This is most useful if you have 1720 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus.

Many "green" 2445 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver 2446 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase. 2447 2448 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't 2449 much point in using this driver and you should say N.

From page 36 of the APM BIOS 2489 specification: "When disabled, the APM BIOS does not automatically 2490 power manage devices, enter the Standby State, enter the Suspend 2491 State, or take power saving steps in response to CPU Idle calls." 2492 This driver will make CPU Idle calls when Linux is idle (unless this 2493 feature is turned off -- see "Do CPU IDLE calls", below). This 2494 should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features 2495 will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn 2496 this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM 2497 support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn 2498 this off if you have a NEC UltraLite Versa 33/C or a Toshiba 2499 T400CDT.

These idle calls 2509 are made after the idle loop has run for some length of time (e.g., 2510 333 mS). On some machines, this will cause a hang at boot time or 2511 whenever the CPU becomes idle.

This also doesn't have anything to 2522 do with your VESA-compliant power-saving monitor. Further, this 2523 option doesn't work for all laptops -- it might not turn off your 2524 backlight at all, or it might print a lot of errors to the console, 2525 especially if you are using gpm. 2526 2527config APM_ALLOW_INTS 2528 bool "Allow interrupts during APM BIOS calls" 2529 help 2530 Normally we disable external interrupts while we are making calls to 2531 the APM BIOS as a measure to lessen the effects of a badly behaving 2532 BIOS implementation.
