---help--- | ||
This is a driver for Digi International's Xx, Xeve, and Xem series | ||
of cards which provide multiple serial ports. You would need | ||
something like this to connect more than two modems to your Linux | ||
box, for instance in order to become a dial-in server. This driver | ||
supports the original PC (ISA) boards as well as PCI, and EISA. If | ||
you have a card like this, say Y here and read the file | ||

---help--- | ||
This driver supports the entire family of Intelliport II/Plus | ||
controllers with the exception of the MicroChannel controllers and | ||
products previous to the Intelliport II. These are multiport cards, | ||
which give you many serial ports. You would need something like this | ||

These are a few tty/serial drivers that either do not build, | ||
or work if they do build, or if they seem to work, are for obsolete | ||
hardware, or are full of unfixable races and no one uses them anymore. | ||

If no one steps up to adopt any of these drivers, they will be removed | ||
in the 2.6.41 release. |
