.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
|
To compile this module into the kernel,
|
|
|
|
|
place the following line in your
|
|
|
|
|
kernel configuration file:
|
|
|
|
|
.Bd -ragged -offset indent
|
|
|
|
|
.Cd "device iwmfw"
|
|
|
|
|
.Ed
|
|
|

|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
|
This will include firmware images for all

|
|
|
.Xr iwm 4
|
|
|
|
|
devices inside the kernel.
|
|
|
|
|
If you want to pick only the firmware image for your network adapter choose one
|
|
|
|
