command line option such as "console=tty3" which
675 would use the third virtual terminal as system console. (Try "man
676 bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot loader (lilo or
677 loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at boot time.)
691 If you say Y here and create a character special file /dev/nvram
692 with major number 10 and minor number 144 using mknod ("man mknod"),
693 you get read and write access to the 50 bytes of non-volatile memory
694 in the real time clock (RTC), which is contained in every PC and
697 This memory is conventionally called "CMOS RAM" on PCs and "NVRAM"
698 on Ataris. /dev/nvram may be used to view settings there, or to
699 change them (with some utility). It could also be used to frequently
700 save a few bits of very important data that may not be lost over
701 power-off and for which writing to disk is too insecure. Note
702 however that most NVRAM space in a PC belongs to the BIOS and you
703 should NEVER idly tamper with it. See Ralf Brown's interrupt list
704 for a guide to the use of CMOS bytes by your BIOS.
706 On Atari machines, /dev/nvram is always configured and does not need

717 Linux, say Y. The driver equally supports all kinds of MFP serial
718 ports and automatically detects whether Serial1 is available.
720 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here.
722 Note for Falcon users: You also have an MFP port, it's just not
723 wired to the outside... But you could use the port under Linux.
726 tristate "Atari SCC serial support"
729 If you have serial ports based on a Zilog SCC chip (Modem2, Serial2,
730 LAN) and like to use them under Linux, say Y. All built-in SCC's are
731 supported (TT, MegaSTE, Falcon), and also the ST-ESCC. If you have
732 two connectors for channel A (Serial2 and LAN), they are visible as
733 two separate devices.
735 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here.
738 bool "Atari SCC serial DMA support"
741 This enables DMA support for receiving data on channel A of the SCC.

791 tristate "Commodore A2232 serial support (EXPERIMENTAL)"
792 depends on AMIGA && EXPERIMENTAL
794 This option supports the 2232 7-port serial card shipped with the
795 Amiga 2000 and other Zorro-bus machines, dating from 1989. At
796 a max of 19,200 bps, the ports are served by a 6551 ACIA UART chip
797 each, plus a 8520 CIA, and a master 6502 CPU and buffer as well. The
798 ports were connected with 8 pin DIN connectors on the card bracket,
799 for which 8 pin to DB25 adapters were supplied. The card also had
800 jumpers internally to toggle various pinning configurations.
802 This driver can be built as a module; but then "generic_serial"
803 will also be built as a module. This has to be loaded before
804 "ser_a2232". If you want to do this, answer M here.

825 IO-Extender card, N otherwise.
828 tristate "Macintosh serial support"
832 bool "Apple Desktop Bus (ADB) support"
835 Apple Desktop Bus (ADB) support is for support of devices which
836 are connected to an ADB port. ADB devices tend to have 4 pins.
837 If you have an Apple Macintosh prior to the iMac, or a
838 "Blue and White G3", you probably want to say Y here. Otherwise
842 bool "Include Mac II ADB driver"
845 Say Y here if want your kernel to support Macintosh systems that use
846 the Mac II style ADB. This includes the II, IIx, IIcx, SE/30, IIci,
847 Quadra 610, Quadra 650, Quadra 700, Quadra 800, Centris 610 and
851 bool "Include Mac IIsi ADB driver"
854 Say Y here if want your kernel to support Macintosh systems that use
855 the Mac IIsi style ADB. This includes the IIsi, IIvi, IIvx, Classic
856 II, LC, LC II, LC III, Performa 460, and the Performa 600.
859 bool "Include CUDA ADB driver"
862 This provides support for CUDA based Power Macintosh systems. This
863 includes most OldWorld PowerMacs, the first generation iMacs, the
864 Blue&White G3 and the Yikes G4 (PCI Graphics). All later models
865 should use CONFIG_ADB_PMU instead.
870 bool "Include IOP (IIfx/Quadra 9x0) ADB driver"
873 The I/O Processor (IOP) is an Apple custom IC designed to provide
874 intelligent support for I/O controllers. It is described at

876 support for it, say 'Y' here.
879 bool "Include PMU (Powerbook) ADB driver"
882 Say Y here if want your kernel to support the m68k based Powerbooks.
883 This includes the PowerBook 140, PowerBook 145, PowerBook 150,

890 bool "Use input layer for ADB devices"
891 depends on MAC && INPUT=y
893 Say Y here if you want to have ADB (Apple Desktop Bus) HID devices
894 such as keyboards, mice, joysticks, or graphic tablets handled by
895 the input layer. If you say Y here, make sure to say Y to the
896 corresponding drivers "Keyboard support" (CONFIG_INPUT_KEYBDEV),
897 "Mouse Support" (CONFIG_INPUT_MOUSEDEV) and "Event interface
898 support" (CONFIG_INPUT_EVDEV) as well.

901 keyboard and mouse drivers.
907 depends on INPUT_ADBHID
910 config MAC_ADBKEYCODES
911 bool "Support for ADB raw keycodes"
912 depends on INPUT_ADBHID
914 This provides support for sending raw ADB keycodes to console
915 devices. This is the default up to 2.4.0, but in future this may be
916 phased out in favor of generic Linux keycodes. If you say Y here,
917 you can dynamically switch via the
918 /proc/sys/dev/mac_hid/keyboard_sends_linux_keycodes
919 sysctl and with the "keyboard_sends_linux_keycodes=" kernel
922 If unsure, say Y here.
924 config MAC_EMUMOUSEBTN
925 bool "Support for mouse button 2+3 emulation"
926 depends on INPUT_ADBHID
928 This provides generic support for emulating the 2nd and 3rd mouse
929 button with keypresses. If you say Y here, the emulation is still
930 disabled by default. The emulation is controlled by these sysctl
932 /proc/sys/dev/mac_hid/mouse_button_emulation

934 /proc/sys/dev/mac_hid/mouse_button3_keycode
937 bool "Support for ADB keyboard (old driver)"
938 depends on MAC && !INPUT_ADBHID
940 This option allows you to use an ADB keyboard attached to your
941 machine. Note that this disables any other (ie. PS/2) keyboard
942 support, even if your machine is physically capable of using both at
945 If you use an ADB keyboard (4 pin connector), say Y here.
946 If you use a PS/2 keyboard (6 pin connector), say N here.
949 tristate "HP DCA serial support"

956 bool "SCC support for MVME147 serial ports"
959 This is the driver for the serial ports on the Motorola MVME147
960 boards. Everyone using one of these boards should say Y here.

974 This is the driver for the serial ports on the Motorola MVME162 and
975 172 boards. Everyone using one of these boards should say Y here.
978 bool "SCC support for BVME6000 serial ports"

993 If you say Y here, it will be possible to use a serial port as the
994 system console (the system console is the device which receives all
995 kernel messages and warnings and which allows logins in single user
996 mode). This could be useful if some terminal or printer is connected
999 Even if you say Y here, the currently visible virtual console
1000 (/dev/tty0) will still be used as the system console by default, but
1001 you can alter that using a kernel command line option such as
1002 "console=ttyS1". (Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of
1003 your boot loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the
1004 kernel at boot time.)
1006 If you don't have a VGA card installed and you say Y here, the
1007 kernel will automatically use the first serial line, /dev/ttyS0, as

1021 If you say Y here and create a character special file /dev/rtc with
1022 major number 10 and minor number 135 using mknod ("man mknod"), you
1023 will get access to the real time clock (or hardware clock) built
1026 It reports status information via the file /proc/driver/rtc and its
1027 behaviour is set by various ioctls on /dev/rtc. If you enable the
1028 "extended RTC operation" below it will also provide an emulation
1029 for RTC_UIE which is required by some programs and may improve
1030 precision in some cases.
1032 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
1033 module will be called genrtc.
1036 bool "Extended RTC operation"
1039 Provides an emulation for RTC_UIE which is required by some programs
1040 and may improve precision of the generic RTC support in some cases.
1043 bool "Unix98 PTY support"
1045 A pseudo terminal (PTY) is a software device consisting of two
1046 halves: a master and a slave. The slave device behaves identical to
1047 a physical terminal; the master device is used by a process to
1048 read data from and write data to the slave, thereby emulating a
1049 terminal. Typical programs for the master side are telnet servers
1052 Linux has traditionally used the BSD-like names /dev/ptyxx for
1053 masters and /dev/ttyxx for slaves of pseudo terminals. This scheme
1054 has a number of problems. The GNU C library glibc 2.1 and later,
1055 however, supports the Unix98 naming standard: in order to acquire a
1056 pseudo terminal, a process opens /dev/ptmx; the number of the pseudo
1057 terminal is then made available to the process and the pseudo
1058 terminal slave can be accessed as /dev/pts/<number>. What was
1059 traditionally /dev/ttyp2 will then be /dev/pts/2, for example.
1061 The entries in /dev/pts/ are created on the fly by a virtual
1062 file system; therefore, if you say Y here you should say Y to
1063 "/dev/pts file system for Unix98 PTYs" as well.
1065 If you want to say Y here, you need to have the C library glibc 2.1
1066 or later (equal to libc-6.1, check with "ls -l /lib/libc.so.*").
1067 Read the instructions in <file:Documentation/Changes> pertaining to
1068 pseudo terminals. It's safe to say N.
1070 config UNIX98_PTY_COUNT
1071 int "Maximum number of Unix98 PTYs in use (0-2048)"
1072 depends on UNIX98_PTYS
1075 The maximum number of Unix98 PTYs that can be used at any one time.
1076 The default is 256, and should be enough for desktop systems. Server
1077 machines which support incoming telnet/rlogin/ssh connections and/or
1078 serve several X terminals may want to increase this: every incoming
1079 connection and every xterm uses up one PTY.
1081 When not in use, each additional set of 256 PTYs occupy
1082 approximately 8 KB of kernel memory on 32-bit architectures.

1103 will be able to flush the buffer cache to disk, reboot the system
1104 immediately or dump some status information). This is accomplished
1105 by pressing various keys while holding SysRq (Alt+PrintScreen). It
1106 also works on a serial console (on PC hardware at least), if you
1107 send a BREAK and then within 5 seconds a command keypress. The
1108 keys are documented in <file:Documentation/sysrq.txt>. Don't say Y
