Enabling write-combining 1759 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer 1760 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus.

This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want 2063 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a 2064 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs 2065 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area 2066 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy. 2067 2068 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump, 2069 leave the value here unchanged to 0x1000000 and set 2070 CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y.

For location 2455 and more information, read <file:Documentation/power/apm-acpi.txt> 2456 and the Battery Powered Linux mini-HOWTO, available from 2457 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. 2458 2459 This driver does not spin down disk drives (see the hdparm(8) 2460 manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off 2461 VESA-compliant "green" monitors. 2462 2463 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER 2464 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green" 2465 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver 2466 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase. 2467 2468 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't 2469 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get 2470 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to 2471 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling 2472 APM in your BIOS). 2473 2474 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random, 2475 "weird" problems: 2476 2477 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is 2478 enabled. 2479 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel 2480 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass 2481 the "no387" option to the kernel 2482 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel 2483 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling 2484 all but the first 4 MB of RAM) 2485 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked. 2486 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/> 2487 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings 2488 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM 2489 10) install a better fan for the CPU 2490 11) exchange RAM chips 2491 12) exchange the motherboard. 2492 2493 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the 2494 module will be called apm. 2495 2496if APM 2497 2498config APM_IGNORE_USER_SUSPEND 2499 bool "Ignore USER SUSPEND" 2500 ---help--- 2501 This option will ignore USER SUSPEND requests.

This 2514 should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features 2515 will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn 2516 this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM 2517 support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn 2518 this off if you have a NEC UltraLite Versa 33/C or a Toshiba 2519 T400CDT.
