CONFIG_DE2104X
This driver is developed for the SMC EtherPower series Ethernet
cards and also works with cards based on the DECchip
21040 (Tulip series) chips. Some LinkSys PCI cards are
of this type. (If your card is NOT SMC EtherPower 10/100 PCI
(smc9332dst), you can also try the driver for "Generic DECchip"
cards, above. However, most people with a network card of this type
will say Y here.) Do read the Ethernet-HOWTO, available from
<http://www.linuxdoc.org/docs.html#howto>. More specific
information is contained in
<file:Documentation/DocBook/tulip-user.tmpl>.
This driver is also available as a module ( = code which can be
inserted in and removed from the running kernel whenever you want).

CONFIG_TULIP_MWI
This configures your Tulip card specifically for the card and
system cache line size type you are using.
This is experimental code, not yet tested on many boards.
If unsure, say N.
CONFIG_TULIP_MMIO
Use PCI shared memory for the NIC registers, rather than going through
the Tulip's PIO (programmed I/O ports). Faster, but could produce
obscure bugs if your mainboard has memory controller timing issues.

CONFIG_VIA_RHINE_MMIO
This instructs the driver to use PCI shared memory (MMIO) instead of
programmed I/O ports (PIO). Enabling this gives an improvement in
processing time in parts of the driver.
It is not known if this works reliably on all "rhine" based cards,
but it has been tested successfully on some DFE-530TX adapters.
If unsure, say N.
