config VT
bool "Virtual terminal" if EMBEDDED
depends on !S390
select INPUT
default y if !VIOCONS
---help---
If you say Y here, you will get support for terminal devices with
display and keyboard devices. These are called "virtual" because you
can run several virtual terminals (also called virtual consoles) on
one physical terminal. This is rather useful, for example one
virtual terminal can collect system messages and warnings, another
one can be used for a text-mode user session, and a third could run
an X session, all in parallel. Switching between virtual terminals
is done with certain key combinations, usually Alt-<function key>.
The setterm command ("man setterm") can be used to change the
properties (such as colors or beeping) of a virtual terminal. The
man page console_codes(4) ("man console_codes") contains the special
character sequences that can be used to change those properties
directly. The fonts used on virtual terminals can be changed with
the setfont ("man setfont") command and the key bindings are defined
with the loadkeys ("man loadkeys") command.
You need at least one virtual terminal device in order to make use
of your keyboard and monitor. Therefore, only people configuring an
embedded system would want to say N here in order to save some
memory; the only way to log into such a system is then via a serial
or network connection.
If unsure, say Y, or else you won't be able to do much with your new
shiny Linux system :-)
config VT_CONSOLE
bool "Support for console on virtual terminal" if EMBEDDED
depends on VT
default y
---help---
The system console is the device which receives all kernel messages
and warnings and which allows logins in single user mode. If you
answer Y here, a virtual terminal (the device used to interact with
a physical terminal) can be used as system console. This is the most
common mode of operations, so you should say Y here unless you want
the kernel messages be output only to a serial port (in which case
you should say Y to "Console on serial port", below).
If you do say Y here, by default the currently visible virtual
terminal (/dev/tty0) will be used as system console. You can change
that with a kernel command line option such as "console=tty3" which
would use the third virtual terminal as system console. (Try "man
bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot loader (lilo or
loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at boot time.)
If unsure, say Y.
config HW_CONSOLE
bool
depends on VT && !S390 && !UML
default y
config VT_HW_CONSOLE_BINDING
bool "Support for binding and unbinding console drivers"
depends on HW_CONSOLE
default n
---help---
The virtual terminal is the device that interacts with the physical
terminal through console drivers. On these systems, at least one
console driver is loaded. In other configurations, additional console
drivers may be enabled, such as the framebuffer console. If more than
1 console driver is enabled, setting this to 'y' will allow you to
select the console driver that will serve as the backend for the
virtual terminals.
See <file:Documentation/console/console.txt> for more
information. For framebuffer console users, please refer to
<file:Documentation/fb/fbcon.txt>.
config SERIAL_NONSTANDARD
bool "Non-standard serial port support"
depends on HAS_IOMEM
---help---
Say Y here if you have any non-standard serial boards -- boards
which aren't supported using the standard "dumb" serial driver.
This includes intelligent serial boards such as Cyclades,
Digiboards, etc. These are usually used for systems that need many
serial ports because they serve many terminals or dial-in
connections.
Note that the answer to this question won't directly affect the
kernel: saying N will just cause the configurator to skip all
the questions about non-standard serial boards.
Most people can say N here.
config COMPUTONE
tristate "Computone IntelliPort Plus serial support"
depends on SERIAL_NONSTANDARD && (ISA || EISA || PCI)
---help---
This driver supports the entire family of Intelliport II/Plus
controllers with the exception of the MicroChannel controllers and
products previous to the Intelliport II. These are multiport cards,
which give you many serial ports. You would need something like this
to connect more than two modems to your Linux box, for instance in
order to become a dial-in server. If you have a card like that, say
Y here and read <file:Documentation/computone.txt>.
To compile this driver as modules, choose M here: the
modules will be called ip2 and ip2main.
config ROCKETPORT
tristate "Comtrol RocketPort support"
depends on SERIAL_NONSTANDARD && (ISA || EISA || PCI)
help
This driver supports Comtrol RocketPort and RocketModem PCI boards.
These boards provide 2, 4, 8, 16, or 32 high-speed serial ports or
modems. For information about the RocketPort/RocketModem boards
and this driver read <file:Documentation/rocket.txt>.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
module will be called rocket.
If you want to compile this driver into the kernel, say Y here. If
you don't have a Comtrol RocketPort/RocketModem card installed, say N.
config CYCLADES
tristate "Cyclades async mux support"
depends on SERIAL_NONSTANDARD && (PCI || ISA)
select FW_LOADER
---help---
This driver supports Cyclades Z and Y multiserial boards.
You would need something like this to connect more than two modems to
your Linux box, for instance in order to become a dial-in server.
For information about the Cyclades-Z card, read
<file:Documentation/README.cycladesZ>.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
module will be called cyclades.
If you haven't heard about it, it's safe to say N.
config CYZ_INTR
bool "Cyclades-Z interrupt mode operation (EXPERIMENTAL)"
depends on EXPERIMENTAL && CYCLADES
help
The Cyclades-Z family of multiport cards allows 2 (two) driver op
modes: polling and interrupt. In polling mode, the driver will check
the status of the Cyclades-Z ports every certain amount of time
(which is called polling cycle and is configurable). In interrupt
mode, it will use an interrupt line (IRQ) in order to check the
status of the Cyclades-Z ports. The default op mode is polling. If
unsure, say N.
config DIGIEPCA
tristate "Digiboard Intelligent Async Support"
depends on SERIAL_NONSTANDARD && (ISA || EISA || PCI)
---help---
This is a driver for Digi International's Xx, Xeve, and Xem series
of cards which provide multiple serial ports. You would need
something like this to connect more than two modems to your Linux
box, for instance in order to become a dial-in server. This driver
supports the original PC (ISA) boards as well as PCI, and EISA. If
you have a card like this, say Y here and read the file
<file:Documentation/digiepca.txt>.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
module will be called epca.
config ESPSERIAL

depends on SERIAL_NONSTANDARD && (PCI || EISA || ISA)
help
Say Y here if you have a Moxa SmartIO multiport serial card and/or
want to help develop a new version of this driver.
This is upgraded (1.9.1) driver from original Moxa drivers with
changes finally resulting in PCI probing.
This driver can also be built as a module. The module will be called
mxser. If you want to do that, say M here.
config ISI
tristate "Multi-Tech multiport card support (EXPERIMENTAL)"
depends on SERIAL_NONSTANDARD && PCI

This is a driver for the Multi-Tech cards which provide several
serial ports. The driver is experimental and can currently only be
built as a module. The module will be called isicom.
If you want to do that, choose M here.
config SYNCLINK
tristate "Microgate SyncLink card support"

help
Allows synchronous HDLC communications with tty device drivers that
support synchronous HDLC such as the Microgate SyncLink adapter.
This driver can only be built as a module ( = code which can be
inserted in and removed from the running kernel whenever you want).
The module will be called n_hdlc. If you want to do that, say M
here.
config RISCOM8
tristate "SDL RISCom/8 card support"
depends on SERIAL_NONSTANDARD
help
This is a driver for the SDL Communications RISCom/8 multiport card,
which gives you many serial ports. You would need something like
this to connect more than two modems to your Linux box, for instance
in order to become a dial-in server. If you have a card like that,
say Y here and read the file <file:Documentation/riscom8.txt>.
Also it's possible to say M here and compile this driver as kernel
loadable module; the module will be called riscom8.
config SPECIALIX
tristate "Specialix IO8+ card support"
depends on SERIAL_NONSTANDARD
help
This is a driver for the Specialix IO8+ multiport card (both the
ISA and the PCI version) which gives you many serial ports. You
would need something like this to connect more than two modems to
your Linux box, for instance in order to become a dial-in server.
If you have a card like that, say Y here and read the file
<file:Documentation/specialix.txt>. Also it's possible to say M here
and compile this driver as kernel loadable module which will be
called specialix.
config SPECIALIX_RTSCTS
bool "Specialix DTR/RTS pin is RTS"
depends on SPECIALIX
help
The Specialix IO8+ card can only support either RTS or DTR. If you
say N here, the driver will use the pin as "DTR" when the tty is in
software handshake mode. If you say Y here or hardware handshake is
on, it will always be RTS. Read the file
<file:Documentation/specialix.txt> for more information.
config SX
tristate "Specialix SX (and SI) card support"
depends on SERIAL_NONSTANDARD && (PCI || EISA || ISA)
help
This is a driver for the SX and SI multiport serial cards.
Please read the file <file:Documentation/sx.txt> for details.
This driver can only be built as a module ( = code which can be
inserted in and removed from the running kernel whenever you want).
The module will be called sx. If you want to do that, say M here.
config RIO
tristate "Specialix RIO system support"

help
This is a driver for the Specialix RIO, a smart serial card which
drives an outboard box that can support up to 128 ports. Product
information is at <http://www.perle.com/support/documentation.html#multiport>.
There are both ISA and PCI versions.
config RIO_OLDPCI
bool "Support really old RIO/PCI cards"
depends on RIO
help
Older RIO PCI cards need some initialization-time configuration to
determine the IRQ and some control addresses. If you have a RIO and
this doesn't seem to work, try setting this to Y.
config STALDRV
bool "Stallion multiport serial support"
depends on SERIAL_NONSTANDARD
help
Stallion cards give you many serial ports. You would need something
like this to connect more than two modems to your Linux box, for
instance in order to become a dial-in server. If you say Y here,
you will be asked for your specific card model in the next
questions. Make sure to read <file:Documentation/stallion.txt> in
this case. If you have never heard about all this, it's safe to
say N.
config STALLION

depends on EXPERIMENTAL && ZORRO && BROKEN_ON_SMP
---help---
This option supports the 2232 7-port serial card shipped with the
Amiga 2000 and other Zorro-bus machines, dating from 1989. At
a max of 19,200 bps, the ports are served by a 6551 ACIA UART chip
each, plus a 8520 CIA, and a master 6502 CPU and buffer as well. The
ports were connected with 8 pin DIN connectors on the card bracket,
for which 8 pin to DB25 adapters were supplied. The card also had
jumpers internally to toggle various pinning configurations.
This driver can be built as a module; but then "generic_serial"
will also be built as a module. This has to be loaded before
"ser_a2232". If you want to do this, answer M here.

config UNIX98_PTYS
bool "Unix98 PTY support" if EMBEDDED
default y
---help---
A pseudo terminal (PTY) is a software device consisting of two
halves: a master and a slave. The slave device behaves identical to
a physical terminal; the master device is used by a process to
read data from and write data to the slave, thereby emulating a
terminal. Typical programs for the master side are telnet servers
and xterms.
Linux has traditionally used the BSD-like names /dev/ptyxx for
masters and /dev/ttyxx for slaves of pseudo terminals. This scheme
has a number of problems. The GNU C library glibc 2.1 and later,
however, supports the Unix98 naming standard: in order to acquire a
pseudo terminal, a process opens /dev/ptmx; the number of the pseudo
terminal is then made available to the process and the pseudo
terminal slave can be accessed as /dev/pts/<number>. What was
traditionally /dev/ttyp2 will then be /dev/pts/2, for example.
All modern Linux systems use the Unix98 ptys. Say Y unless
you're on an embedded system and want to conserve memory.
config LEGACY_PTYS
bool "Legacy (BSD) PTY support"

and xterms.
Linux has traditionally used the BSD-like names /dev/ptyxx

security. This option enables these legacy devices; on most
systems, it is safe to say N.

The maximum number of legacy PTYs that can be used at any one time.
The default is 256, and should be more than enough. Embedded
systems may want to reduce this to save memory.
When not in use, each legacy PTY occupies 12 bytes on 32-bit
architectures and 24 bytes on 64-bit architectures.
config BRIQ_PANEL

---help---
The briQ is a small footprint CHRP computer with a frontpanel VFD, a
tristate led and two switches. It is the size of a CDROM drive.
If you have such one and want anything showing on the VFD then you

It's safe to say N here.
config BFIN_OTP

default y
help
If you say Y here, you will get support for a character device
interface into the One Time Programmable memory pages that are
stored on the Blackfin processor. This will not get you access
to the secure memory pages however. You will need to write your
own secure code and reader for that.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
will be called bfin-otp.
If unsure, it is safe to say Y.
config BFIN_OTP_WRITE_ENABLE
bool "Enable writing support of OTP pages"
depends on BFIN_OTP
default n
help
If you say Y here, you will enable support for writing of the
OTP pages. This is dangerous by nature as you can only program
the pages once, so only enable this option when you actually
need it so as to not inadvertently clobber data.
If unsure, say N.
config PRINTER
tristate "Parallel printer support"
depends on PARPORT
---help---
If you intend to attach a printer to the parallel port of your Linux
box (as opposed to using a serial printer; if the connector at the
printer has 9 or 25 holes ["female"], then it's serial), say Y.
Also read the Printing-HOWTO, available from
<http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
It is possible to share one parallel port among several devices
(e.g. printer and ZIP drive) and it is safe to compile the
corresponding drivers into the kernel.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here and read
<file:Documentation/parport.txt>. The module will be called lp.
If you have several parallel ports, you can specify which ports to
use with the "lp" kernel command line option. (Try "man bootparam"
or see the documentation of your boot loader (lilo or loadlin) about
how to pass options to the kernel at boot time.) The syntax of the
"lp" command line option can be found in <file:drivers/char/lp.c>.
If you have more than 8 printers, you need to increase the LP_NO
macro in lp.c and the PARPORT_MAX macro in parport.h.
config LP_CONSOLE
bool "Support for console on line printer"
depends on PRINTER
---help---
If you want kernel messages to be printed out as they occur, you
can have a console on the printer. This option adds support for
doing that; to actually get it to happen you need to pass the
option "console=lp0" to the kernel at boot time.
If the printer is out of paper (or off, or unplugged, or too
busy..) the kernel will stall until the printer is ready again.
By defining CONSOLE_LP_STRICT to 0 (at your own risk) you
can make the kernel continue when this happens,
but it'll lose the kernel messages.
If unsure, say N.
config PPDEV
tristate "Support for user-space parallel port device drivers"
depends on PARPORT
---help---
Saying Y to this adds support for /dev/parport device nodes. This
is needed for programs that want portable access to the parallel
port, for instance deviceid (which displays Plug-and-Play device
IDs).
This is the parallel port equivalent of SCSI generic support (sg).
It is safe to say N to this -- it is not needed for normal printing
or parallel port CD-ROM/disk support.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
module will be called ppdev.

This is most useful for applications, as yet unwritten, which
perform actions based on how many times the button is pressed in a
row.
Do not hold the button down for too long, as the driver does not
alter the behaviour of the hardware reset circuitry attached to the

shutdown and reboot by pressing the orange button a number of times.
The number of presses to initiate the shutdown is two by default,
but this can be altered by modifying the value of NUM_PRESSES_REBOOT

you get read and write access to the extra bytes of non-volatile
memory in the real time clock (RTC), which is contained in every PC
and most Ataris. The actual number of bytes varies, depending on the
nvram in the system, but is usually 114 (128-14 for the RTC).
This memory is conventionally called "CMOS RAM" on PCs and "NVRAM"
on Ataris. /dev/nvram may be used to view settings there, or to
change them (with some utility). It could also be used to frequently
save a few bits of very important data that may not be lost over
power-off and for which writing to disk is too insecure. Note
however that most NVRAM space in a PC belongs to the BIOS and you
should NEVER idly tamper with it. See Ralf Brown's interrupt list
for a guide to the use of CMOS bytes by your BIOS.
On Atari machines, /dev/nvram is always configured and does not need

If you say Y here and create a character special file /dev/rtc with
major number 10 and minor number 135 using mknod ("man mknod"), you
will get access to the real time clock (or hardware clock) built
into your computer.
Every PC has such a clock built in. It can be used to generate
signals from as low as 1Hz up to 8192Hz, and can also be used
as a 24 hour alarm. It reports status information via the file
/proc/driver/rtc and its behaviour is set by various ioctls on
/dev/rtc.
If you think you have a use for such a device (such as periodic data
sampling), then say Y here, and read <file:Documentation/rtc.txt>
for details.
