+
+ <para>&intel; EM64T is an extended version of IA-32 (x86) and
+ different from &intel; IA-64 (Itanium) architecture. Some of
+ &intel;'s old documentation refers to &intel; EM64T as
+ <quote>64-bit extension technology</quote> or
+ <quote>IA-32e</quote>.</para>
+
+ <para>Both Uniprocessor (UP) and Symmetric Multi-processor (SMP)
+ configurations are supported.</para>
+
+ <para>In many respects, &os;/&arch.amd64; is similar to
+ &os;/&arch.i386;, in terms of drivers supported. Generally,
+ drivers that already function correctly on other 64-bit
+ platforms should work.</para>
+
+ </sect2>
+
+ <sect2 xml:id="proc-i386">
+ <title>i386</title>
+
+ <para>&os;/&arch.i386; runs on a wide variety of <quote>IBM PC
+ compatible</quote> machines. Due to the wide range of
+ hardware available for this architecture, it is impossible
+ to exhaustively list all combinations of equipment supported
+ by &os;. Nevertheless, some general guidelines are
+ presented here.</para>
+
+ <para>Almost all &i386;-compatible processors with a floating
+ point unit are supported. All &intel; processors beginning
+ with the 80486 are supported, including the 80486, &pentium;,
+ &pentium; Pro, &pentium; II, &pentium; III, &pentium; 4, and
+ variants thereof, such as the &xeon; and &celeron; processors.
+ All &i386;-compatible AMD processors are also supported,
+ including the &am486;, &am5x86;, K5, &amd.k6; (and variants),
+ &amd.athlon; (including Athlon-MP, Athlon-XP, Athlon-4, and
+ Athlon Thunderbird), and &amd.duron; processors. The AMD
+ Élan SC520 embedded processor is supported. The
+ Transmeta Crusoe is recognized and supported, as are
+ &i386;-compatible processors from Cyrix and NexGen.</para>
+
+ <para>There is a wide variety of motherboards available for this
+ architecture. Motherboards using the ISA, VLB, EISA, AGP, and
+ PCI expansion buses are well-supported. There is some
+ limited support for the MCA (<quote>MicroChannel</quote>)
+ expansion bus used in the IBM PS/2 line of PCs.</para>
+
+ <para>Symmetric multi-processor (SMP) systems are generally
+ supported by &os;, although in some cases, BIOS or motherboard
+ bugs may generate some problems. Perusal of the archives of
+ the &a.smp; may yield some clues.</para>
+
+ <para>&os; will take advantage of SMT (Symmetric MultiThreading,
+ also known as HyperThreading on &intel; CPUs) on the supported
+ CPUs. The <filename>GENERIC</filename> kernel which is
+ installed by default will automatically detect the additional
+ logical processors. The default &os; scheduler recognizes
+ processor topology on the system and selects logical and
+ physical processors to obtain optimal performance.
+ The &man.smp.4; manual page has more details.</para>
+
+ <para>&os; will take advantage of Physical Address Extensions
+ (PAE) support on CPUs that support this feature. A kernel
+ with the <literal>PAE</literal> feature enabled will detect
+ memory above 4 gigabytes and allow it to be used by the
+ system. This feature places constraints on the device drivers
+ and other features of &os; which may be used; consult the
+ &man.pae.4; manual page for more details.</para>
+
+ <para>&os; will generally run on i386-based laptops, albeit with
+ varying levels of support for certain hardware features such
+ as sound, graphics, power management, and PCCARD expansion
+ slots. These features tend to vary in idiosyncratic ways
+ between machines, and frequently require special-case support
+ in &os; to work around hardware bugs or other oddities. When
+ in doubt, a search of the archives of the &a.mobile; may be
+ useful.</para>
+
+ <para>Most modern laptops (as well as many desktops) use the
+ Advanced Configuration and Power Management (ACPI) standard.
+ &os; supports ACPI via the ACPI Component Architecture
+ reference implementation from &intel;, as described in the
+ &man.acpi.4; manual page. The use of ACPI causes
+ instabilities on some machines and it may be necessary to
+ disable the ACPI driver, which is normally loaded via a kernel
+ module. This may be accomplished by adding the following line
+ to <filename>/boot/device.hints</filename>:</para>
+
+ <programlisting>hint.acpi.0.disabled="1"</programlisting>
+
+ <para>Users debugging ACPI-related problems may find it useful
+ to disable portions of the ACPI functionality. The
+ &man.acpi.4; manual page has more information on how to do
+ this via loader tunables.</para>
+
+ <para>ACPI depends on a Differentiated System Descriptor Table
+ (DSDT) provided by each machine's BIOS. Some machines have
+ bad or incomplete DSDTs, which prevents ACPI from functioning
+ correctly. Replacement DSDTs for some machines can be found
+ at the <link xlink:href="http://acpi.sourceforge.net/dsdt/index.php">DSDT</link>
+ section of the <link xlink:href="http://acpi.sourceforge.net/">ACPI4Linux</link> project
+ Web site. &os; can use these DSDTs to override the DSDT
+ provided by the BIOS; see the &man.acpi.4; manual page for
+ more information.</para>

+ The "Supported Devices" section of the release notes.
+ Generally processor-independent, with conditional text
+ inclusion handling any architecture-dependent text.
+
+ Within each subsection describing a class of hardware
+ (i.e. Ethernet interfaces), list broad groups of devices
+ alphabetically as paragraphs sorted alphabetically (frequently
+ these groups will be arranged by manufacturer, i.e. 3Com
+ Ethernet interfaces).
+
+ Where applicable, a "Miscellaneous" section may follow all
+ other named sections.
+
+ These guidelines are not hard-and-fast rules, and exceptions
+ will occur. Following these guidelines (vague as they may be)
+ is highly recommended to try to keep the formatting of
+ this section consistent.
+
+ We give manpage references using the &man entities where
+ possible. If a driver has no manpage (and consequently no
+ &man entity, we simply give the name of the driver).
+ Please avoid doing &man entity conversions unless you
+ know for sure that an entity and manpage exist; sweeps through
+ this file to fix "missed" conversions are likely to break the
+ build.

+
+ <para>This section describes the devices currently known to be
+ supported by &os;. Other configurations may also work, but
+ simply have not been tested yet. Feedback, updates, and
+ corrections to this list are encouraged.</para>
+
+ <para>Where possible, the drivers applicable to each device or
+ class of devices is listed. If the driver in question has a
+ manual page in the &os; base distribution (most should), it is
+ referenced here. Information on specific models of supported
+ devices, controllers, etc. can be found in the manual
+ pages.</para>
+
+ <note>
+ <para>The device lists in this document are being generated
+ automatically from &os; manual pages. This means that some
+ devices, which are supported by multiple drivers, may appear
+ multiple times.</para>
