64 The ibmasm device driver allows user space application to access
65 ASM (Advanced Systems Management) functions on the service
66 processor. The driver is meant to be used in conjunction with
67 a user space API.
68 The ibmasm driver also enables the OS to use the UART on the
69 service processor board as a regular serial port. To make use of
70 this feature serial driver support (CONFIG_SERIAL_8250) must be

348 Allows the thinkpad_acpi driver to provide an interface to control
349 the various video output ports.
350
351 This feature often won't work well, depending on ThinkPad model,
352 display state, video output devices in use, whether there is a X
353 server running, phase of the moon, and the current mood of
354 Schroedinger's cat. If you can use X.org's RandR to control
355 your ThinkPad's video output ports instead of this feature,
356 don't think twice: do it and say N here to save some memory.
357
358 If you are not sure, say Y here.

361 bool "Suport NVRAM polling for hot keys"
362 depends on THINKPAD_ACPI
363 default y
364 ---help---
365 Some thinkpad models benefit from NVRAM polling to detect a few of
366 the hot key press events. If you know your ThinkPad model does not
367 need to do NVRAM polling to support any of the hot keys you use,
368 unselecting this option will save about 1kB of memory.
369
370 ThinkPads T40 and newer, R52 and newer, and X31 and newer are
371 unlikely to need NVRAM polling in their latest BIOS versions.
372
373 NVRAM polling can detect at most the following keys: ThinkPad/Access
374 IBM, Zoom, Switch Display (fn+F7), ThinkLight, Volume up/down/mute,
375 Brightness up/down, Display Expand (fn+F8), Hibernate (fn+F12).
376
377 If you are not sure, say Y here. The driver enables polling only if
378 it is strictly necessary to do so.

442 The channel interface driver allows applications to communicate
443 with iLO/iLO2 management processors present on HP ProLiant
444 servers. Upon loading, the driver creates /dev/hpilo/dXccbN files,
445 which can be used to gather data from the management processor,
446 via read and write system calls.

448 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
