+config VGA_CONSOLE
+ bool "VGA text console" if EXPERT || !X86

+ select APERTURE_HELPERS if (DRM || FB || VFIO_PCI_CORE)
+ default y
+ 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/>.
+
+ Say Y.
+
+config MDA_CONSOLE
+ depends on !M68K && !PARISC && ISA
+ tristate "MDA text console (dual-headed)"
+ 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.
+
+config SGI_NEWPORT_CONSOLE
+ tristate "SGI Newport Console support"
+ depends on SGI_IP22 && HAS_IOMEM
+ select FONT_SUPPORT
+ help
+ Say Y here if you want the console on the Newport aka XL graphics
+ card of your Indy. Most people say Y here.
+

+ bool
+ default y
+
+config DUMMY_CONSOLE_COLUMNS
+ int "Initial number of console screen columns"
+ depends on DUMMY_CONSOLE && !ARM
+ default 160 if PARISC
+ default 80
+ help
+ On PA-RISC, the default value is 160, which should fit a 1280x1024
+ monitor.
+ Select 80 if you use a 640x480 resolution by default.
+
+config DUMMY_CONSOLE_ROWS
+ int "Initial number of console screen rows"
+ depends on DUMMY_CONSOLE && !ARM
+ default 64 if PARISC
+ default 25
+ help
+ On PA-RISC, the default value is 64, which should fit a 1280x1024
+ monitor.
+ Select 25 if you use a 640x480 resolution by default.

+ Low-level framebuffer-based console driver.
+
+config FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE_LEGACY_ACCELERATION
+ bool "Enable legacy fbcon hardware acceleration code"
+ depends on FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE
+ default y if PARISC
+ default n
+ help
+ This option enables the fbcon (framebuffer text-based) hardware
+ acceleration for graphics drivers which were written for the fbdev
+ graphics interface.
+
+ On modern machines, on mainstream machines (like x86-64) or when
+ using a modern Linux distribution those fbdev drivers usually aren't used.
+ So enabling this option wouldn't have any effect, which is why you want
+ to disable this option on such newer machines.
+
+ If you compile this kernel for older machines which still require the
+ fbdev drivers, you may want to say Y.
+
+ If unsure, select n.
+
+config FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE_DETECT_PRIMARY
+ bool "Map the console to the primary display device"
+ depends on FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE
+ default n
+ help
+ If this option is selected, the framebuffer console will
+ automatically select the primary display device (if the architecture
+ supports this feature). Otherwise, the framebuffer console will
+ always select the first framebuffer driver that is loaded. The latter
+ is the default behavior.
+
+ You can always override the automatic selection of the primary device
+ by using the fbcon=map: boot option.
+
+ If unsure, select n.
+
+config FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE_ROTATION
+ bool "Framebuffer Console Rotation"
+ depends on FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE
+ help
+ Enable display rotation for the framebuffer console. This is done
+ in software and may be significantly slower than a normally oriented
+ display. Note that the rotation is done at the console level only
+ such that other users of the framebuffer will remain normally
+ oriented.
+
+config FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE_DEFERRED_TAKEOVER
+ bool "Framebuffer Console Deferred Takeover"
+ depends on FB=y && FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE && DUMMY_CONSOLE
+ help
+ If enabled this defers the framebuffer console taking over the
+ console from the dummy console until the first text is displayed on
+ the console. This is useful in combination with the "quiet" kernel
+ commandline option to keep the framebuffer contents initially put up
+ by the firmware in place, rather then replacing the contents with a
+ black screen as soon as fbcon loads.
+
+config STI_CONSOLE
+ bool "STI text console"
+ depends on PARISC && HAS_IOMEM
+ select FONT_SUPPORT
+ select CRC32
+ default y
+ help
+ The STI console is the builtin display/keyboard on HP-PARISC
+ machines. Say Y here to build support for it into your kernel.
+ The alternative is to use your primary serial port as a console.
