18 depends on AVR32 || ARCH_AT91
20 This option enables device driver support for the PWM channels
21 on certain Atmel prcoessors. Pulse Width Modulation is used for
22 purposes including software controlled power-efficent backlights
23 on LCD displays, motor control, and waveform generation.
26 tristate "Device driver for IBM RSA service processor"
27 depends on X86 && PCI && INPUT && EXPERIMENTAL
29 This option enables device driver support for in-band access to the
30 IBM RSA (Condor) service processor in eServer xSeries systems.
31 The ibmasm device driver allows user space application to access
32 ASM (Advanced Systems Management) functions on the service
33 processor. The driver is meant to be used in conjunction with
35 The ibmasm driver also enables the OS to use the UART on the
36 service processor board as a regular serial port. To make use of

64 tristate "SGI IOC4 Base IO support"
67 This option enables basic support for the IOC4 chip on certain
68 SGI IO controller cards (IO9, IO10, and PCI-RT). This option
69 does not enable any specific functions on such a card, but provides
70 necessary infrastructure for other drivers to utilize.
72 If you have an SGI Altix with an IOC4-based card say Y.
76 tristate "TI Flash Media interface support (EXPERIMENTAL)"
77 depends on EXPERIMENTAL && PCI
79 If you want support for Texas Instruments(R) Flash Media adapters
80 you should select this option and then also choose an appropriate
81 host adapter, such as 'TI Flash Media PCI74xx/PCI76xx host adapter
82 support', if you have a TI PCI74xx compatible card reader, for

107 depends on EXPERIMENTAL
109 depends on LEDS_CLASS
110 depends on BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE
111 depends on SERIO_I8042
114 This is a driver for newer Acer (and Wistron) laptops. It adds
115 wireless radio and bluetooth control, and on some laptops,
116 exposes the mail LED and LCD backlight.

125 tristate "Asus Laptop Extras (EXPERIMENTAL)"
128 depends on EXPERIMENTAL && !ACPI_ASUS
129 depends on LEDS_CLASS
130 depends on BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE
132 This is the new Linux driver for Asus laptops. It may also support some
133 MEDION, JVC or VICTOR laptops. It makes all the extra buttons generate
134 standard ACPI events that go through /proc/acpi/events. It also adds
135 support for video output switching, LCD backlight control, Bluetooth and
136 Wlan control, and most importantly, allows you to blink those fancy LEDs.
138 For more information and a userspace daemon for handling the extra
139 buttons see <http://acpi4asus.sf.net/>.
141 If you have an ACPI-compatible ASUS laptop, say Y or M here.
143 config FUJITSU_LAPTOP
144 tristate "Fujitsu Laptop Extras"

149 This is a driver for laptops built by Fujitsu:
151 * P2xxx/P5xxx/S6xxx/S7xxx series Lifebooks
152 * Possibly other Fujitsu laptop models

197 screen brightness control, Fn keys and allows powering on/off some
200 Read <file:Documentation/laptops/sony-laptop.txt> for more information.
203 bool "Sonypi compatibility"

206 Build the sonypi driver compatibility code into the sony-laptop driver.
209 tristate "ThinkPad ACPI Laptop Extras"
210 depends on X86 && ACPI
211 select BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE
216 This is a driver for the IBM and Lenovo ThinkPad laptops. It adds
217 support for Fn-Fx key combinations, Bluetooth control, video
218 output switching, ThinkLight control, UltraBay eject and more.
219 For more information about this driver see
220 <file:Documentation/laptops/thinkpad-acpi.txt> and
221 <http://ibm-acpi.sf.net/> .
223 This driver was formerly known as ibm-acpi.
225 If you have an IBM or Lenovo ThinkPad laptop, say Y or M here.
227 config THINKPAD_ACPI_DEBUG
228 bool "Verbose debug mode"
229 depends on THINKPAD_ACPI
232 Enables extra debugging information, at the expense of a slightly
233 increase in driver size.
235 If you are not sure, say N here.
237 config THINKPAD_ACPI_DOCK
238 bool "Legacy Docking Station Support"
239 depends on THINKPAD_ACPI
240 depends on ACPI_DOCK=n
243 Allows the thinkpad_acpi driver to handle docking station events.
244 This support was made obsolete by the generic ACPI docking station
245 support (CONFIG_ACPI_DOCK). It will allow locking and removing the
246 laptop from the docking station, but will not properly connect PCI
249 If you are not sure, say N here.
251 config THINKPAD_ACPI_BAY
252 bool "Legacy Removable Bay Support"
253 depends on THINKPAD_ACPI
256 Allows the thinkpad_acpi driver to handle removable bays. It will
257 electrically disable the device in the bay, and also generate
258 notifications when the bay lever is ejected or inserted.
260 If you are not sure, say Y here.
262 config THINKPAD_ACPI_VIDEO
263 bool "Video output control support"
264 depends on THINKPAD_ACPI
267 Allows the thinkpad_acpi driver to provide an interface to control
268 the various video output ports.
270 This feature often won't work well, depending on ThinkPad model,
271 display state, video output devices in use, whether there is a X
272 server running, phase of the moon, and the current mood of
273 Schroedinger's cat. If you can use X.org's RandR to control
274 your ThinkPad's video output ports instead of this feature,
275 don't think twice: do it and say N here to save some memory.
277 If you are not sure, say Y here.
279 config THINKPAD_ACPI_HOTKEY_POLL
280 bool "Suport NVRAM polling for hot keys"
281 depends on THINKPAD_ACPI
284 Some thinkpad models benefit from NVRAM polling to detect a few of
285 the hot key press events. If you know your ThinkPad model does not
286 need to do NVRAM polling to support any of the hot keys you use,
287 unselecting this option will save about 1kB of memory.
289 ThinkPads T40 and newer, R52 and newer, and X31 and newer are
290 unlikely to need NVRAM polling in their latest BIOS versions.
292 NVRAM polling can detect at most the following keys: ThinkPad/Access
293 IBM, Zoom, Switch Display (fn+F7), ThinkLight, Volume up/down/mute,
294 Brightness up/down, Display Expand (fn+F8), Hibernate (fn+F12).
296 If you are not sure, say Y here. The driver enables polling only if
297 it is strictly necessary to do so.
300 tristate "Device driver for Atmel SSC peripheral"
301 depends on AVR32 || ARCH_AT91
303 This option enables device driver support for Atmel Syncronized
304 Serial Communication peripheral (SSC).
306 The SSC peripheral supports a wide variety of serial frame based
307 communications, i.e. I2S, SPI, etc.
312 tristate "Thermal Management driver for Intel menlow platform"
313 depends on ACPI_THERMAL
316 ACPI thermal management enhancement driver on
317 Intel Menlow platform.
321 config ENCLOSURE_SERVICES
322 tristate "Enclosure Services"
325 Provides support for intelligent enclosures (bays which
326 contain storage devices). You also need either a host
327 driver (SCSI/ATA) which supports enclosures
328 or a SCSI enclosure device (SES) to use these services.
