  1120. a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can

  1122. coprocessor or this emulation.
  1123. If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
  1124. say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
  1125. be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel
  1126. command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor
  1127. is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
  1128. loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
  1129. boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you

  1138. ---help---
  1139. On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
  1140. the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
  1141. processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
  1142. a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
  1143. allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
  1144. before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
  1145. of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
  1146. /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
  1147. MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
  1148. This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
  1149. control registers on other processors can be easily supported
  1150. as well:
  1151. The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
  1152. Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
  1153. these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
  1154. The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
  1155. MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
  1156. write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
  1157. and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
  1158. Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
  1159. set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
  1160. can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
  1161. You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
  1162. just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

  1259. you can start any kernel with it, not just Linux.
  1260. The name comes from the similarity to the exec system call.
  1261. It is an ongoing process to be certain the hardware in a machine
  1262. is properly shutdown, so do not be surprised if this code does not

  1290. This gives the physical address where the kernel is loaded.
  1291. If kernel is a not relocatable (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=n) then
  1292. bzImage will decompress itself to above physical address and
  1293. run from there. Otherwise, bzImage will run from the address where
  1294. it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
  1295. address.
  1296. In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
  1297. as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
  1298. (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
  1299. address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
  1300. to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
  1301. vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
  1302. to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
  1303. (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.
  1304. So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump,
  1305. leave the value here unchanged to 0x1000000 and set
  1306. CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y. Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux
  1307. for capturing the crash dump change this value to start of
  1308. the reserved region. In other words, it can be set based on
  1309. the "X" value as specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM"
  1310. command line boot parameter passed to the panic-ed
  1311. kernel. Please take a look at Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt
  1312. for more details about crash dumps.
  1313. Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
  1314. one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
  1315. as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
  1316. gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
  1317. is present because there are users out there who continue to use
  1318. vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the
  1319. line.

  1350. If bootloader loads the kernel at a non-aligned address and

  1436. APM is a BIOS specification for saving power using several different
  1437. techniques. This is mostly useful for battery powered laptops with
  1438. APM compliant BIOSes. If you say Y here, the system time will be
  1439. reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide
  1440. battery status information, and user-space programs will receive
  1441. notification of APM "events" (e.g. battery status change).
  1442. If you select "Y" here, you can disable actual use of the APM
  1443. BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time.
  1444. Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for
  1445. machines with more than one CPU.
  1446. In order to use APM, you will need supporting software. For location
  1447. and more information, read <file:Documentation/power/apm-acpi.txt>
  1448. and the Battery Powered Linux mini-HOWTO, available from
  1449. <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
  1450. This driver does not spin down disk drives (see the hdparm(8)
  1451. manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off
  1452. VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
  1453. This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
  1454. 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
  1455. desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
  1456. may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
  1457. Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
  1458. much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
  1459. random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
  1460. anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
  1461. APM in your BIOS).
  1462. Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
  1463. "weird" problems:
  1464. 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
  1465. enabled.
  1466. 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
  1467. 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
  1468. the "no387" option to the kernel
  1469. 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
  1470. 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
  1471. all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
  1472. 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
  1473. 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
  1474. 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
  1475. 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
  1476. 10) install a better fan for the CPU
  1477. 11) exchange RAM chips
  1478. 12) exchange the motherboard.

  1494. State, or take power saving steps in response to CPU Idle calls."
  1495. This driver will make CPU Idle calls when Linux is idle (unless this
  1496. feature is turned off -- see "Do CPU IDLE calls", below). This
  1497. should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features
  1498. will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn
  1499. this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM
  1500. support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn
  1501. this off if you have a NEC UltraLite Versa 33/C or a Toshiba
  1502. T400CDT. This is off by default since most machines do fine without
  1503. this feature.

  1509. a slowed CPU clock rate, when the machine is idle. These idle calls
  1510. are made after the idle loop has run for some length of time (e.g.,
  1511. 333 mS). On some machines, this will cause a hang at boot time or

  1521. when using the X Window system. This also doesn't have anything to
  1522. do with your VESA-compliant power-saving monitor. Further, this
  1523. option doesn't work for all laptops -- it might not turn off your
