|  | 8 | b43 is a driver for the Broadcom 43xx series wireless devices. | 
|  | 9 |  | 
|  | 10 | Check "lspci" for something like | 
|  | 11 | "Broadcom Corporation BCM43XX 802.11 Wireless LAN Controller" | 
|  | 12 | to determine whether you own such a device. | 
|  | 13 |  | 
|  | 14 | This driver supports the new BCM43xx IEEE 802.11G devices, but not | 
|  | 15 | the old IEEE 802.11B devices. Old devices are supported by | 
|  | 16 | the b43legacy driver. | 
|  | 17 | Note that this has nothing to do with the standard that your AccessPoint | 
|  | 18 | supports (A, B, G or a combination). | 
|  | 19 | IEEE 802.11G devices can talk to IEEE 802.11B AccessPoints. | 
|  | 20 |  | 
|  | 21 | It is safe to include both b43 and b43legacy as the underlying glue | 
|  | 22 | layer will automatically load the correct version for your device. | 
|  | 23 |  | 
|  | 24 | This driver uses V4 firmware, which must be installed separately using | 
|  | 25 | b43-fwcutter. | 
|  | 26 |  | 
|  | 27 | This driver can be built as a module (recommended) that will be called "b43". | 
|  | 28 | If unsure, say M. |

|  | 52 | Please note that most PC-CARD devices are _NOT_ 16bit PCMCIA | 
|  | 53 | devices, but 32bit CardBUS devices. CardBUS devices are supported | 
|  | 54 | out of the box by b43. | 
|  | 55 |  | 
|  | 56 | With this config option you can drive b43 cards in | 
|  | 57 | CompactFlash formfactor in a PCMCIA adaptor. | 
|  | 58 | CF b43 cards can sometimes be found in handheld PCs. | 
|  | 59 |  | 
|  | 60 | It's safe to select Y here, even if you don't have a B43 PCMCIA device. | 
|  | 61 |  | 
|  | 62 | If unsure, say N. |
