- 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.

-config ARTHUR
- tristate "RISC OS personality"
- depends on CPU_32
- help
- Say Y here to include the kernel code necessary if you want to run
- Acorn RISC OS/Arthur binaries under Linux. This code is still very
- experimental; if this sounds frightening, say N and sleep in peace.
- You can also say M here to compile this support as a module (which
- will be called arthur).
-
-config CMDLINE
- string "Default kernel command string"
- default ""
- help
- On some architectures (EBSA110 and CATS), there is currently no way
- for the boot loader to pass arguments to the kernel. For these
- architectures, you should supply some command-line options at build
- time by entering them here. As a minimum, you should specify the
- memory size and the root device (e.g., mem=64M root=/dev/nfs).

-config LEDS
- bool "Timer and CPU usage LEDs"
- depends on ARCH_NETWINDER || ARCH_EBSA110 || ARCH_EBSA285 || ARCH_SHARK || ARCH_CO285 || ARCH_SA1100 || ARCH_LUBBOCK || MACH_MAINSTONE || ARCH_PXA_IDP || ARCH_INTEGRATOR || ARCH_CDB89712 || ARCH_P720T || ARCH_OMAP || ARCH_VERSATILE_PB || ARCH_IMX
- help
- If you say Y here, the LEDs on your machine will be used
- to provide useful information about your current system status.
-
- If you are compiling a kernel for a NetWinder or EBSA-285, you will
- be able to select which LEDs are active using the options below. If
- you are compiling a kernel for the EBSA-110 or the LART however, the
- red LED will simply flash regularly to indicate that the system is
- still functional. It is safe to say Y here if you have a CATS
- system, but the driver will do nothing.

-config LEDS_TIMER
- bool "Timer LED" if LEDS && (ARCH_NETWINDER || ARCH_EBSA285 || ARCH_SHARK || MACH_MAINSTONE || ARCH_CO285 || ARCH_SA1100 || ARCH_LUBBOCK || ARCH_PXA_IDP || ARCH_INTEGRATOR || ARCH_P720T || ARCH_VERSATILE_PB || ARCH_IMX)

- default y if ARCH_EBSA110
- help
- If you say Y here, one of the system LEDs (the green one on the
- NetWinder, the amber one on the EBSA285, or the red one on the LART)
- will flash regularly to indicate that the system is still
- operational. This is mainly useful to kernel hackers who are
- debugging unstable kernels.
-
- The LART uses the same LED for both Timer LED and CPU usage LED
- functions. You may choose to use both, but the Timer LED function
- will overrule the CPU usage LED.
-
-config LEDS_CPU
- bool "CPU usage LED"
- depends on LEDS && (ARCH_NETWINDER || ARCH_EBSA285 || ARCH_SHARK || ARCH_CO285 || ARCH_SA1100 || ARCH_LUBBOCK || MACH_MAINSTONE || ARCH_PXA_IDP || ARCH_INTEGRATOR || ARCH_P720T || ARCH_VERSATILE_PB || ARCH_IMX)
- help
- If you say Y here, the red LED will be used to give a good real
- time indication of CPU usage, by lighting whenever the idle task
- is not currently executing.
