Name

PNP — Plug and Play support

Description

Plug and Play (PnP) is a standard for peripherals that allows them to be configured by software, e.g. to assign IRQs or other parameters. No jumpers on the cards are needed; instead, the values are provided to the cards from the BIOS, from the operating system, or using a user-space utility.

Say yes here if you would like Linux to configure your Plug and Play devices. You should then also say yes to all of the protocols needed. Alternatively, you can say no here and configure your Plug and Play devices using user space utilities such as the isapnptools package.
