  8. b43 is a driver for the Broadcom 43xx series wireless devices.
  9. Check "lspci" for something like
  10. "Broadcom Corporation BCM43XX 802.11 Wireless LAN Controller"
  11. to determine whether you own such a device.
  12. This driver supports the new BCM43xx IEEE 802.11G devices, but not
  13. the old IEEE 802.11B devices. Old devices are supported by
  14. the b43legacy driver.
  15. Note that this has nothing to do with the standard that your AccessPoint
  16. supports (A, B, G or a combination).
  17. IEEE 802.11G devices can talk to IEEE 802.11B AccessPoints.
  18. It is safe to include both b43 and b43legacy as the underlying glue
  19. layer will automatically load the correct version for your device.
  20. This driver uses V4 firmware, which must be installed separately using
  21. b43-fwcutter.
  22. This driver can be built as a module (recommended) that will be called "b43".
  23. If unsure, say M.

  41. ---help---
  42. Broadcom 43xx PCMCIA device support.
  43. Support for 16bit PCMCIA devices.
  44. Please note that most PC-CARD devices are _NOT_ 16bit PCMCIA
  45. devices, but 32bit CardBUS devices. CardBUS devices are supported
  46. out of the box by b43.
  47. With this config option you can drive b43 cards in
  48. CompactFlash formfactor in a PCMCIA adaptor.
  49. CF b43 cards can sometimes be found in handheld PCs.
  50. It's safe to select Y here, even if you don't have a B43 PCMCIA device.
  51. If unsure, say N.
  52. config B43_SDIO

  56. ---help---
  57. Broadcom 43xx device support for Soft-MAC SDIO devices.
  58. With this config option you can drive Soft-MAC b43 cards with a
  59. Secure Digital I/O interface.
  60. This includes the WLAN daughter card found on the Nintendo Wii
  61. video game console.
  62. Note that this does not support Broadcom 43xx Full-MAC devices.
  63. It's safe to select Y here, even if you don't have a B43 SDIO device.
  64. If unsure, say N.
  65. config B43_NPHY
  66. bool "Pre IEEE 802.11n support (BROKEN)"
  67. depends on B43 && EXPERIMENTAL && BROKEN
  68. ---help---
  69. Support for the IEEE 802.11n draft.
  70. THIS IS BROKEN AND DOES NOT WORK YET.
  71. SAY N.
  72. config B43_PHY_LP
  73. bool "Support for low-power (LP-PHY) devices (EXPERIMENTAL)"
  74. depends on B43 && EXPERIMENTAL
  75. default y
  76. ---help---
  77. Support for the LP-PHY.
  78. The LP-PHY is a low-power PHY built into some notebooks
  79. and embedded devices. It supports 802.11a/g
  80. (802.11a support is optional, and currently disabled).
  81. # This config option automatically enables b43 LEDS support,
  82. # if it's possible.

  93. config B43_DEBUG
  94. bool "Broadcom 43xx debugging"
  95. depends on B43
  96. ---help---
  97. Broadcom 43xx debugging.
  98. This adds additional runtime sanity checks and statistics to the driver.
  99. These checks and statistics might me expensive and hurt runtime performance
  100. of your system.
  101. This also adds the b43 debugfs interface.
  102. Do not enable this, unless you are debugging the driver.
  103. Say N, if you are a distributor or user building a release kernel
  104. for production use.
  105. Only say Y, if you are debugging a problem in the b43 driver sourcecode.
