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

| depends on VGA_CONSOLE | |
| default n | |
| help | |
| The scrollback buffer of the standard VGA console is located in | |
| the VGA RAM. The size of this RAM is fixed and is quite small. | |
| If you require a larger scrollback buffer, this can be placed in | |
| System RAM which is dynamically allocated during intialization. | |
| Placing the scrollback buffer in System RAM will slightly slow | |
| down the console. | |
| If you want this feature, say 'Y' here and enter the amount of | |
| RAM to allocate for this buffer. If unsure, say 'N'. | |
| config VGACON_SOFT_SCROLLBACK_SIZE | |

| help | |
| Enter the amount of System RAM to allocate for the scrollback | |
| buffer. Each 64KB will give you approximately 16 80x25 | |
| screenfuls of scrollback buffer | |
| config VIDEO_SELECT | |
| bool "Video mode selection support" | |

| ---help--- | |
| This enables support for text mode selection on kernel startup. If | |
| you want to take advantage of some high-resolution text mode your | |
| card's BIOS offers, but the traditional Linux utilities like | |
| SVGATextMode don't, you can say Y here and set the mode using the | |
| "vga=" option from your boot loader (lilo or loadlin) or set | |
| "vga=ask" which brings up a video mode menu on kernel startup. (Try | |
| "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot loader about | |
| how to pass options to the kernel.) | |
| Read the file <file:Documentation/svga.txt> for more information | |
| about the Video mode selection support. If unsure, say N. | |

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