| 11 | IEEE 1394 describes a high performance serial bus, which is also |
| 12 | known as FireWire(tm) or i.Link(tm) and is used for connecting all |
| 13 | sorts of devices (most notably digital video cameras) to your |
| 14 | computer. |
| 15 | |
| 16 | If you have FireWire hardware and want to use it, say Y here. This |
| 17 | is the core support only, you will also need to select a driver for |
| 18 | your IEEE 1394 adapter. |

Stefan Richter | 227e7d8 | 2007-01-07 22:33:59 +0100 | [diff] [blame] | 23 | This is the "JUJU" FireWire stack, an alternative implementation |
| 24 | designed for robustness and simplicity. You can build either this |
| 25 | stack, or the classic stack (the ieee1394 driver, ohci1394 etc.) |
| 26 | or both. |
