Saying Y here creates a 1500506f1d07SSam Ravnborg /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's 1501506f1d07SSam Ravnborg MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this. 1502506f1d07SSam Ravnborg 1503506f1d07SSam Ravnborg This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar 1504506f1d07SSam Ravnborg control registers on other processors can be easily supported 1505506f1d07SSam Ravnborg as well: 1506506f1d07SSam Ravnborg 1507506f1d07SSam Ravnborg The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range 1508506f1d07SSam Ravnborg Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For 1509506f1d07SSam Ravnborg these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs. 1510506f1d07SSam Ravnborg The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two 1511506f1d07SSam Ravnborg MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing 1512506f1d07SSam Ravnborg write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code 1513506f1d07SSam Ravnborg and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them. 1514506f1d07SSam Ravnborg 1515506f1d07SSam Ravnborg Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only 1516506f1d07SSam Ravnborg set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs.

Many "green" 2080e279b6c1SSam Ravnborg desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver 2081e279b6c1SSam Ravnborg may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase. 2082e279b6c1SSam Ravnborg 2083e279b6c1SSam Ravnborg Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't 2084e279b6c1SSam Ravnborg much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get 2085e279b6c1SSam Ravnborg random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to 2086e279b6c1SSam Ravnborg anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling 2087e279b6c1SSam Ravnborg APM in your BIOS). 2088e279b6c1SSam Ravnborg 2089e279b6c1SSam Ravnborg Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random, 2090e279b6c1SSam Ravnborg "weird" problems: 2091e279b6c1SSam Ravnborg 2092e279b6c1SSam Ravnborg 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is 2093e279b6c1SSam Ravnborg enabled. 2094e279b6c1SSam Ravnborg 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel 2095e279b6c1SSam Ravnborg 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass 2096e279b6c1SSam Ravnborg the "no387" option to the kernel 2097e279b6c1SSam Ravnborg 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel 2098e279b6c1SSam Ravnborg 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling 2099e279b6c1SSam Ravnborg all but the first 4 MB of RAM) 2100e279b6c1SSam Ravnborg 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked. 2101e279b6c1SSam Ravnborg 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/> 2102e279b6c1SSam Ravnborg 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings 2103e279b6c1SSam Ravnborg 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM 2104e279b6c1SSam Ravnborg 10) install a better fan for the CPU 2105e279b6c1SSam Ravnborg 11) exchange RAM chips 2106e279b6c1SSam Ravnborg 12) exchange the motherboard. 2107e279b6c1SSam Ravnborg 2108e279b6c1SSam Ravnborg To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the 2109e279b6c1SSam Ravnborg module will be called apm. 2110e279b6c1SSam Ravnborg 2111e279b6c1SSam Ravnborgif APM 2112e279b6c1SSam Ravnborg 2113e279b6c1SSam Ravnborgconfig APM_IGNORE_USER_SUSPEND 2114e279b6c1SSam Ravnborg bool "Ignore USER SUSPEND" 21158f9ca475SIngo Molnar ---help--- 2116e279b6c1SSam Ravnborg This option will ignore USER SUSPEND requests.

This 2129e279b6c1SSam Ravnborg should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features 2130e279b6c1SSam Ravnborg will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn 2131e279b6c1SSam Ravnborg this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM 2132e279b6c1SSam Ravnborg support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending.
