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

27 tristate "MDA text console (dual-headed)"
29 Say Y here if you have an old MDA or monochrome Hercules graphics
30 adapter in your system acting as a second head ( = video card). You
31 will then be able to use two monitors with your Linux system. Do not
32 say Y here if your MDA card is the primary card in your system; the
33 normal VGA driver will handle it.
35 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
36 module will be called mdacon.
40 config SGI_NEWPORT_CONSOLE
41 tristate "SGI Newport Console support"
45 Say Y here if you want the console on the Newport aka XL graphics
46 card of your Indy. Most people say Y here.

53 config DUMMY_CONSOLE_COLUMNS
54 int "Initial number of console screen columns"
55 depends on DUMMY_CONSOLE && !ARM
59 On PA-RISC, the default value is 160, which should fit a 1280x1024
61 Select 80 if you use a 640x480 resolution by default.
63 config DUMMY_CONSOLE_ROWS
64 int "Initial number of console screen rows"
65 depends on DUMMY_CONSOLE && !ARM
69 On PA-RISC, the default value is 64, which should fit a 1280x1024
71 Select 25 if you use a 640x480 resolution by default.
73 config FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE
74 bool "Framebuffer Console support"
76 select VT_HW_CONSOLE_BINDING
80 Low-level framebuffer-based console driver.
82 config FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE_DETECT_PRIMARY
83 bool "Map the console to the primary display device"
84 depends on FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE
87 If this option is selected, the framebuffer console will
88 automatically select the primary display device (if the architecture
89 supports this feature). Otherwise, the framebuffer console will
90 always select the first framebuffer driver that is loaded. The latter
91 is the default behavior.
93 You can always override the automatic selection of the primary device
94 by using the fbcon=map: boot option.
98 config FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE_ROTATION
99 bool "Framebuffer Console Rotation"
100 depends on FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE
102 Enable display rotation for the framebuffer console. This is done
103 in software and may be significantly slower than a normally oriented
104 display. Note that the rotation is done at the console level only
105 such that other users of the framebuffer will remain normally
109 bool "STI text console"
114 The STI console is the builtin display/keyboard on HP-PARISC
115 machines. Say Y here to build support for it into your kernel.
116 The alternative is to use your primary serial port as a console.
