14 If you have a network (Ethernet) card belonging to this class, say Y
15 and read the Ethernet-HOWTO, available from
16 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
18 Note that the answer to this question doesn't directly affect the
19 kernel: saying N will just cause the configurator to skip all
20 the questions about Intel cards. If you say Y, you will be asked for
21 your specific card in the following questions.
26 tristate "Intel(R) PRO/100+ support"
31 This driver supports Intel(R) PRO/100 family of adapters.
32 To verify that your adapter is supported, find the board ID number
33 on the adapter. Look for a label that has a barcode and a number
34 in the format 123456-001 (six digits hyphen three digits).
36 Use the above information and the Adapter & Driver ID Guide at:
38 <http://support.intel.com/support/network/adapter/pro100/21397.htm>
40 to identify the adapter.
42 For the latest Intel PRO/100 network driver for Linux, see:

75 depends on PCI && (!SPARC32 || BROKEN)
78 This driver supports the PCI-Express Intel(R) PRO/1000 gigabit
79 ethernet family of adapters. For PCI or PCI-X e1000 adapters,
80 use the regular e1000 driver For more information on how to
81 identify your adapter, go to the Adapter & Driver ID Guide at:

112 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here. The module
116 bool "Direct Cache Access (DCA) Support"
118 depends on IGB && DCA && !(IGB=y && DCA=m)
120 Say Y here if you want to use Direct Cache Access (DCA) in the
121 driver. DCA is a method for warming the CPU cache before data
122 is used, with the intent of lessening the impact of cache misses.
125 tristate "Intel(R) 82576 Virtual Function Ethernet support"
128 This driver supports Intel(R) 82576 virtual functions. For more

146 tristate "Intel(R) PRO/10GbE support"
149 This driver supports Intel(R) PRO/10GbE family of adapters for
150 PCI-X type cards. For PCI-E type cards, use the "ixgbe" driver
151 instead. For more information on how to identify your adapter, go
