65 This is the new Linux driver for Asus laptops. It may also support some
66 MEDION, JVC or VICTOR laptops. It makes all the extra buttons generate
67 standard ACPI events and input events. It also adds
68 support for video output switching, LCD backlight control, Bluetooth and
69 Wlan control, and most importantly, allows you to blink those fancy LEDs.
71 For more information and a userspace daemon for handling the extra
72 buttons see <http://acpi4asus.sf.net>.

100 config FUJITSU_LAPTOP
101 tristate "Fujitsu Laptop Extras"
104 depends on BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE
105 depends on LEDS_CLASS || LEDS_CLASS=n
107 This is a driver for laptops built by Fujitsu:
109 * P2xxx/P5xxx/S6xxx/S7xxx series Lifebooks
110 * Possibly other Fujitsu laptop models
111 * Tested with S6410 and S7020
113 It adds support for LCD brightness control and some hotkeys.
115 If you have a Fujitsu laptop, say Y or M here.
117 config FUJITSU_LAPTOP_DEBUG
118 bool "Verbose debug mode for Fujitsu Laptop Extras"
119 depends on FUJITSU_LAPTOP
122 Enables extra debug output from the fujitsu extras driver, at the
123 expense of a slight increase in driver size.
125 If you are not sure, say N here.
128 tristate "HP Compaq TC1100 Tablet WMI Extras (EXPERIMENTAL)"
130 depends on EXPERIMENTAL
134 This is a driver for the WMI extensions (wireless and bluetooth power
135 control) of the HP Compaq TC1100 tablet.
138 tristate "HP WMI extras"
141 depends on RFKILL || RFKILL = n
143 Say Y here if you want to support WMI-based hotkeys on HP laptops and
144 to read data from WMI such as docking or ambient light sensor state.
146 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will
150 tristate "MSI Laptop Extras"
152 depends on BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE
154 This is a driver for laptops built by MSI (MICRO-STAR
157 MSI MegaBook S270 (MS-1013)
158 Cytron/TCM/Medion/Tchibo MD96100/SAM2000
160 It adds support for Bluetooth, WLAN and LCD brightness control.
162 More information about this driver is available at
163 <http://0pointer.de/lennart/tchibo.html>.
165 If you have an MSI S270 laptop, say Y or M here.
167 config PANASONIC_LAPTOP
168 tristate "Panasonic Laptop Extras"
169 depends on INPUT && ACPI
170 depends on BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE
172 This driver adds support for access to backlight control and hotkeys
173 on Panasonic Let's Note laptops.
175 If you have a Panasonic Let's note laptop (such as the R1(N variant),
176 R2, R3, R5, T2, W2 and Y2 series), say Y.
179 tristate "Compal Laptop Extras"
181 depends on BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE
184 This is a driver for laptops built by Compal:
191 It adds support for Bluetooth, WLAN and LCD brightness control.
193 If you have an Compal FL9x/IFL9x/FT00 laptop, say Y or M here.
196 tristate "Sony Laptop Extras"
198 select BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE
202 This mini-driver drives the SNC and SPIC devices present in the ACPI
203 BIOS of the Sony Vaio laptops.
205 It gives access to some extra laptop functionalities like Bluetooth,
206 screen brightness control, Fn keys and allows powering on/off some
209 Read <file:Documentation/laptops/sony-laptop.txt> for more information.
212 bool "Sonypi compatibility"
213 depends on SONY_LAPTOP
215 Build the sonypi driver compatibility code into the sony-laptop driver.
218 tristate "ThinkPad ACPI Laptop Extras"
221 depends on RFKILL || RFKILL = n
222 select BACKLIGHT_LCD_SUPPORT
223 select BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE
229 This is a driver for the IBM and Lenovo ThinkPad laptops. It adds
230 support for Fn-Fx key combinations, Bluetooth control, video
231 output switching, ThinkLight control, UltraBay eject and more.
232 For more information about this driver see
233 <file:Documentation/laptops/thinkpad-acpi.txt> and
234 <http://ibm-acpi.sf.net/> .
236 This driver was formerly known as ibm-acpi.
238 Extra functionality will be available if the rfkill (CONFIG_RFKILL)
239 and/or ALSA (CONFIG_SND) subsystems are available in the kernel.
240 Note that if you want ThinkPad-ACPI to be built-in instead of
241 modular, ALSA and rfkill will also have to be built-in.
243 If you have an IBM or Lenovo ThinkPad laptop, say Y or M here.
245 config THINKPAD_ACPI_ALSA_SUPPORT
246 bool "Console audio control ALSA interface"
247 depends on THINKPAD_ACPI
249 depends on SND = y || THINKPAD_ACPI = SND
252 Enables monitoring of the built-in console audio output control
253 (headphone and speakers), which is operated by the mute and (in
254 some ThinkPad models) volume hotkeys.
256 If this option is enabled, ThinkPad-ACPI will export an ALSA card
257 with a single read-only mixer control, which should be used for
258 on-screen-display feedback purposes by the Desktop Environment.
260 Optionally, the driver will also allow software control (the
261 ALSA mixer will be made read-write). Please refer to the driver
262 documentation for details.
264 All IBM models have both volume and mute control. Newer Lenovo
265 models only have mute control (the volume hotkeys are just normal
266 keys and volume control is done through the main HDA mixer).
268 config THINKPAD_ACPI_DEBUGFACILITIES
269 bool "Maintainer debug facilities"
270 depends on THINKPAD_ACPI
273 Enables extra stuff in the thinkpad-acpi which is completely useless
274 for normal use. Read the driver source to find out what it does.
276 Say N here, unless you were told by a kernel maintainer to do
279 config THINKPAD_ACPI_DEBUG
280 bool "Verbose debug mode"
281 depends on THINKPAD_ACPI
284 Enables extra debugging information, at the expense of a slightly
285 increase in driver size.
287 If you are not sure, say N here.
289 config THINKPAD_ACPI_UNSAFE_LEDS
290 bool "Allow control of important LEDs (unsafe)"
291 depends on THINKPAD_ACPI
294 Overriding LED state on ThinkPads can mask important
295 firmware alerts (like critical battery condition), or misled
296 the user into damaging the hardware (undocking or ejecting
297 the bay while buses are still active), etc.
299 LED control on the ThinkPad is write-only (with very few
300 exceptions on very ancient models), which makes it
301 impossible to know beforehand if important information will
302 be lost when one changes LED state.
304 Users that know what they are doing can enable this option
305 and the driver will allow control of every LED, including
306 the ones on the dock stations.
308 Never enable this option on a distribution kernel.
310 Say N here, unless you are building a kernel for your own
311 use, and need to control the important firmware LEDs.
313 config THINKPAD_ACPI_VIDEO
314 bool "Video output control support"
315 depends on THINKPAD_ACPI
318 Allows the thinkpad_acpi driver to provide an interface to control
319 the various video output ports.
321 This feature often won't work well, depending on ThinkPad model,
322 display state, video output devices in use, whether there is a X
323 server running, phase of the moon, and the current mood of
324 Schroedinger's cat. If you can use X.org's RandR to control
325 your ThinkPad's video output ports instead of this feature,
326 don't think twice: do it and say N here to save memory and avoid
327 bad interactions with X.org.
329 NOTE: access to this feature is limited to processes with the
330 CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability, to avoid local DoS issues in platforms
331 where it interacts badly with X.org.
333 If you are not sure, say Y here but do try to check if you could
334 be using X.org RandR instead.
336 config THINKPAD_ACPI_HOTKEY_POLL
337 bool "Support NVRAM polling for hot keys"
338 depends on THINKPAD_ACPI
341 Some thinkpad models benefit from NVRAM polling to detect a few of
342 the hot key press events. If you know your ThinkPad model does not
343 need to do NVRAM polling to support any of the hot keys you use,
344 unselecting this option will save about 1kB of memory.
346 ThinkPads T40 and newer, R52 and newer, and X31 and newer are
347 unlikely to need NVRAM polling in their latest BIOS versions.
349 NVRAM polling can detect at most the following keys: ThinkPad/Access
350 IBM, Zoom, Switch Display (fn+F7), ThinkLight, Volume up/down/mute,
351 Brightness up/down, Display Expand (fn+F8), Hibernate (fn+F12).
353 If you are not sure, say Y here. The driver enables polling only if
354 it is strictly necessary to do so.
357 tristate "Thermal Management driver for Intel menlow platform"
358 depends on ACPI_THERMAL
361 ACPI thermal management enhancement driver on
362 Intel Menlow platform.
367 tristate "Eee PC Hotkey Driver (EXPERIMENTAL)"
370 depends on EXPERIMENTAL
371 depends on RFKILL || RFKILL = n
372 depends on HOTPLUG_PCI
373 select BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE
377 select INPUT_SPARSEKMAP
379 This driver supports the Fn-Fx keys on Eee PC laptops.
381 It also gives access to some extra laptop functionalities like
382 Bluetooth, backlight and allows powering on/off some other
385 If you have an Eee PC laptop, say Y or M here.
392 This driver adds support for the ACPI-WMI (Windows Management
393 Instrumentation) mapper device (PNP0C14) found on some systems.
395 ACPI-WMI is a proprietary extension to ACPI to expose parts of the
396 ACPI firmware to userspace - this is done through various vendor
397 defined methods and data blocks in a PNP0C14 device, which are then
398 made available for userspace to call.
400 The implementation of this in Linux currently only exposes this to
401 other kernel space drivers.
403 This driver is a required dependency to build the firmware specific
404 drivers needed on many machines, including Acer and HP laptops.
406 It is safe to enable this driver even if your DSDT doesn't define
407 any ACPI-WMI devices.
410 tristate "MSI WMI extras"
413 depends on BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE
414 select INPUT_SPARSEKMAP
416 Say Y here if you want to support WMI-based hotkeys on MSI laptops.
418 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will
422 tristate "ASUS/Medion Laptop Extras (DEPRECATED)"
424 select BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE
426 This driver provides support for extra features of ACPI-compatible
427 ASUS laptops. As some of Medion laptops are made by ASUS, it may also
428 support some Medion laptops (such as 9675 for example). It makes all
429 the extra buttons generate standard ACPI events that go through
430 /proc/acpi/events, and (on some models) adds support for changing the
431 display brightness and output, switching the LCD backlight on and off,
432 and most importantly, allows you to blink those fancy LEDs intended
433 for reporting mail and wireless status.
435 Note: display switching code is currently considered EXPERIMENTAL,
436 toying with these values may even lock your machine.
438 All settings are changed via /proc/acpi/asus directory entries. Owner
439 and group for these entries can be set with asus_uid and asus_gid
442 More information and a userspace daemon for handling the extra buttons
443 at <http://acpi4asus.sf.net>.
445 If you have an ACPI-compatible ASUS laptop, say Y or M here. This
446 driver is still under development, so if your laptop is unsupported or
447 something works not quite as expected, please use the mailing list
448 available on the above page (acpi4asus-user@lists.sourceforge.net).
450 NOTE: This driver is deprecated and will probably be removed soon,
451 use asus-laptop instead.
453 config TOPSTAR_LAPTOP
454 tristate "Topstar Laptop Extras"
458 This driver adds support for hotkeys found on Topstar laptops.
460 If you have a Topstar laptop, say Y or M here.
463 tristate "Toshiba Laptop Extras"
466 depends on RFKILL || RFKILL = n
468 select BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE
470 This driver adds support for access to certain system settings
471 on "legacy free" Toshiba laptops. These laptops can be recognized by
472 their lack of a BIOS setup menu and APM support.
474 On these machines, all system configuration is handled through the
475 ACPI. This driver is required for access to controls not covered
476 by the general ACPI drivers, such as LCD brightness, video output,
479 This driver differs from the non-ACPI Toshiba laptop driver (located
480 under "Processor type and features") in several aspects.
481 Configuration is accessed by reading and writing text files in the
482 /proc tree instead of by program interface to /dev. Furthermore, no
483 power management functions are exposed, as those are handled by the
484 general ACPI drivers.
486 More information about this driver is available at
487 <http://memebeam.org/toys/ToshibaAcpiDriver>.
489 If you have a legacy free Toshiba laptop (such as the Libretto L1
492 config TOSHIBA_BT_RFKILL
493 tristate "Toshiba Bluetooth RFKill switch support"
496 This driver adds support for Bluetooth events for the RFKill
497 switch on modern Toshiba laptops with full ACPI support and
500 This driver handles RFKill events for the TOS6205 Bluetooth,
501 and re-enables it when the switch is set back to the 'on'
504 If you have a modern Toshiba laptop with a Bluetooth and an
505 RFKill switch (such as the Portege R500), say Y.
508 tristate "CMPC Laptop Extras"
509 depends on X86 && ACPI
511 select BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE
514 Support for Intel Classmate PC ACPI devices, including some
515 keys as input device, backlight device, tablet and accelerometer
