This howto made sense in the 1990s when users had to manually configure ISA cards with jumpers or vendor utilities, but with the implementation of PCI it became increasingly less and less relevant, to the point where it has been well over a decade since I last updated it. And there is no value in anyone else taking over updating it either. However the references to it continue to spread as boiler plate text from one Kconfig file into the next. We are not doing end users any favours by pointing them at this old document, so lets kill it with fire, once and for all, to hopefully stop any further spread. No code is changed in this commit, just Kconfig help text. Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

If you have a network (Ethernet) card belonging to this class, say Y.
|

|
|
Note that the answer to this question doesn't directly affect the

kernel: saying N will just cause the configurator to skip all
|
|
the questions about Marvell devices. If you say Y, you will be
|

asked for your specific card in the following questions.

Note that this driver is distinct from the mv643xx_eth

(Dove, Orion, Discovery, Kirkwood).

This driver support the Marvell Yukon or SysKonnect SK-98xx/SK-95xx
|
|
and related Gigabit Ethernet adapters. It is a new smaller driver
|
|
with better performance and more complete ethtool support.
|
|
|
|
It does not support the link failover and network management
|
|
features that "portable" vendor supplied sk98lin driver does.
|
|
|
|
This driver supports adapters based on the original Yukon chipset:
|
|
Marvell 88E8001, Belkin F5D5005, CNet GigaCard, DLink DGE-530T,
|
|
Linksys EG1032/EG1064, 3Com 3C940/3C940B, SysKonnect SK-9871/9872.
|
|
|
|
It does not support the newer Yukon2 chipset: a separate driver,
|
|
sky2, is provided for these adapters.
|
|
|
|
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
|
|
will be called skge. This is recommended.

|

This enables support for the older and uncommon SysKonnect Genesis
|
|
chips, which support MII via an external transceiver, instead of
|
|
an internal one. Disabling this option will save some memory
|
|
by making code smaller. If unsure say Y.
