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