This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want 2067 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a 2068 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs 2069 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area 2070 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy. 2071 2072 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump, 2073 leave the value here unchanged to 0x1000000 and set 2074 CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y.

This is mostly useful for battery powered laptops with 2447 APM compliant BIOSes. If you say Y here, the system time will be 2448 reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide 2449 battery status information, and user-space programs will receive 2450 notification of APM "events" (e.g. battery status change). 2451 2452 If you select "Y" here, you can disable actual use of the APM 2453 BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time. 2454 2455 Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for 2456 machines with more than one CPU. 2457 2458 In order to use APM, you will need supporting software. For location 2459 and more information, read <file:Documentation/power/apm-acpi.txt> 2460 and the Battery Powered Linux mini-HOWTO, available from 2461 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. 2462 2463 This driver does not spin down disk drives (see the hdparm(8) 2464 manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off 2465 VESA-compliant "green" monitors. 2466 2467 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER 2468 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green" 2469 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver 2470 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase. 2471 2472 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't 2473 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get 2474 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to 2475 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling 2476 APM in your BIOS). 2477 2478 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random, 2479 "weird" problems: 2480 2481 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is 2482 enabled. 2483 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel 2484 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass 2485 the "no387" option to the kernel 2486 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel 2487 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling 2488 all but the first 4 MB of RAM) 2489 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked. 2490 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/> 2491 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings 2492 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM 2493 10) install a better fan for the CPU 2494 11) exchange RAM chips 2495 12) exchange the motherboard. 2496 2497 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the 2498 module will be called apm. 2499 2500if APM 2501 2502config APM_IGNORE_USER_SUSPEND 2503 bool "Ignore USER SUSPEND" 2504 ---help--- 2505 This option will ignore USER SUSPEND requests. On machines with a 2506 compliant APM BIOS, you want to say N. However, on the NEC Versa M 2507 series notebooks, it is necessary to say Y because of a BIOS bug. 2508 2509config APM_DO_ENABLE 2510 bool "Enable PM at boot time" 2511 ---help--- 2512 Enable APM features at boot time. From page 36 of the APM BIOS 2513 specification: "When disabled, the APM BIOS does not automatically 2514 power manage devices, enter the Standby State, enter the Suspend 2515 State, or take power saving steps in response to CPU Idle calls." 2516 This driver will make CPU Idle calls when Linux is idle (unless this 2517 feature is turned off -- see "Do CPU IDLE calls", below). This 2518 should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features 2519 will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn 2520 this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM 2521 support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn 2522 this off if you have a NEC UltraLite Versa 33/C or a Toshiba 2523 T400CDT. This is off by default since most machines do fine without 2524 this feature. 2525 2526config APM_CPU_IDLE 2527 depends on CPU_IDLE 2528 bool "Make CPU Idle calls when idle" 2529 ---help--- 2530 Enable calls to APM CPU Idle/CPU Busy inside the kernel's idle loop. 2531 On some machines, this can activate improved power savings, such as 2532 a slowed CPU clock rate, when the machine is idle. These idle calls 2533 are made after the idle loop has run for some length of time (e.g., 2534 333 mS). On some machines, this will cause a hang at boot time or 2535 whenever the CPU becomes idle. (On machines with more than one CPU, 2536 this option does nothing.) 2537 2538config APM_DISPLAY_BLANK 2539 bool "Enable console blanking using APM" 2540 ---help--- 2541 Enable console blanking using the APM. Some laptops can use this to 2542 turn off the LCD backlight when the screen blanker of the Linux 2543 virtual console blanks the screen. Note that this is only used by 2544 the virtual console screen blanker, and won't turn off the backlight 2545 when using the X Window system. This also doesn't have anything to 2546 do with your VESA-compliant power-saving monitor. Further, this 2547 option doesn't work for all laptops -- it might not turn off your 2548 backlight at all, or it might print a lot of errors to the console, 2549 especially if you are using gpm. 2550 2551config APM_ALLOW_INTS 2552 bool "Allow interrupts during APM BIOS calls" 2553 ---help--- 2554 Normally we disable external interrupts while we are making calls to 2555 the APM BIOS as a measure to lessen the effects of a badly behaving 2556 BIOS implementation. The BIOS should reenable interrupts if it 2557 needs to. Unfortunately, some BIOSes do not -- especially those in 2558 many of the newer IBM Thinkpads. If you experience hangs when you 2559 suspend, try setting this to Y.
