  953. give you some hints here ["man dmesg"].) Everyone needs either a
  954. coprocessor or this emulation.
  955. If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
  956. say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
  957. be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel

  960. loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at

  970. On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
  971. the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
  972. processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
  973. a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
  974. allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
  975. before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
  976. of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
  977. /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
  978. MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
  979. This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
  980. control registers on other processors can be easily supported
  981. as well:
  982. The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
  983. Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
  984. these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
  985. The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
  986. MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
  987. write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
  988. and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
  989. Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
  990. set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
  991. can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
  992. You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll

  1266. APM is a BIOS specification for saving power using several different

  1268. APM compliant BIOSes. If you say Y here, the system time will be
  1269. reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide
  1270. battery status information, and user-space programs will receive
  1271. notification of APM "events" (e.g. battery status change).
  1272. If you select "Y" here, you can disable actual use of the APM
  1273. BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time.
  1274. Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for
  1275. machines with more than one CPU.
  1276. In order to use APM, you will need supporting software. For location
  1277. and more information, read <file:Documentation/power/pm.txt> and the
  1278. Battery Powered Linux mini-HOWTO, available from
  1279. <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.

  1281. manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off
  1282. VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
  1283. This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
  1284. 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
  1285. desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
  1286. may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
  1287. Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
  1288. much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
  1289. random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
  1290. anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
  1291. APM in your BIOS).
  1292. Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
  1293. "weird" problems:
  1294. 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
  1295. enabled.
  1296. 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
  1297. 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
  1298. the "no387" option to the kernel
  1299. 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
  1300. 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
  1301. all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
  1302. 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
  1303. 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
  1304. 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
  1305. 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
  1306. 10) install a better fan for the CPU
  1307. 11) exchange RAM chips
