+Soundcard modem support for SoundBlaster and compatible cards
+CONFIG_SOUNDMODEM_SBC
+  This option enables the soundmodem driver to use SoundBlaster
+  and compatible cards. Dual mode cards (i.e. WSS cards with a
+  SoundBlaster emulation) should be used in WSS mode because
+  this results in usually better performance.
+
+Soundcard modem support for WSS and Crystal cards
+CONFIG_SOUNDMODEM_WSS
+  This option enables the soundmodem driver to use WindowsSoundSystem
+  compatible cards. These cards feature a codec chip from either
+  Analog Devices (such as AD1848, AD1845, AD1812) or Crystal Semiconductors
+  (such as CS4248, CS423x). This option also supports the WSS full duplex

+Soundcard modem support for 1200 baud AFSK modulation
+CONFIG_SOUNDMODEM_AFSK1200
+  This option enables the soundmodem driver 1200 baud AFSK modem,

+  requires about 12% of the CPU power of a Pentium 75 CPU per channel.
+
+Soundcard modem support for 1200 baud AFSK modulation
+CONFIG_SOUNDMODEM_AFSK1200_FP
+  This option enables floating point calculations to be used for the
+  AFSK1200 baud modem. The Intel Pentium is a perverted chip because
+  integer multiplications are, altough easier to implement in silicon,
+  an order of a magnitude slower than floating point calculations.
+  Enabling this option uses a highly optimized assembler routine for
+  correlations, modelled after the one published by Phil Karn, KA9Q.
+  This reduces the computing power needed on Intel Pentium chips to about
+  50%. On the other hand, Pentium clones with faster integer multiply and
+  slower floating point multiply will probably take longer with this
+  option turned on. As a rule of thumb, enable it for Intel Pentium and
+  Pentium Pro processors, and disable it for anything else.
+  I (sailer@ife.ee.ethz.ch) am very interested in figures. If you are
+  willing to give me a feedback, please compile the driver once with this
+  option enabled and once with it disabled, and send me the cycle counter
+  numbers obtained with both compilations, and your exact chip. The cycle
+  counter numbers can be optained by a recent sethdlc utility.

 Traffic Shaper (EXPERIMENTAL)
 CONFIG_SHAPER
-  A traffic shaper is a special device (typically called /dev/shaper0)
-  that attaches to some other network device (such as your first
-  ethernet card /dev/eth0) and limits the outgoing bandwidth on that
-  device to a configurable upper bound, for example 64000 bits per

-  normally go to /dev/eth0 to /dev/shaper0 instead; the traffic will
-  be slowed down a bit and then forwarded to /dev/eth0. This could be
-  useful for something, but I don't know for what. To set up and
-  configure shaper devices, you need the shapecfg program, available
-  via ftp (user: anonymous) from shadow.cabi.net/pub/Linux in the

+  If you anticipate running this kernel on a computer with a MC68020 processor,

+  (= memory management unit) to run Linux/m68k.

+Advanced processor options
+CONFIG_ADVANCED_CPU
+  This gives you access to some advanced options for the CPU.  The
+  defaults should be fine for most users, but these options may make
+  it possible for you to improve performance somewhat if you know what
+  you are doing.  Most users should say N to this question.
+
+Use read-modify-write instructions
+CONFIG_RMW_INSNS
+  This allows to use certain instructions that work with indivisible
+  read-modify-write bus cycles. While this is faster than the
+  workaround of disabling interrupts, it can conflict with DMA (=
+  direct memory access) on many Amiga systems, and it is also said to
+  destabilize other machines. It is very likely that this will cause
+  serious problems on any Amiga or Atari Medusa if set. The only
+  configuration where it should work are 68030-based Ataris, where it
+  apparently improves performance. But you've been warned! Unless you
+  really know what you are doing, say N. Try Y only if you're
+  quite adventurous.
+
+Amiga AutoConfig Identification
+CONFIG_ZORRO
+  This enables support for automatic identification of Amiga expansion
+  cards that obey the AutoConfig(tm) specification.  You should say Y
+  to this question unless you have no expansion cards and no intention
+  of getting any.
+
+Amiga OCS chipset support
+CONFIG_AMIFB_OCS
+  This enables support for the original Agnus and Denise video chips,

+Atari ACSI support
+CONFIG_ATARI_ACSI
+  This enables support for the Atari ACSI interface. This driver is
+  also available as a module ( = code which can be inserted in and
+  removed from the running kernel whenever you want). The driver
+  supports hard disks and CD-ROMs, which have 512-byte sectors, or can
+  be switched to that mode. Due to the ACSI command format, only disks
+  up to 1 GB are supported. Special support for certain ACSI to SCSI
+  adapters, which could relax that, isn't included yet. The ACSI
+  driver is also the basis for certain other drivers for devices
+  attached to the ACSI bus: Atari SLM laser printer, BioNet-100
+  Ethernet, and PAMsNet Ethernet. If you want to use one of these
+  devices, you need ACSI support, too.
+
+Probe all LUNs on each ACSI device
+CONFIG_ACSI_MULTI_LUN
+  If you have a ACSI device that supports more than one LUN (Logical
+  Unit Number), e.g. a CD jukebox, you should say Y here so that all
+  will be found by the ACSI driver. An ACSI device with multiple LUNs
+  acts logically like multiple ACSI devices. The vast majority of ACSI
+  devices have only one LUN, and so most people can say N here and
+  should in fact do so, because it is safer.
+
+Atari SLM laser printer support
+CONFIG_ATARI_SLM
+  If you have an Atari SLM laser printer, say Y to include support for
+  it in the kernel. Otherwise, say N. This driver is also available as
+  a module ( = code which can be inserted in and removed from the
+  running kernel whenever you want).
+  Be warned: the driver needs much ST-RAM and can cause problems due
+  to that fact!

+CONFIG_MSDOS_PARTITION
+  This option enables support for using hard disks that were
+  partitioned on an MS-DOS system.  This may be useful if you are
+  sharing a hard disk between i386 and m68k Linux boxes, for example.
+  Say Y if you need this feature; users who are only using their
+  system-native partitioning scheme can say N here.
 
 # need an empty line after last entry, for sed script in Configure.
