2 tristate "Serial port KISS driver"
3 depends on AX25 && BROKEN_ON_SMP
5 KISS is a protocol used for the exchange of data between a computer
6 and a Terminal Node Controller (a small embedded system commonly
7 used for networking over AX.25 amateur radio connections; it
8 connects the computer's serial port with the radio's microphone
9 input and speaker output).
11 Although KISS is less advanced than the 6pack protocol, it has
12 the advantage that it is already supported by most modern TNCs
13 without the need for a firmware upgrade.

19 tristate "Serial port 6PACK driver"
20 depends on AX25 && BROKEN_ON_SMP
22 6pack is a transmission protocol for the data exchange between your
23 PC and your TNC (the Terminal Node Controller acts as a kind of
24 modem connecting your computer's serial port to your radio's
25 microphone input and speaker output). This protocol can be used as
26 an alternative to KISS for networking over AX.25 amateur radio
27 connections, but it has some extended functionality.
29 Note that this driver is still experimental and might cause
30 problems. For details about the features and the usage of the
31 driver, read <file:Documentation/networking/6pack.txt>.

37 tristate "BPQ Ethernet driver"
40 AX.25 is the protocol used for computer communication over amateur
41 radio. If you say Y here, you will be able to send and receive AX.25
42 traffic over Ethernet (also called "BPQ AX.25"), which could be
43 useful if some other computer on your local network has a direct
44 amateur radio connection.
47 tristate "High-speed (DMA) SCC driver for AX.25"
48 depends on ISA && AX25 && BROKEN_ON_SMP
50 This is a driver for high-speed SCC boards, i.e. those supporting
51 DMA on one port. You usually use those boards to connect your
52 computer to an amateur radio modem (such as the WA4DSY 56kbps
53 modem), in order to send and receive AX.25 packet radio network
56 Currently, this driver supports Ottawa PI/PI2, Paccomm/Gracilis
57 PackeTwin, and S5SCC/DMA boards. They are detected automatically.
58 If you have one of these cards, say Y here and read the AX25-HOWTO,
59 available from <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
61 This driver can operate multiple boards simultaneously. If you
62 compile it as a module (by saying M instead of Y), it will be called
63 dmascc. If you don't pass any parameter to the driver, all
64 possible I/O addresses are probed. This could irritate other devices
65 that are currently not in use. You may specify the list of addresses
66 to be probed by "dmascc=addr1,addr2,..." (when compiled into the
67 kernel image) or "io=addr1,addr2,..." (when loaded as a module). The
68 network interfaces will be called dmascc0 and dmascc1 for the board
69 detected first, dmascc2 and dmascc3 for the second one, and so on.
71 Before you configure each interface with ifconfig, you MUST set
72 certain parameters, such as channel access timing, clock mode, and
73 DMA channel. This is accomplished with a small utility program,
74 dmascc_cfg, available at
75 <http://cacofonix.nt.tuwien.ac.at/~oe1kib/Linux/>. Please be sure to
76 get at least version 1.27 of dmascc_cfg, as older versions will not
77 work with the current driver.
80 tristate "Z8530 SCC driver"
81 depends on ISA && AX25
83 These cards are used to connect your Linux box to an amateur radio
84 in order to communicate with other computers. If you want to use
85 this, read <file:Documentation/networking/z8530drv.txt> and the
86 AX25-HOWTO, available from
87 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. Also make sure to say Y
88 to "Amateur Radio AX.25 Level 2" support.
90 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
94 bool "additional delay for PA0HZP OptoSCC compatible boards"
97 Say Y here if you experience problems with the SCC driver not
98 working properly; please read
99 <file:Documentation/networking/z8530drv.txt> for details.
104 bool "support for TRX that feedback the tx signal to rx"
107 Some transmitters feed the transmitted signal back to the receive
108 line. Say Y here to foil this by explicitly disabling the receiver
109 during data transmission.
113 config BAYCOM_SER_FDX
114 tristate "BAYCOM ser12 fullduplex driver for AX.25"
117 This is one of two drivers for Baycom style simple amateur radio
118 modems that connect to a serial interface. The driver supports the
119 ser12 design in full-duplex mode. In addition, it allows the
120 baudrate to be set between 300 and 4800 baud (however not all modems
121 support all baudrates). This is the preferred driver. The next
122 driver, "BAYCOM ser12 half-duplex driver for AX.25" is the old
123 driver and still provided in case this driver does not work with
124 your serial interface chip. To configure the driver, use the sethdlc
125 utility available in the standard ax25 utilities package. For
126 information on the modems, see <http://www.baycom.de/> and
127 <file:Documentation/networking/baycom.txt>.
129 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
130 will be called baycom_ser_fdx. This is recommended.

133 tristate "BAYCOM ser12 halfduplex driver for AX.25"
136 This is one of two drivers for Baycom style simple amateur radio
137 modems that connect to a serial interface. The driver supports the
138 ser12 design in full-duplex mode. This is the old driver. It is
139 still provided in case your serial interface chip does not work with
140 the full-duplex driver. This driver is depreciated. To configure
141 the driver, use the sethdlc utility available in the standard ax25
142 utilities package. For information on the modems, see
