| 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). | |
