Subject: help for ACPI_CONTAINER sucks
Date: Sat, 15 Jan 2005 15:21:29 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20050115222129.GB10070@colo.lackof.org> (raw)
Help for ACPI_CONTAINER is just useless:
This is the ACPI generic container driver which supports
ACPI0004, PNP0A05 and PNP0A06 devices.
Help should explain what those devices are and what might not work
unless I enable ACPI_CONTAINER. As a !acpi_developer I have no clue
and am just annoyed by the question.
Here is a fictious example (I have no clue about ACPI) might provide
some guidance on what I was expecting:
The ACPI generic container driver provides support for:
ACPI0004 - Hotplug IO
PNP0A05 - Hotplug CPU
PNP0A06 - Hotplug Memory
One can use those devices but can't access hotplug features
unless this option is enabled.
If one selects "m", this driver can be loaded with
"modprobe acpi_container".
hth,
grant
