The ARM series is a line of low-power-consumption RISC chip designs

handhelds such as the Compaq IPAQ. ARM-based PCs are no longer

The Extended Industry Standard Architecture (EISA) bus was
|
|
developed as an open alternative to the IBM MicroChannel bus.
|
|
|
|
The EISA bus provided some of the features of the IBM MicroChannel
|
|
bus while maintaining backward compatibility with cards made for
|
|
the older ISA bus. The EISA bus saw limited use between 1988 and
|
|
1995 when it was made obsolete by the PCI bus.
|
|

it has to run directly from flash, so it will take more space to

Say Y to include the NWFPE floating point emulator in the kernel.
|
|
This is necessary to run most binaries. Linux does not currently
|
|
support floating point hardware so you need to say Y here even if
|
|
your machine has an FPA or floating point co-processor podule.
|
|
|

You may say N here if you are going to load the Acorn FPEmulator
|
|
early in the bootup.

Say Y to include 80-bit support in the kernel floating-point
|
|
emulator. Otherwise, only 32 and 64-bit support is compiled in.
|
|
Note that gcc does not generate 80-bit operations by default,
|
|
so in most cases this option only enlarges the size of the
|
|
floating point emulator without any good reason.
|

You almost surely want to say N here.

Say Y here to include the FAST floating point emulator in the kernel.
|
|
This is an experimental much faster emulator which now also has full
|
|
precision for the mantissa. It does not support any exceptions.
|
|
It is very simple, and approximately 3-6 times faster than NWFPE.
|
|
|
|
It should be sufficient for most programs. It may be not suitable
|
|
for scientific calculations, but you have to check this for yourself.
|
|
If you do not feel you need a faster FP emulation you should better
|
|
choose NWFPE.

if your hardware includes a VFP unit.

Please see <file:Documentation/arm/VFP/release-notes.txt> for
|
|
release notes and additional status information.

Say N if your target does not have VFP hardware.

|

---help---
|
|
"Power Management" means that parts of your computer are shut
|
|
off or put into a power conserving "sleep" mode if they are not
|
|
being used. There are two competing standards for doing this: APM
|
|
and ACPI. If you want to use either one, say Y here and then also
|
|
to the requisite support below.
|
|
|
|
Power Management is most important for battery powered laptop
|
|
computers; if you have a laptop, check out the Linux Laptop home
|
|
page on the WWW at <http://www.linux-on-laptops.com/> or
|
|
Tuxmobil - Linux on Mobile Computers at <http://www.tuxmobil.org/>
|
|
and the Battery Powered Linux mini-HOWTO, available from
|
|
<http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
|
|
|
|
Note that, even if you say N here, Linux on the x86 architecture
|
|
will issue the hlt instruction if nothing is to be done, thereby
|
|
sending the processor to sleep and saving power.
|
|
|

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

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

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

module will be called apm.
