+		Linux network driver modules
+
+	This is a potpourri of INSMOD-time(*) configuration
+	options (if exist) and their default values of various
+	modules on Linux network drivers collection.
+
+	Do NOT mistake this to "README.modules" at the top-level
+	directory!
+
+	--------------------------
+	(*)	"INSMOD-time" means when you load module with
+		/sbin/insmod  you can feed it optional parameters.
+		See "man insmod".
