| 35 | ---help--- |
| 36 | Some of the various things that Linux supports (such as network |
| 37 | drivers, file systems, network protocols, etc.) can be in a state |
| 38 | of development where the functionality, stability, or the level of |
| 39 | testing is not yet high enough for general use. This is usually |
| 40 | known as the "alpha-test" phase among developers. If a feature is |
| 41 | currently in alpha-test, then the developers usually discourage |
| 42 | uninformed widespread use of this feature by the general public to |
| 43 | avoid "Why doesn't this work?" type mail messages. However, active |
| 44 | testing and use of these systems is welcomed. Just be aware that it |
| 45 | may not meet the normal level of reliability or it may fail to work |
| 46 | in some special cases. Detailed bug reports from people familiar |
| 47 | with the kernel internals are usually welcomed by the developers |
| 48 | (before submitting bug reports, please read the documents |
| 49 | <file:README>, <file:MAINTAINERS>, <file:REPORTING-BUGS>, |
| 50 | <file:Documentation/BUG-HUNTING>, and |
| 51 | <file:Documentation/oops-tracing.txt> in the kernel source). |
| 52 | |
| 53 | This option will also make obsoleted drivers available. These are |
| 54 | drivers that have been replaced by something else, and/or are |
| 55 | scheduled to be removed in a future kernel release. |
| 56 | |
| 57 | Unless you intend to help test and develop a feature or driver that |
| 58 | falls into this category, or you have a situation that requires |
| 59 | using these features, you should probably say N here, which will |
| 60 | cause the configurator to present you with fewer choices. If |
| 61 | you say Y here, you will be offered the choice of using features or |
| 62 | drivers that are currently considered to be in the alpha-test phase. |
