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 SiS devices. If you say Y, you will be asked for
|

your specific card in the following questions.

This is a driver for the Fast Ethernet PCI network cards based on
|
|
the SiS 900 and SiS 7016 chips. The SiS 900 core is also embedded in
|
|
SiS 630 and SiS 540 chipsets.
|
|
|
|
This driver also supports AMD 79C901 HomePNA so that you can use
|
|
your phone line as a network cable.
|
|
|
|
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
|
|
will be called sis900. This is recommended.

Say Y here if you have a SiS 190 PCI Fast Ethernet adapter or

a SiS 191 PCI Gigabit Ethernet adapter. Both are expected to

appear in lan on motherboard designs which are based on SiS 965
|

and SiS 966 south bridge.
