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)"

124 tristate "Asus Laptop Extras (EXPERIMENTAL)"
127 depends on EXPERIMENTAL && !ACPI_ASUS
128 depends on LEDS_CLASS

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.

195 screen brightness control, Fn keys and allows powering on/off some
198 Read <file:Documentation/laptops/sony-laptop.txt> for more information.
201 bool "Sonypi compatibility"
202 depends on SONY_LAPTOP
204 Build the sonypi driver compatibility code into the sony-laptop driver.
207 tristate "ThinkPad ACPI Laptop Extras"
208 depends on X86 && ACPI

214 This is a driver for the IBM and Lenovo ThinkPad laptops. It adds
215 support for Fn-Fx key combinations, Bluetooth control, video
216 output switching, ThinkLight control, UltraBay eject and more.
217 For more information about this driver see
218 <file:Documentation/laptops/thinkpad-acpi.txt> and
219 <http://ibm-acpi.sf.net/> .
221 This driver was formerly known as ibm-acpi.
223 If you have an IBM or Lenovo ThinkPad laptop, say Y or M here.
225 config THINKPAD_ACPI_DEBUG
226 bool "Verbose debug mode"
227 depends on THINKPAD_ACPI
230 Enables extra debugging information, at the expense of a slightly
231 increase in driver size.
233 If you are not sure, say N here.
235 config THINKPAD_ACPI_DOCK
236 bool "Legacy Docking Station Support"
237 depends on THINKPAD_ACPI
238 depends on ACPI_DOCK=n
241 Allows the thinkpad_acpi driver to handle docking station events.
242 This support was made obsolete by the generic ACPI docking station
243 support (CONFIG_ACPI_DOCK). It will allow locking and removing the
244 laptop from the docking station, but will not properly connect PCI
247 If you are not sure, say N here.
249 config THINKPAD_ACPI_BAY
250 bool "Legacy Removable Bay Support"
251 depends on THINKPAD_ACPI
254 Allows the thinkpad_acpi driver to handle removable bays. It will
255 electrically disable the device in the bay, and also generate
256 notifications when the bay lever is ejected or inserted.
258 If you are not sure, say Y here.
260 config THINKPAD_ACPI_HOTKEY_POLL
261 bool "Suport NVRAM polling for hot keys"
262 depends on THINKPAD_ACPI
265 Some thinkpad models benefit from NVRAM polling to detect a few of
266 the hot key press events. If you know your ThinkPad model does not
267 need to do NVRAM polling to support any of the hot keys you use,
268 unselecting this option will save about 1kB of memory.
270 ThinkPads T40 and newer, R52 and newer, and X31 and newer are
271 unlikely to need NVRAM polling in their latest BIOS versions.
273 NVRAM polling can detect at most the following keys: ThinkPad/Access
274 IBM, Zoom, Switch Display (fn+F7), ThinkLight, Volume up/down/mute,
275 Brightness up/down, Display Expand (fn+F8), Hibernate (fn+F12).
277 If you are not sure, say Y here. The driver enables polling only if
278 it is strictly necessary to do so.
281 tristate "Device driver for Atmel SSC peripheral"
282 depends on AVR32 || ARCH_AT91
284 This option enables device driver support for Atmel Syncronized
285 Serial Communication peripheral (SSC).
287 The SSC peripheral supports a wide variety of serial frame based
288 communications, i.e. I2S, SPI, etc.
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.
302 config ENCLOSURE_SERVICES
303 tristate "Enclosure Services"
306 Provides support for intelligent enclosures (bays which
307 contain storage devices). You also need either a host
308 driver (SCSI/ATA) which supports enclosures
309 or a SCSI enclosure device (SES) to use these services.
