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