+       help
+         Nosy is an IEEE 1394 packet sniffer that is used for protocol
+         analysis and in development of IEEE 1394 drivers, applications,
+         or firmwares.
+
+         This driver lets you use a Texas Instruments PCILynx 1394 to PCI
+         link layer controller TSB12LV21/A/B as a low-budget bus analyzer.
+         PCILynx is a nowadays very rare IEEE 1394 controller which is
+         not OHCI 1394 compliant.
+
+         The following cards are known to be based on PCILynx or PCILynx-2:
+         IOI IOI-1394TT (PCI card), Unibrain Fireboard 400 PCI Lynx-2
+         (PCI card), Newer Technology FireWire 2 Go (CardBus card),
+         Apple Power Mac G3 blue & white (onboard controller).
+
+         To compile this driver as a module, say M here:  The module will be
+         called nosy.
+
+         If unsure, say N.
