1026f1fad2SJes Sorensen	  This is an alternative driver for various Realtek RTL8XXX
1126f1fad2SJes Sorensen	  parts written to utilize the Linux mac80211 stack.
1226f1fad2SJes Sorensen	  The driver is known to work with a number of RTL8723AU,
136e597150SBitterblue Smith	  RL8188CU, RTL8188RU, RTL8191CU, RTL8192CU, RTL8723BU, RTL8192EU,
14c98411dcSBitterblue Smith	  RTL8188FU, RTL8188EU, RTL8710BU (aka RTL8188GU), and RTL8192FU
15c98411dcSBitterblue Smith	  devices.

1726f1fad2SJes Sorensen	  This driver is under development and has a limited feature
1826f1fad2SJes Sorensen	  set. In particular it does not yet support 40MHz channels
1926f1fad2SJes Sorensen	  and power management. However it should have a smaller
20c1edece3STobias Klauser	  memory footprint than the vendor drivers and benefits
2126f1fad2SJes Sorensen	  from the in kernel mac80211 stack.

24*1b84378bSPeter Robinson	  to control which module you wish to load.

2626f1fad2SJes Sorensen	  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will
276e597150SBitterblue Smith	  be called rtl8xxxu.  If unsure, say N.
