I disable *everything* and enable only the necessary things I need for my
laptop. I detest those thousand-modules-dist-kernels, brrr. Seriously, that
is something that should be written somewhere. Take as an example the
man page of iotop:
iotop watches I/O usage information output by the Linux kernel
(requires 2.6.20 or later) and displays a table of current I/O usage by
processes or threads on the system. At least the CONFIG_TASK_DELAY_ACCT
and CONFIG_TASK_IO_ACCOUNTING options need to be enabled in your Linux
kernel build configuration, these options depend on CONFIG_TASKSTATS.
That is clearly documented behaviour and needs. Please add something
similar either to README.Debian, the man page, or any other place
you think is appropriate.
Best wishes
