17 tristate "Atmel AT32/AT91 PWM support"
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)"

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

105 tristate "Acer WMI Laptop Extras (EXPERIMENTAL)"
107 depends on EXPERIMENTAL
109 depends on LEDS_CLASS
110 depends on BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE
113 This is a driver for newer Acer (and Wistron) laptops. It adds
114 wireless radio and bluetooth control, and on some laptops,
115 exposes the mail LED and LCD backlight.

124 tristate "Asus Laptop Extras (EXPERIMENTAL)"
127 depends on EXPERIMENTAL && !ACPI_ASUS
128 depends on LEDS_CLASS
129 depends on BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE
131 This is the new Linux driver for Asus laptops. It may also support some
132 MEDION, JVC or VICTOR laptops. It makes all the extra buttons generate
133 standard ACPI events that go through /proc/acpi/events. It also adds
134 support for video output switching, LCD backlight control, Bluetooth and
135 Wlan control, and most importantly, allows you to blink those fancy LEDs.
137 For more information and a userspace daemon for handling the extra
138 buttons see <http://acpi4asus.sf.net/>.
140 If you have an ACPI-compatible ASUS laptop, say Y or M here.
142 config FUJITSU_LAPTOP
143 tristate "Fujitsu Laptop Extras"
146 depends on BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE
148 This is a driver for laptops built by Fujitsu:
150 * P2xxx/P5xxx/S6xxx/S7xxx series Lifebooks
151 * Possibly other Fujitsu laptop models
153 It adds support for LCD brightness control.
155 If you have a Fujitsu laptop, say Y or M here.
158 tristate "HP Compaq TC1100 Tablet WMI Extras (EXPERIMENTAL)"
159 depends on X86 && !X86_64

171 depends on BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE
173 This is a driver for laptops built by MSI (MICRO-STAR
176 MSI MegaBook S270 (MS-1013)

184 If you have an MSI S270 laptop, say Y or M here.
187 tristate "Sony Laptop Extras"
188 depends on X86 && ACPI
189 select BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE
192 This mini-driver drives the SNC and SPIC devices present in the ACPI
193 BIOS of the Sony Vaio laptops.
195 It gives access to some extra laptop functionalities like Bluetooth,
196 screen brightness control, Fn keys and allows powering on/off some
199 Read <file:Documentation/laptops/sony-laptop.txt> for more information.
202 bool "Sonypi compatibility"
203 depends on SONY_LAPTOP
205 Build the sonypi driver compatibility code into the sony-laptop driver.
208 tristate "ThinkPad ACPI Laptop Extras"
209 depends on X86 && ACPI
210 select BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE
215 This is a driver for the IBM and Lenovo ThinkPad laptops. It adds
216 support for Fn-Fx key combinations, Bluetooth control, video
217 output switching, ThinkLight control, UltraBay eject and more.
218 For more information about this driver see
219 <file:Documentation/laptops/thinkpad-acpi.txt> and
220 <http://ibm-acpi.sf.net/> .
222 This driver was formerly known as ibm-acpi.
224 If you have an IBM or Lenovo ThinkPad laptop, say Y or M here.
226 config THINKPAD_ACPI_DEBUG
227 bool "Verbose debug mode"
228 depends on THINKPAD_ACPI
231 Enables extra debugging information, at the expense of a slightly
232 increase in driver size.
234 If you are not sure, say N here.
236 config THINKPAD_ACPI_DOCK
237 bool "Legacy Docking Station Support"
238 depends on THINKPAD_ACPI
239 depends on ACPI_DOCK=n
242 Allows the thinkpad_acpi driver to handle docking station events.
243 This support was made obsolete by the generic ACPI docking station
244 support (CONFIG_ACPI_DOCK). It will allow locking and removing the
245 laptop from the docking station, but will not properly connect PCI
248 If you are not sure, say N here.
250 config THINKPAD_ACPI_BAY
251 bool "Legacy Removable Bay Support"
252 depends on THINKPAD_ACPI
255 Allows the thinkpad_acpi driver to handle removable bays. It will
256 electrically disable the device in the bay, and also generate
257 notifications when the bay lever is ejected or inserted.
259 If you are not sure, say Y here.
261 config THINKPAD_ACPI_VIDEO
262 bool "Video output control support"
263 depends on THINKPAD_ACPI
266 Allows the thinkpad_acpi driver to provide an interface to control
267 the various video output ports.
269 This feature often won't work well, depending on ThinkPad model,
270 display state, video output devices in use, whether there is a X
271 server running, phase of the moon, and the current mood of
272 Schroedinger's cat. If you can use X.org's RandR to control
273 your ThinkPad's video output ports instead of this feature,
274 don't think twice: do it and say N here to save some memory.
276 If you are not sure, say Y here.
278 config THINKPAD_ACPI_HOTKEY_POLL
279 bool "Suport NVRAM polling for hot keys"
280 depends on THINKPAD_ACPI
283 Some thinkpad models benefit from NVRAM polling to detect a few of
284 the hot key press events. If you know your ThinkPad model does not
285 need to do NVRAM polling to support any of the hot keys you use,
286 unselecting this option will save about 1kB of memory.
288 ThinkPads T40 and newer, R52 and newer, and X31 and newer are
289 unlikely to need NVRAM polling in their latest BIOS versions.
291 NVRAM polling can detect at most the following keys: ThinkPad/Access
292 IBM, Zoom, Switch Display (fn+F7), ThinkLight, Volume up/down/mute,
293 Brightness up/down, Display Expand (fn+F8), Hibernate (fn+F12).
295 If you are not sure, say Y here. The driver enables polling only if
296 it is strictly necessary to do so.
299 tristate "Device driver for Atmel SSC peripheral"
300 depends on AVR32 || ARCH_AT91
302 This option enables device driver support for Atmel Syncronized
303 Serial Communication peripheral (SSC).
305 The SSC peripheral supports a wide variety of serial frame based
306 communications, i.e. I2S, SPI, etc.
311 tristate "Thermal Management driver for Intel menlow platform"
312 depends on ACPI_THERMAL
315 ACPI thermal management enhancement driver on
316 Intel Menlow platform.
320 config ENCLOSURE_SERVICES
321 tristate "Enclosure Services"
324 Provides support for intelligent enclosures (bays which
325 contain storage devices). You also need either a host
326 driver (SCSI/ATA) which supports enclosures
327 or a SCSI enclosure device (SES) to use these services.
