11 | help | |
12 | Saying Y here will allow you to use Linux in text mode through a | |
13 | display that complies with the generic VGA standard. Virtually | |
14 | everyone wants that. | |
15 | ||
16 | The program SVGATextMode can be used to utilize SVGA video cards to | |
17 | their full potential in text mode. Download it from | |
18 | <ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/utils/console/>. | |
19 | ||
20 | Say Y. | |

24 | depends on VGA_CONSOLE | |
25 | default n | |
26 | help | |
27 | The scrollback buffer of the standard VGA console is located in | |
28 | the VGA RAM. The size of this RAM is fixed and is quite small. | |
29 | If you require a larger scrollback buffer, this can be placed in | |
01dd2fbf | 30 | System RAM which is dynamically allocated during initialization. |
15bdab95 AD |
31 | Placing the scrollback buffer in System RAM will slightly slow |
32 | down the console. | |
33 | ||
34 | If you want this feature, say 'Y' here and enter the amount of | |
35 | RAM to allocate for this buffer. If unsure, say 'N'. | |

41 | help | |
42 | Enter the amount of System RAM to allocate for the scrollback | |
43 | buffer. Each 64KB will give you approximately 16 80x25 | |

49 | ---help--- | |
50 | Say Y here if you have an old MDA or monochrome Hercules graphics | |
51 | adapter in your system acting as a second head ( = video card). You | |
52 | will then be able to use two monitors with your Linux system. Do not | |
53 | say Y here if your MDA card is the primary card in your system; the | |
54 | normal VGA driver will handle it. | |
55 | ||
56 | To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the | |
57 | module will be called mdacon. | |

102 | ---help--- | |
103 | If this option is selected, the framebuffer console will | |
104 | automatically select the primary display device (if the architecture | |
105 | supports this feature). Otherwise, the framebuffer console will | |
106 | always select the first framebuffer driver that is loaded. The latter | |
107 | is the default behavior. | |
108 | ||
109 | You can always override the automatic selection of the primary device | |
110 | by using the fbcon=map: boot option. | |

118 | Enable display rotation for the framebuffer console. This is done | |
119 | in software and may be significantly slower than a normally oriented | |

121 | such that other users of the framebuffer will remain normally | |

137 | Say Y here if you would like to use fonts other than the default | |
138 | your frame buffer console usually use. | |
139 | ||
140 | Note that the answer to this question won't directly affect the | |
