PCMCIA Network device configuration

PCMCIA network device support[]

Option: NET_PCMCIA
- Kernel Versions: 2.6.15.6 ...
- (on/off) PCMCIA network device support
  Say Y if you would like to include support for any PCMCIA or CardBus network adapters, then say Y to the driver for your particular card below. PCMCIA- or PC-cards are credit-card size devices often used with laptops computers; CardBus is the newer and faster version of PCMCIA.
  
  To use your PC-cards, you will need supporting software from David Hinds' pcmcia-cs package (see the file <file:Documentation/Changes> for location). You also want to check out the PCMCIA-HOWTO, available from <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
  
  If unsure, say N.

Option: PCMCIA_3C589
- Kernel Versions: 2.6.15.6 ...
- (on/off/module) 3Com 3c589 PCMCIA support
- depends on NET_PCMCIA && PCMCIA
  Say Y here if you intend to attach a 3Com 3c589 or compatible PCMCIA (PC-card) Ethernet card to your computer.
  
  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be called 3c589_cs. If unsure, say N.

Option: PCMCIA_3C574
- Kernel Versions: 2.6.15.6 ...
- (on/off/module) 3Com 3c574 PCMCIA support
- depends on NET_PCMCIA && PCMCIA
  Say Y here if you intend to attach a 3Com 3c574 or compatible PCMCIA (PC-card) Fast Ethernet card to your computer.
  
  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be called 3c574_cs. If unsure, say N.

Option: PCMCIA_FMVJ18X
- Kernel Versions: 2.6.15.6 ...
- (on/off/module) Fujitsu FMV-J18x PCMCIA support
- depends on NET_PCMCIA && PCMCIA
- select CRC32
  Say Y here if you intend to attach a Fujitsu FMV-J18x or compatible PCMCIA (PC-card) Ethernet card to your computer.
  
  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be called fmvj18x_cs. If unsure, say N.

Option: PCMCIA_PCNET
- Kernel Versions: 2.6.15.6 ...
- (on/off/module) NE2000 compatible PCMCIA support
- depends on NET_PCMCIA && PCMCIA
- select CRC32
  Say Y here if you intend to attach an NE2000 compatible PCMCIA (PC-card) Ethernet or Fast Ethernet card to your computer.
  
  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be called pcnet_cs. If unsure, say N.

Option: PCMCIA_NMCLAN
- Kernel Versions: 2.6.15.6 ...
- (on/off/module) New Media PCMCIA support
- depends on NET_PCMCIA && PCMCIA
  Say Y here if you intend to attach a New Media Ethernet or LiveWire PCMCIA (PC-card) Ethernet card to your computer.
  
  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be called nmclan_cs. If unsure, say N.

Option: PCMCIA_SMC91C92
- Kernel Versions: 2.6.15.6 ...
- (on/off/module) SMC 91Cxx PCMCIA support
- depends on NET_PCMCIA && PCMCIA
- select CRC32
- select MII
  Say Y here if you intend to attach an SMC 91Cxx compatible PCMCIA (PC-card) Ethernet or Fast Ethernet card to your computer.
  
  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be called smc91c92_cs. If unsure, say N.

Option: PCMCIA_XIRC2PS
- Kernel Versions: 2.6.15.6 ...
- (on/off/module) Xircom 16-bit PCMCIA support
- depends on NET_PCMCIA && PCMCIA
  Say Y here if you intend to attach a Xircom 16-bit PCMCIA (PC-card) Ethernet or Fast Ethernet card to your computer.
  
  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be called xirc2ps_cs. If unsure, say N.

Option: PCMCIA_AXNET
- Kernel Versions: 2.6.15.6 ...
- (on/off/module) Asix AX88190 PCMCIA support
- depends on NET_PCMCIA && PCMCIA
  Say Y here if you intend to attach an Asix AX88190-based PCMCIA (PC-card) Fast Ethernet card to your computer. These cards are nearly NE2000 compatible but need a separate driver due to a few misfeatures.
  
  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be called axnet_cs. If unsure, say N.

Option: ARCNET_COM20020_CS
- Kernel Versions: 2.6.15.6 ...
- (on/off/module) COM20020 ARCnet PCMCIA support
- depends on NET_PCMCIA && ARCNET_COM20020 && PCMCIA
  Say Y here if you intend to attach this type of ARCnet PCMCIA card to your computer.
  
  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be called com20020_cs. If unsure, say N.

Option: PCMCIA_IBMTR
- Kernel Versions: 2.6.15.6 ...
- (on/off/module) IBM PCMCIA tokenring adapter support
- depends on NET_PCMCIA && IBMTR!=y && TR && PCMCIA && !64BIT
  Say Y here if you intend to attach this type of Token Ring PCMCIA card to your computer. You then also need to say Y to "Token Ring driver support".
  
  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be called ibmtr_cs.
