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

32 | ---help--- |
33 | This enables support for text mode selection on kernel startup. If | |
34 | you want to take advantage of some high-resolution text mode your | |
35 | card's BIOS offers, but the traditional Linux utilities like | |
36 | SVGATextMode don't, you can say Y here and set the mode using the | |
37 | "vga=" option from your boot loader (lilo or loadlin) or set | |
38 | "vga=ask" which brings up a video mode menu on kernel startup. (Try | |
39 | "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot loader about | |
40 | how to pass options to the kernel.) | |
41 | ||
42 | Read the file <file:Documentation/svga.txt> for more information | |
43 | about the Video mode selection support. If unsure, say N. | |

48 | ---help--- | |
49 | Say Y here if you have an old MDA or monochrome Hercules graphics | |
50 | adapter in your system acting as a second head ( = video card). You | |
51 | will then be able to use two monitors with your Linux system. Do not | |
52 | say Y here if your MDA card is the primary card in your system; the | |
53 | normal VGA driver will handle it. | |
54 | ||
55 | To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the | |
