CONFIG_ULTRA: SMC Ultra support

General informations

The Linux kernel configuration item CONFIG_ULTRA has multiple definitions:

SMC Ultra support found in drivers/net/ethernet/8390/Kconfig

The configuration item CONFIG_ULTRA:

• prompt: SMC Ultra support
• type: tristate
• depends on: CONFIG_ISA
• defined in drivers/net/ethernet/8390/Kconfig
• found in Linux kernels: 3.2–3.19, 4.0–4.20, 5.0–5.19, 6.0–6.17, 6.18-rc+HEAD
• modules built: 8390, 8390, smc-ultra, smc-ultra

Help text

If you have a network (Ethernet) card of this type, say Y here.

Important: There have been many reports that, with some motherboards mixing an SMC Ultra and an Adaptec AHA154x SCSI card (or compatible, such as some BusLogic models) causes corruption problems with many operating systems. The Linux smc-ultra driver has a work-around for this but keep it in mind if you have such a SCSI card and have problems.

To compile this driver as a module, choose M here. The module will be called smc-ultra.
