Virtually 17 everyone wants that. 18 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/>. 22 23 Say Y. 24 25config VGACON_SOFT_SCROLLBACK 26 bool "Enable Scrollback Buffer in System RAM" 27 depends on VGA_CONSOLE 28 default n 29 help 30 The scrollback buffer of the standard VGA console is located in 31 the VGA RAM. The size of this RAM is fixed and is quite small. 32 If you require a larger scrollback buffer, this can be placed in 33 System RAM which is dynamically allocated during initialization. 34 Placing the scrollback buffer in System RAM will slightly slow 35 down the console. 36 37 If you want this feature, say 'Y' here and enter the amount of 38 RAM to allocate for this buffer. If unsure, say 'N'. 39 40config VGACON_SOFT_SCROLLBACK_SIZE 41 int "Scrollback Buffer Size (in KB)" 42 depends on VGACON_SOFT_SCROLLBACK 43 range 1 1024 44 default "64" 45 help 46 Enter the amount of System RAM to allocate for the scrollback 47 buffer.

You 56 will then be able to use two monitors with your Linux system. Do not 57 say Y here if your MDA card is the primary card in your system; the 58 normal VGA driver will handle it. 59 60 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the 61 module will be called mdacon. 62 63 If unsure, say N. 64 65config SGI_NEWPORT_CONSOLE 66 tristate "SGI Newport Console support" 67 depends on SGI_IP22 68 select FONT_SUPPORT 69 help 70 Say Y here if you want the console on the Newport aka XL graphics 71 card of your Indy.

Otherwise, the framebuffer console will 115 always select the first framebuffer driver that is loaded. The latter 116 is the default behavior. 117 118 You can always override the automatic selection of the primary device 119 by using the fbcon=map: boot option. 120 121 If unsure, select n. 122 123config FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE_ROTATION 124 bool "Framebuffer Console Rotation" 125 depends on FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE 126 help 127 Enable display rotation for the framebuffer console. This is done 128 in software and may be significantly slower than a normally oriented 129 display. Note that the rotation is done at the console level only 130 such that other users of the framebuffer will remain normally 131 oriented. 132 133config STI_CONSOLE 134 bool "STI text console" 135 depends on PARISC 136 select FONT_SUPPORT 137 default y 138 help 139 The STI console is the builtin display/keyboard on HP-PARISC 140 machines. Say Y here to build support for it into your kernel. 141 The alternative is to use your primary serial port as a console. 142 143endmenu 144 145
