33 To compile this module into the kernel,
34 place the following line in your
35 kernel configuration file:
36 .Bd -ragged -offset indent
40 .\"This will include three firmware images inside the kernel.
41 .\"If you want to pick only the firmware image for your network adapter choose one

45 .\".Cd "device urtwn-rtl8192cfwU"
46 .\".Cd "device urtwn-rtl8188eufw"
49 Alternatively, to load the driver as a
50 module at boot time, place the following line in
52 .Bd -literal -offset indent
53 urtwn-rtl8192cfwT_load="YES"
