CONFIG_IRTTY_SIR
Say Y here if you want to build support for the IrTTY line
discipline. If you want to compile it as a module (irtty.o), say M
here and read <file:Documentation/modules.txt>. IrTTY makes it
possible to use Linux's own serial driver for all IrDA ports that
are 16550 compatible. Most IrDA chips are 16550 compatible so you
should probably say Y to this option. Using IrTTY will however
limit the speed of the connection to 115200 bps (IrDA SIR mode).
If unsure, say Y.
CONFIG_IRPORT_SIR
Say Y here if you want to build support for the IrPORT IrDA device
driver. If you want to compile it as a module (irport.o), say M here
and read <file:Documentation/modules.txt>. IrPORT can be used
instead of IrTTY and sometimes this can be better. One example is
if your IrDA port does not have echo-canceling, which will work OK
with IrPORT since this driver is working in half-duplex mode only.
You don't need to use irattach with IrPORT, but you just insert it
the same way as FIR drivers (insmod irport io=0x3e8 irq=11). Notice
that IrPORT is a SIR device driver which means that speed is limited
to 115200 bps.
If unsure, say Y.
CONFIG_USB_IRDA
Say Y here if you want to build support for the USB IrDA FIR Dongle
device driver. If you want to compile it as a module (irda-usb.o),
say M here and read <file:Documentation/modules.txt>. IrDA-USB
support the various IrDA USB dongles available and most of their
pecularities. Those dongles plug in the USB port of your computer,
are plug and play, and support SIR and FIR (4Mbps) speeds. On the
other hand, those dongles tend to be less efficient than a FIR
chipset.
Please note that the driver is still experimental. And of course,
you will need both USB and IrDA support in your kernel...
CONFIG_WINBOND_FIR
Say Y here if you want to build IrDA support for the Winbond
W83977AF super-io chipset. This driver should be used for the IrDA
chipset in the Corel NetWinder. The driver supports SIR, MIR and
FIR (4Mbps) speeds.
If you want to compile it as a module, say M here and read
<file:Documentation/modules.txt>. The module will be called
w83977af_ir.o.
CONFIG_NSC_FIR
Say Y here if you want to build support for the NSC PC87108 and
PC87338 IrDA chipsets. This driver supports SIR,
MIR and FIR (4Mbps) speeds.
If you want to compile it as a module, say M here and read
<file:Documentation/modules.txt>. The module will be called
nsc-ircc.o.
CONFIG_TOSHIBA_FIR
Say Y here if you want to build support for the Toshiba Type-O IR
chipset. This chipset is used by the Toshiba Libretto 100CT, and
many more laptops. If you want to compile it as a module, say M
here and read <file:Documentation/modules.txt>. The module will be
called toshoboe.o.
CONFIG_SMC_IRCC_FIR
Say Y here if you want to build support for the SMC Infrared
Communications Controller. It is used in the Fujitsu Lifebook 635t
and Sony PCG-505TX. If you want to compile it as a module, say M
here and read <file:Documentation/modules.txt>. The module will be
called smc-ircc.o.
CONFIG_ALI_FIR
Say Y here if you want to build support for the ALi M5123 FIR
Controller. The ALi M5123 FIR Controller is embedded in ALi M1543C,
M1535, M1535D, M1535+, M1535D Sourth Bridge. This driver supports
SIR, MIR and FIR (4Mbps) speeds.
If you want to compile it as a module, say M here and read
<file:Documentation/modules.txt>. The module will be called
ali-ircc.o.
CONFIG_VLSI_FIR
Say Y here if you want to build support for the VLSI 82C147
PCI-IrDA Controller. This controller is used by the HP OmniBook 800
and 5500 notebooks. The driver provides support for SIR, MIR and
FIR (4Mbps) speeds.
If you want to compile it as a module, say M here and read
<file:Documentation/modules.txt>. The module will be called vlsi_ir.o.
CONFIG_DONGLE
Say Y here if you have an infrared device that connects to your
computer's serial port. These devices are called dongles. Then say Y
or M to the driver for your particular dongle below.
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 serial dongles.
CONFIG_ESI_DONGLE
Say Y here if you want to build support for the Extended Systems
JetEye PC dongle. If you want to compile it as a module, say M here
and read <file:Documentation/modules.txt>. The ESI dongle attaches
to the normal 9-pin serial port connector, and can currently only be
used by IrTTY. To activate support for ESI dongles you will have to
start irattach like this: "irattach -d esi".
CONFIG_ACTISYS_DONGLE
Say Y here if you want to build support for the ACTiSYS IR-220L and
IR220L+ dongles. If you want to compile it as a module, say M here
and read <file:Documentation/modules.txt>. The ACTiSYS dongles
attaches to the normal 9-pin serial port connector, and can
currently only be used by IrTTY. To activate support for ACTiSYS
dongles you will have to start irattach like this:
"irattach -d actisys" or "irattach -d actisys+".
CONFIG_TEKRAM_DONGLE
Say Y here if you want to build support for the Tekram IrMate 210B
dongle. If you want to compile it as a module, say M here and read
<file:Documentation/modules.txt>. The Tekram dongle attaches to the
normal 9-pin serial port connector, and can currently only be used
by IrTTY. To activate support for Tekram dongles you will have to
start irattach like this: "irattach -d tekram".
CONFIG_GIRBIL_DONGLE
Say Y here if you want to build support for the Greenwich GIrBIL
dongle. If you want to compile it as a module, say M here and read
<file:Documentation/modules.txt>. The Greenwich dongle attaches to
the normal 9-pin serial port connector, and can currently only be
used by IrTTY. To activate support for Greenwich dongles you will
have to insert "irattach -d girbil" in the /etc/irda/drivers script.
CONFIG_LITELINK_DONGLE
Say Y here if you want to build support for the Parallax Litelink
dongle. If you want to compile it as a module, say M here and read
<file:Documentation/modules.txt>. The Parallax dongle attaches to
the normal 9-pin serial port connector, and can currently only be
used by IrTTY. To activate support for Parallax dongles you will
have to start irattach like this "irattach -d litelink".
Microchip MCP2120 dongle
CONFIG_MCP2120_DONGLE
Say Y here if you want to build support for the Microchip MCP2120
dongle. If you want to compile it as a module, say M here and read
<file:Documentation/modules.txt>. The MCP2120 dongle attaches to
the normal 9-pin serial port connector, and can currently only be
used by IrTTY. To activate support for MCP2120 dongles you will
have to insert "irattach -d mcp2120" in the /etc/irda/drivers script.
You must build this dongle yourself. For more information see:

CONFIG_ACT200L_DONGLE
Say Y here if you want to build support for the ACTiSYS IR-200L
dongle. If you want to compile it as a module, say M here and read
Documentation/modules.txt. The ACTiSYS IR-200L dongle attaches to
