- config NET_ACX
- tristate "TI acx100/acx111 802.11b/g wireless chipsets"
- depends on NET_RADIO && EXPERIMENTAL && FW_LOADER && (USB || PCI)
- ---help---
- A driver for 802.11b/g wireless cards based on
- Texas Instruments acx100 and acx111 chipsets.
-
- This driver supports Host AP mode that allows
- your computer to act as an IEEE 802.11 access point.
- This driver is new and experimental.
-
- Texas Instruments did not take part in development of this driver
- in any way, shape or form.
-
- The driver can be compiled as a module and will be named "acx".
-
- config NET_ACX_PCI
- bool "TI acx100/acx111 802.11b/g PCI"
- depends on NET_ACX && PCI
- ---help---
- Include PCI and CardBus support in acx.
-
- acx chipsets need their firmware loaded at startup.
- You will need to provide a firmware image via hotplug.
-
- Firmware may be in a form of single image 40-100kb in size
- (a 'combined' firmware) or two images - main image
- (again 40-100kb) and radio image (~10kb or less).
-
- Firmware images are requested from hotplug using following names:
-
- tiacx100 - main firmware image for acx100 chipset
- tiacx100rNN - radio acx100 firmware for radio type NN
- tiacx100cNN - combined acx100 firmware for radio type NN
- tiacx111 - main acx111 firmware
- tiacx111rNN - radio acx111 firmware for radio type NN
- tiacx111cNN - combined acx111 firmware for radio type NN
-
- Driver will attempt to load combined image first.
- If no such image is found, it will try to load main image
- and radio image instead.
-
- Firmware files are not covered by GPL and are not distributed
- with this driver for legal reasons.
-
- config NET_ACX_USB
- bool "TI acx100/acx111 802.11b/g USB"
- depends on NET_ACX && USB
- ---help---
- Include USB support in acx.
-
- There is only one currently known device in this category,
- D-Link DWL-120+, but newer devices seem to be on the horizon.
-
- acx chipsets need their firmware loaded at startup.
- You will need to provide a firmware image via hotplug.
-
- Firmware for USB device is requested from hotplug
- by the 'tiacx100usb' name.
-
- Firmware files are not covered by GPL and are not distributed
- with this driver for legal reasons.
