prompt "b43 firmware version"
depends on PACKAGE_kmod-b43
default B43_STABLE
help
This option allows you to select the version of the b43 firmware.
config B43_STABLE
bool "4.150.10.5 (stable)"
help
Stable firmware for BCM43xx devices.
If unsure, select this.
config B43_EXPERIMENTAL
bool "4.178.10.4 (experimental)"
help
Experimental firmware for BCM43xx devices.
This firmware is not tested as much as the "stable" firmware.
If unsure, select the "stable" firmware.
config B43_OPENFIRMWARE
bool "Open FirmWare for WiFi networks"
help
Opensource firmware for BCM43xx devices.
Do _not_ select this, unless you know what you are doing.
The Opensource firmware is not suitable for embedded devices, yet.
It does not support QoS, which is bad for AccessPoints.
It does not support hardware crypto acceleration, which is a showstopper
for embedded devices with low CPU resources.
If unsure, select the "stable" firmware.

config B43_FW_SQUASH
bool "Remove unnecessary firmware files"
depends on PACKAGE_kmod-b43 && !B43_OPENFIRMWARE
help
This options allows you to remove unnecessary b43 firmware files
from the final rootfs image. This can reduce the rootfs size by
up to 200k.
Do _NOT_ use this option, if you don't know the core revision
and/or PHY type of your wireless chip.
If unsure, say N.

help
This is a comma seperated list of PHY types:
A => A-PHY
AG => Dual A-PHY G-PHY
G => G-PHY
LP => LP-PHY
N => N-PHY
Example (keep files for G-PHY only):
G
