config [31mCONFIG_ARCH_MIGHT_HAVE_PC_PARPORT[0m
bool
help
Select this config option from the architecture Kconfig if
the architecture might have PC parallel port hardware.
menuconfig [31mCONFIG_PARPORT[0m
tristate "Parallel port support"
depends on [31mCONFIG_HAS_IOMEM[0m
---help---
If you want to use devices connected to your machine's parallel port
(the connector at the computer with 25 holes), e.g. printer, ZIP
drive, [31mCONFIG_PLIP[0m link (Parallel Line Internet Protocol is mainly used to
create a mini network by connecting the parallel ports of two local
machines) etc., then you need to say Y here; please read
<file:Documentation/parport.txt> and
<file:drivers/parport/BUGS-parport>.
For extensive information about drivers for many devices attaching
to the parallel port see <http://www.torque.net/linux-pp.html> on
the WWW.
It is possible to share a single parallel port among several devices
and it is safe to compile all the corresponding drivers into the
kernel. To compile parallel port support as a module, choose [31mCONFIG_M[0m here:
the module will be called parport.
If you have more than one parallel port and want to specify which
port and IRQ to be used by this driver at module load time, take a
look at <file:Documentation/parport.txt>.
If unsure, say Y.
if [31mCONFIG_PARPORT[0m
config [31mCONFIG_PARPORT_PC[0m
tristate "PC-style hardware"
depends on [31mCONFIG_ARCH_MIGHT_HAVE_PC_PARPORT[0m
help
You should say Y here if you have a PC-style parallel port. All
IBM PC compatible computers and some Alphas have PC-style
parallel ports. PA-RISC owners should only say Y here if they
have a SuperIO parallel port.
To compile this driver as a module, choose [31mCONFIG_M[0m here: the
module will be called parport_pc.
If unsure, say Y.
config [31mCONFIG_PARPORT_SERIAL[0m
tristate "Multi-IO cards (parallel and serial)"
depends on [31mCONFIG_SERIAL_8250_PCI[0m && [31mCONFIG_PARPORT_PC[0m && [31mCONFIG_PCI[0m
help
This adds support for multi-IO [31mCONFIG_PCI[0m cards that have parallel and
serial ports. You should say Y or [31mCONFIG_M[0m here. If you say [31mCONFIG_M[0m, the module
will be called parport_serial.
config [31mCONFIG_PARPORT_PC_FIFO[0m
bool "Use FIFO/DMA if available"
depends on [31mCONFIG_PARPORT_PC[0m
help
Many parallel port chipsets provide hardware that can speed up
printing. Say Y here if you want to take advantage of that.
As well as actually having a FIFO, or DMA capability, the kernel
will need to know which IRQ the parallel port has. By default,
parallel port interrupts will not be used, and so neither will the
FIFO. See <file:Documentation/parport.txt> to find out how to
specify which IRQ/DMA to use.
config [31mCONFIG_PARPORT_PC_SUPERIO[0m
bool "SuperIO chipset support"
depends on [31mCONFIG_PARPORT_PC[0m && ![31mCONFIG_PARISC[0m
help
Saying Y here enables some probes for Super-IO chipsets in order to
find out things like base addresses, IRQ lines and DMA channels. It
is safe to say N.
config [31mCONFIG_PARPORT_PC_PCMCIA[0m
tristate "Support for PCMCIA management for PC-style ports"
depends on [31mCONFIG_PCMCIA[0m && [31mCONFIG_PARPORT_PC[0m
help
Say Y here if you need [31mCONFIG_PCMCIA[0m support for your PC-style parallel
ports. If unsure, say N.
config [31mCONFIG_PARPORT_IP32[0m
tristate "SGI IP32 builtin port"
depends on [31mCONFIG_SGI_IP32[0m
select [31mCONFIG_PARPORT_NOT_PC[0m
help
Say Y here if you need support for the parallel port on
SGI O2 machines. This code is also available as a module (say [31mCONFIG_M[0m),
called parport_ip32. If in doubt, saying N is the safe plan.
config [31mCONFIG_PARPORT_AMIGA[0m
tristate "Amiga builtin port"
depends on [31mCONFIG_AMIGA[0m
select [31mCONFIG_PARPORT_NOT_PC[0m
help
Say Y here if you need support for the parallel port hardware on
Amiga machines. This code is also available as a module (say [31mCONFIG_M[0m),
called parport_amiga. If in doubt, saying N is the safe plan.
config [31mCONFIG_PARPORT_MFC3[0m
tristate "Multiface III parallel port"
depends on [31mCONFIG_ZORRO[0m
select [31mCONFIG_PARPORT_NOT_PC[0m
help
Say Y here if you need parallel port support for the MFC3 card.
This code is also available as a module (say [31mCONFIG_M[0m), called
parport_mfc3. If in doubt, saying N is the safe plan.
config [31mCONFIG_PARPORT_ATARI[0m
tristate "Atari hardware"
depends on [31mCONFIG_ATARI[0m
select [31mCONFIG_PARPORT_NOT_PC[0m
help
Say Y here if you need support for the parallel port hardware on
Atari machines. This code is also available as a module (say [31mCONFIG_M[0m),
called parport_atari. If in doubt, saying N is the safe plan.
config [31mCONFIG_PARPORT_GSC[0m
tristate
default [31mCONFIG_GSC[0m
select [31mCONFIG_PARPORT_NOT_PC[0m
config [31mCONFIG_PARPORT_SUNBPP[0m
tristate "Sparc hardware"
depends on [31mCONFIG_SBUS[0m
select [31mCONFIG_PARPORT_NOT_PC[0m
help
This driver provides support for the bidirectional parallel port
found on many Sun machines. Note that many of the newer Ultras
actually have pc style hardware instead.
config [31mCONFIG_PARPORT_AX88796[0m
tristate "AX88796 Parallel Port"
select [31mCONFIG_PARPORT_NOT_PC[0m
help
Say Y here if you need support for the parallel port hardware on
the [31mCONFIG_AX88796[0m network controller chip. This code is also available
as a module (say [31mCONFIG_M[0m), called parport_ax88796.
The driver is not dependent on the [31mCONFIG_AX88796[0m network driver, and
should not interfere with the networking functions of the chip.
config [31mCONFIG_PARPORT_1284[0m
bool "IEEE 1284 transfer modes"
help
If you have a printer that supports status readback or device ID, or
want to use a device that uses enhanced parallel port transfer modes
such as EPP and ECP, say Y here to enable advanced IEEE 1284
transfer modes. Also say Y if you want device ID information to
appear in /proc/sys/dev/parport/*/autoprobe*. It is safe to say N.
