| 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/>. |
| |

| ---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. |

| config MDA_CONSOLE |

| ---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. |

| help |
| Say Y here if you would like to use fonts other than the default |
| your frame buffer console usually use. |
| |
| Note that the answer to this question won't directly affect the |
| kernel: saying N will just cause the configurator to skip all |
| the questions about foreign fonts. |

| If unsure, say N (the default choices are safe). |
