11config 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
36config 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
50config 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
58config 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
71config 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
79config 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
86config 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
95config 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
104config 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
113config 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
122config PARPORT_GSC
123	tristate
124	default GSC
125	depends on PARPORT
126	select PARPORT_NOT_PC
127
128config 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
137config 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
149config 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.
