8 depends on EXPERIMENTAL
10 IEEE 1394 describes a high performance serial bus, which is also
11 known as FireWire(tm) or i.Link(tm) and is used for connecting all
12 sorts of devices (most notably digital video cameras) to your
15 If you have FireWire hardware and want to use it, say Y here. This
16 is the core support only, you will also need to select a driver for
17 your IEEE 1394 adapter.
19 This is the "JUJU" FireWire stack, an alternative
20 implementation designed for robustness and simplicity.
22 To compile this driver as a module, say M here: the
23 module will be called fw-core.
26 tristate "Support for OHCI FireWire host controllers"
29 Enable this driver if you have a FireWire controller based
30 on the OHCI specification. For all practical purposes, this
31 is the only chipset in use, so say Y here.
33 To compile this driver as a module, say M here: the
34 module will be called fw-ohci.
37 tristate "Support for storage devices (SBP-2 protocol driver)"
40 This option enables you to use SBP-2 devices connected to a
41 FireWire bus. SBP-2 devices include storage devices like
42 harddisks and DVD drives, also some other FireWire devices
45 You should also enable support for disks, CD-ROMs, etc. in the SCSI
46 configuration section.
