13 The memory driver provides two character devices, mem and kmem, which
14 provide access to the system's memory. The mem device is a view of
15 physical memory, and each byte in the device corresponds to the
16 matching physical address. The kmem device is the same as mem, but
17 the addresses correspond to the kernel's virtual address space rather
18 than physical memory. These devices are standard parts of a Linux
19 system and most users should say Y here. You might say N if very
20 security conscience or memory is tight.

119 Also read the Printing-HOWTO, available from

121
122 It is possible to share one parallel port among several devices

128
129 If you have several parallel ports, you can specify which ports to
130 use with the "lp" kernel command line option. (Try "man bootparam"
131 or see the documentation of your boot loader (lilo or loadlin) about
132 how to pass options to the kernel at boot time.) The syntax of the
133 "lp" command line option can be found in <file:drivers/char/lp.c>.
134
135 If you have more than 8 printers, you need to increase the LP_NO
136 macro in lp.c and the PARPORT_MAX macro in parport.h.

143 can have a console on the printer. This option adds support for
144 doing that; to actually get it to happen you need to pass the
145 option "console=lp0" to the kernel at boot time.
146
147 If the printer is out of paper (or off, or unplugged, or too
148 busy..) the kernel will stall until the printer is ready again.
149 By defining CONSOLE_LP_STRICT to 0 (at your own risk) you
150 can make the kernel continue when this happens,

276
277 This memory is conventionally called "CMOS RAM" on PCs and "NVRAM"
278 on Ataris. /dev/nvram may be used to view settings there, or to

280 save a few bits of very important data that may not be lost over
281 power-off and for which writing to disk is too insecure. Note
282 however that most NVRAM space in a PC belongs to the BIOS and you

284 for a guide to the use of CMOS bytes by your BIOS.

460 The ACP modem (Mwave) for Linux is a WinModem. It is composed of a
461 kernel driver and a user level application. Together these components
462 support direct attachment to public switched telephone networks (PSTNs)
463 and support selected world wide countries.
464
465 This version of the ACP Modem driver supports the IBM Thinkpad 600E,
466 600, and 770 that include on board ACP modem hardware.
467
468 The modem also supports the standard communications port interface
469 (ttySx) and is compatible with the Hayes AT Command Set.
470
471 The user level application needed to use this driver can be found at
472 the IBM Linux Technology Center (LTC) web site:
473 <http://www.ibm.com/linux/ltc/>.
