169 This mini-driver drives the SNC and SPIC devices present in the ACPI
170 BIOS of the Sony Vaio laptops.
172 It gives access to some extra laptop functionalities like Bluetooth,
173 screen brightness control, Fn keys and allows powering on/off some
176 Read <file:Documentation/laptops/sony-laptop.txt> for more information.
179 bool "Sonypi compatibility"
180 depends on SONY_LAPTOP
182 Build the sonypi driver compatibility code into the sony-laptop driver.
185 tristate "ThinkPad ACPI Laptop Extras"
187 select BACKLIGHT_LCD_SUPPORT
188 select BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE
197 This is a driver for the IBM and Lenovo ThinkPad laptops. It adds
198 support for Fn-Fx key combinations, Bluetooth control, video
199 output switching, ThinkLight control, UltraBay eject and more.
200 For more information about this driver see
201 <file:Documentation/laptops/thinkpad-acpi.txt> and
202 <http://ibm-acpi.sf.net/> .
204 This driver was formerly known as ibm-acpi.
206 If you have an IBM or Lenovo ThinkPad laptop, say Y or M here.
208 config THINKPAD_ACPI_DEBUGFACILITIES
209 bool "Maintainer debug facilities"
210 depends on THINKPAD_ACPI
213 Enables extra stuff in the thinkpad-acpi which is completely useless
214 for normal use. Read the driver source to find out what it does.
216 Say N here, unless you were told by a kernel maintainer to do
219 config THINKPAD_ACPI_DEBUG
220 bool "Verbose debug mode"
221 depends on THINKPAD_ACPI
224 Enables extra debugging information, at the expense of a slightly
225 increase in driver size.
227 If you are not sure, say N here.
229 config THINKPAD_ACPI_DOCK
230 bool "Legacy Docking Station Support"
231 depends on THINKPAD_ACPI
232 depends on ACPI_DOCK=n
235 Allows the thinkpad_acpi driver to handle docking station events.
236 This support was made obsolete by the generic ACPI docking station
237 support (CONFIG_ACPI_DOCK). It will allow locking and removing the
238 laptop from the docking station, but will not properly connect PCI
241 If you are not sure, say N here.
243 config THINKPAD_ACPI_BAY
244 bool "Legacy Removable Bay Support"
245 depends on THINKPAD_ACPI
248 Allows the thinkpad_acpi driver to handle removable bays. It will
249 electrically disable the device in the bay, and also generate
250 notifications when the bay lever is ejected or inserted.
252 If you are not sure, say Y here.
254 config THINKPAD_ACPI_VIDEO
255 bool "Video output control support"
256 depends on THINKPAD_ACPI
259 Allows the thinkpad_acpi driver to provide an interface to control
260 the various video output ports.
262 This feature often won't work well, depending on ThinkPad model,
263 display state, video output devices in use, whether there is a X
264 server running, phase of the moon, and the current mood of
265 Schroedinger's cat. If you can use X.org's RandR to control
266 your ThinkPad's video output ports instead of this feature,
267 don't think twice: do it and say N here to save some memory.
269 If you are not sure, say Y here.
271 config THINKPAD_ACPI_HOTKEY_POLL
272 bool "Support NVRAM polling for hot keys"
273 depends on THINKPAD_ACPI
276 Some thinkpad models benefit from NVRAM polling to detect a few of
277 the hot key press events. If you know your ThinkPad model does not
278 need to do NVRAM polling to support any of the hot keys you use,
279 unselecting this option will save about 1kB of memory.
281 ThinkPads T40 and newer, R52 and newer, and X31 and newer are
282 unlikely to need NVRAM polling in their latest BIOS versions.
284 NVRAM polling can detect at most the following keys: ThinkPad/Access
285 IBM, Zoom, Switch Display (fn+F7), ThinkLight, Volume up/down/mute,
286 Brightness up/down, Display Expand (fn+F8), Hibernate (fn+F12).
288 If you are not sure, say Y here. The driver enables polling only if
289 it is strictly necessary to do so.
292 tristate "Thermal Management driver for Intel menlow platform"
293 depends on ACPI_THERMAL
296 ACPI thermal management enhancement driver on
297 Intel Menlow platform.
302 tristate "Eee PC Hotkey Driver (EXPERIMENTAL)"
304 depends on EXPERIMENTAL
305 select BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE
309 This driver supports the Fn-Fx keys on Eee PC laptops.
310 It also adds the ability to switch camera/wlan on/off.
312 If you have an Eee PC laptop, say Y or M here.
316 tristate "WMI (EXPERIMENTAL)"
318 depends on EXPERIMENTAL
320 This driver adds support for the ACPI-WMI (Windows Management
321 Instrumentation) mapper device (PNP0C14) found on some systems.
323 ACPI-WMI is a proprietary extension to ACPI to expose parts of the
324 ACPI firmware to userspace - this is done through various vendor
325 defined methods and data blocks in a PNP0C14 device, which are then
326 made available for userspace to call.
328 The implementation of this in Linux currently only exposes this to
329 other kernel space drivers.
331 This driver is a required dependency to build the firmware specific
332 drivers needed on many machines, including Acer and HP laptops.
334 It is safe to enable this driver even if your DSDT doesn't define
335 any ACPI-WMI devices.
338 tristate "ASUS/Medion Laptop Extras"
340 select BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE
342 This driver provides support for extra features of ACPI-compatible
343 ASUS laptops. As some of Medion laptops are made by ASUS, it may also
344 support some Medion laptops (such as 9675 for example). It makes all
345 the extra buttons generate standard ACPI events that go through
346 /proc/acpi/events, and (on some models) adds support for changing the
347 display brightness and output, switching the LCD backlight on and off,
348 and most importantly, allows you to blink those fancy LEDs intended
349 for reporting mail and wireless status.
351 Note: display switching code is currently considered EXPERIMENTAL,
352 toying with these values may even lock your machine.
354 All settings are changed via /proc/acpi/asus directory entries. Owner
355 and group for these entries can be set with asus_uid and asus_gid
358 More information and a userspace daemon for handling the extra buttons
359 at <http://sourceforge.net/projects/acpi4asus/>.
361 If you have an ACPI-compatible ASUS laptop, say Y or M here. This
362 driver is still under development, so if your laptop is unsupported or
363 something works not quite as expected, please use the mailing list
364 available on the above page (acpi4asus-user@lists.sourceforge.net).
366 NOTE: This driver is deprecated and will probably be removed soon,
367 use asus-laptop instead.
370 tristate "Toshiba Laptop Extras"
376 select BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE
378 This driver adds support for access to certain system settings
379 on "legacy free" Toshiba laptops. These laptops can be recognized by
380 their lack of a BIOS setup menu and APM support.
382 On these machines, all system configuration is handled through the
383 ACPI. This driver is required for access to controls not covered
384 by the general ACPI drivers, such as LCD brightness, video output,
387 This driver differs from the non-ACPI Toshiba laptop driver (located
388 under "Processor type and features") in several aspects.
389 Configuration is accessed by reading and writing text files in the
390 /proc tree instead of by program interface to /dev. Furthermore, no
391 power management functions are exposed, as those are handled by the
392 general ACPI drivers.
394 More information about this driver is available at
395 <http://memebeam.org/toys/ToshibaAcpiDriver>.
