acpi=force can be used to override this mechanism. 2001 to disable ACPI by default on platforms with DMI BIOS date before January 1 that year. 'Disable ACPI for systems before Jan 1st this year' if X86Įnter a 4-digit year, e.g.

Thist option is to load a custom ACPI DSDT If you don't know what that is, say N.Įnter the full path name to the file wich includes the AmlCode declaration. If you have a legacy free Toshiba laptop (such as the Libretto L1 series), say Y.

More information about this driver is available at. Furthermore, no power management functions are exposed, as those are handled by the general ACPI drivers. Configuration is accessed by reading and writing text files in the /proc tree instead of by program interface to /dev. This driver differs from the non-ACPI Toshiba laptop driver (located under 'Processor type and features') in several aspects. This driver is required for access to controls not covered by the general ACPI drivers, such as LCD brightness, video output, etc. On these machines, all system configuration is handled through the ACPI. These laptops can be recognized by their lack of a BIOS setup menu and APM support. This driver adds support for access to certain system settings on 'legacy free' Toshiba laptops.

If you have an IBM ThinkPad laptop, say Y or M here. For more information about this driver see and.

It adds support for Fn-Fx key combinations, Bluetooth control, video output switching, ThinkLight control, UltraBay eject and more. This is a Linux ACPI driver for the IBM ThinkPad laptops.

(on/off/module) IBM ThinkPad Laptop Extras.

This driver is still under development, so if your laptop is unsupported or something works not quite as expected, please use the mailing list available on the above page Option: ACPI_IBM If you have an ACPI-compatible ASUS laptop, say Y or M here. More information and a userspace daemon for handling the extra buttons at. Owner and group for these entries can be set with asus_uid and asus_gid parameters. All settings are changed via /proc/acpi/asus directory entries.

Note: display switching code is currently considered EXPERIMENTAL, toying with these values may even lock your machine. It makes all the extra buttons generate standard ACPI events that go through /proc/acpi/events, and (on some models) adds support for changing the display brightness and output, switching the LCD backlight on and off, and most importantly, allows you to blink those fancy LEDs intended for reporting mail and wireless status. As some of Medion laptops are made by ASUS, it may also support some Medion laptops (such as 9675 for example).

default y -help- This driver provides support for extra features of ACPI-compatible ASUS laptops.

default y if IA64_GENERIC || IA64_SGI_SN2.

It is HIGHLY recommended that this option be enabled, as your processor(s) may be damaged without it. Most mobile and some desktop systems support ACPI thermal zones. This driver adds support for ACPI thermal zones.

depends on ACPI_PROCESSOR & HOTPLUG_CPU.

It is required by several flavors of cpufreq Performance-state drivers. This driver installs ACPI as the idle handler for Linux, and uses ACPI C2 and C3 processor states to save power, on systems that support it. This driver adds support for ACPI fan devices, allowing user-mode applications to perform basic fan control (on, off, status).

(on/off/module) Generic Hotkey (EXPERIMENTAL)Įxperimental consolidated hotkey driver.

It may or may not work for your integrated video device. This driver implement the ACPI Extensions For Display Adapters for integrated graphics devices on motherboard, as specified in ACPI 2.0 Specification, Appendix B, allowing to perform some basic control like defining the video POST device, retrieving EDID information or to setup a video output, etc.

#How to update cpu drivers on linux mint software#

This is necessary for software controlled poweroff. A daemon reads /proc/acpi/event and perform user-defined actions such as shutting down the system. This driver handles events on the power, sleep and lid buttons.

If you have a mobile system with a battery, say Y. This driver adds support for battery information through /proc/acpi/battery. If you have a system that can switch between A/C and battery, say Y. This driver adds support for the AC Adapter object, which indicates whether a system is on AC, or not. This option is not recommended for anyone except those doing driver power management development.Ĭreate /proc/acpi/sleep Deprecated by /sys/power/state

Although this option sounds really nifty, barely any of the device drivers have been converted to the new driver model and hence few have proper power management support.

Linux support for ACPI is based on Intel Corporation's ACPI Component Architecture (ACPI CA).
