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