Linux kernel 2.6.0-test4 on s390.

CONFIG_CHR_DEV_SG:

If you want to use SCSI scanners, synthesizers or CD-writers or just
about anything having "SCSI" in its name other than hard disks,
CD-ROMs or tapes, say Y here. These won't be supported by the kernel
directly, so you need some additional software which knows how to
talk to these devices using the SCSI protocol:

For scanners, look at SANE (<http://www.mostang.com/sane/>). For CD
writer software look at Cdrtools
(<http://www.fokus.gmd.de/research/cc/glone/employees/joerg.schilling/private/cdrecord.html>)
and for burning a "disk at once": CDRDAO
(<http://cdrdao.sourceforge.net/>). Cdparanoia is a high
quality digital reader of audio CDs (<http://www.xiph.org/paranoia/>).
For other devices, it's possible that you'll have to write the
driver software yourself. Please read the file
<file:Documentation/scsi/scsi-generic.txt> for more information.

If you want to compile this as a module ( = code which can be
inserted in and removed from the running kernel whenever you want),
say M here and read <file:Documentation/modules.txt> and
<file:Documentation/scsi/scsi.txt>. The module will be called sg.
If unsure, say N.
