+ depends on PCI
+ help
+ Nosy is an IEEE 1394 packet sniffer that is used for protocol
+ analysis and in development of IEEE 1394 drivers, applications,
+ or firmwares.
+
+ This driver lets you use a Texas Instruments PCILynx 1394 to PCI
+ link layer controller TSB12LV21/A/B as a low-budget bus analyzer.
+ PCILynx is a nowadays very rare IEEE 1394 controller which is
+ not OHCI 1394 compliant.
+
+ The following cards are known to be based on PCILynx or PCILynx-2:
+ IOI IOI-1394TT (PCI card), Unibrain Fireboard 400 PCI Lynx-2
+ (PCI card), Newer Technology FireWire 2 Go (CardBus card),
+ Apple Power Mac G3 blue & white (onboard controller).
+
+ To compile this driver as a module, say M here: The module will be
+ called nosy.
+
+ If unsure, say N.
