default y
---help---
Allows the thinkpad_acpi driver to provide an interface to control
the various video output ports.
This feature often won't work well, depending on ThinkPad model,
display state, video output devices in use, whether there is a X
server running, phase of the moon, and the current mood of
Schroedinger's cat. If you can use X.org's RandR to control
your ThinkPad's video output ports instead of this feature,
don't think twice: do it and say N here to save some memory.
If you are not sure, say Y here.
config THINKPAD_ACPI_HOTKEY_POLL
bool "Support NVRAM polling for hot keys"
depends on THINKPAD_ACPI
default y
---help---
Some thinkpad models benefit from NVRAM polling to detect a few of
the hot key press events. If you know your ThinkPad model does not
need to do NVRAM polling to support any of the hot keys you use,
unselecting this option will save about 1kB of memory.
ThinkPads T40 and newer, R52 and newer, and X31 and newer are
unlikely to need NVRAM polling in their latest BIOS versions.
NVRAM polling can detect at most the following keys: ThinkPad/Access
IBM, Zoom, Switch Display (fn+F7), ThinkLight, Volume up/down/mute,
Brightness up/down, Display Expand (fn+F8), Hibernate (fn+F12).
If you are not sure, say Y here. The driver enables polling only if
it is strictly necessary to do so.
