| 10 | If you have a network (Ethernet) card belonging to this class, say Y |
| 11 | and read the Ethernet-HOWTO, available from |
| 12 | <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. |
| 13 | |
| 14 | Note that the answer to this question doesn't directly affect the |
| 15 | kernel: saying N will just cause the configurator to skip all |
| 16 | the questions about Alteon cards. If you say Y, you will be asked for |
| 17 | your specific card in the following questions. |
| 18 | |

| 21 | config ACENIC |
| 22 | tristate "Alteon AceNIC/3Com 3C985/NetGear GA620 Gigabit support" |
| 23 | depends on PCI |
| 24 | ---help--- |
| 25 | Say Y here if you have an Alteon AceNIC, 3Com 3C985(B), NetGear |
| 26 | GA620, SGI Gigabit or Farallon PN9000-SX PCI Gigabit Ethernet |
| 27 | adapter. The driver allows for using the Jumbo Frame option (9000 |
| 28 | bytes/frame) however it requires that your switches can handle this |
| 29 | as well. To enable Jumbo Frames, add `mtu 9000' to your ifconfig |
| 30 | line. |
| 31 | |
| 32 | To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the |
| 33 | module will be called acenic. |
| 34 | |
| 35 | config ACENIC_OMIT_TIGON_I |
| 36 | bool "Omit support for old Tigon I based AceNICs" |
| 37 | depends on ACENIC |
| 38 | ---help--- |
| 39 | Say Y here if you only have Tigon II based AceNICs and want to leave |
| 40 | out support for the older Tigon I based cards which are no longer |
| 41 | being sold (ie. the original Alteon AceNIC and 3Com 3C985 (non B |
| 42 | version)). This will reduce the size of the driver object by |
| 43 | app. 100KB. If you are not sure whether your card is a Tigon I or a |
| 44 | Tigon II, say N here. |
| 45 | |
| 46 | The safe and default value for this is N. |
