5 menu "Graphics support"
8 tristate "Support for frame buffer devices"
10 The frame buffer device provides an abstraction for the graphics
11 hardware. It represents the frame buffer of some video hardware and
12 allows application software to access the graphics hardware through
13 a well-defined interface, so the software doesn't need to know
14 anything about the low-level (hardware register) stuff.
16 Frame buffer devices work identically across the different
17 architectures supported by Linux and make the implementation of
18 application programs easier and more portable; at this point, an X
19 server exists which uses the frame buffer device exclusively.
20 On several non-X86 architectures, the frame buffer device is the
21 only way to use the graphics hardware.
23 The device is accessed through special device nodes, usually located
24 in the /dev directory, i.e. /dev/fb*.
26 You need an utility program called fbset to make full use of frame
27 buffer devices. Please read <file:Documentation/fb/framebuffer.txt>
28 and the Framebuffer-HOWTO at
29 <http://www.tahallah.demon.co.uk/programming/prog.html> for more
32 Say Y here and to the driver for your graphics board below if you
33 are compiling a kernel for a non-x86 architecture.
35 If you are compiling for the x86 architecture, you can say Y if you
36 want to play with it, but it is not essential. Please note that
37 running graphical applications that directly touch the hardware
38 (e.g. an accelerated X server) and that are not frame buffer
39 device-aware may cause unexpected results. If unsure, say N.
41 config FB_CFB_FILLRECT
46 Include the cfb_fillrect function for generic software rectangle
47 filling. This is used by drivers that don't provide their own
48 (accelerated) version.
50 config FB_CFB_COPYAREA
55 Include the cfb_copyarea function for generic software area copying.
56 This is used by drivers that don't provide their own (accelerated)
59 config FB_CFB_IMAGEBLIT
64 Include the cfb_imageblit function for generic software image
65 blitting. This is used by drivers that don't provide their own
66 (accelerated) version.
73 config FB_MODE_HELPERS
74 bool "Enable Video Mode Handling Helpers"
78 This enables functions for handling video modes using the
79 Generalized Timing Formula and the EDID parser. A few drivers rely
80 on this feature such as the radeonfb, rivafb, and the i810fb. If
81 your driver does not take advantage of this feature, choosing Y will
82 just increase the kernel size by about 5K.
84 config FB_TILEBLITTING
85 bool "Enable Tile Blitting Support"
89 This enables tile blitting. Tile blitting is a drawing technique
90 where the screen is divided into rectangular sections (tiles), whereas
91 the standard blitting divides the screen into pixels. Because the
92 default drawing element is a tile, drawing functions will be passed
93 parameters in terms of number of tiles instead of number of pixels.
94 For example, to draw a single character, instead of using bitmaps,
95 an index to an array of bitmaps will be used. To clear or move a
96 rectangular section of a screen, the rectangle will be described in
97 terms of number of tiles in the x- and y-axis.
99 This is particularly important to one driver, matroxfb. If

727 bool "use VESA Generalized Timing Formula"
730 If you say Y, then the VESA standard, Generalized Timing Formula
731 or GTF, will be used to calculate the required video timing values
732 per video mode. Since the GTF allows nondiscrete timings
733 (nondiscrete being a range of values as opposed to discrete being a
734 set of values), you'll be able to use any combination of horizontal
735 and vertical resolutions, and vertical refresh rates without having
736 to specify your own timing parameters. This is especially useful
737 to maximize the performance of an aging display, or if you just
738 have a display with nonstandard dimensions. A VESA compliant
739 monitor is recommended, but can still work with non-compliant ones.

834 "Matrox I2C support" and "G400 second head support" here in the
835 framebuffer section. G450/G550 secondary head and digital output
836 are supported without additional modules.
838 The driver starts in monitor mode. You must use the matroxset tool
839 (available at <ftp://platan.vc.cvut.cz/pub/linux/matrox-latest/>) to
840 swap primary and secondary head outputs, or to change output mode.
841 Secondary head driver always start in 640x480 resolution and you
842 must use fbset to change it.
844 Do not forget that second head supports only 16 and 32 bpp
845 packed pixels, so it is a good idea to compile them into the kernel
846 too. You can use only some font widths, as the driver uses generic
847 painting procedures (the secondary head does not use acceleration

876 Say Y or M here if you want to use a secondary head (meaning two
877 monitors in parallel) on G400 or MGA-TVO add-on on G200. Secondary
878 head is not compatible with accelerated XFree 3.3.x SVGA servers -
879 secondary head output is blanked while you are in X. With XFree
880 3.9.17 preview you can use both heads if you use SVGA over fbdev or
881 the fbdev driver on first head and the fbdev driver on second head.
883 If you compile it as module, two modules are created,
884 matroxfb_crtc2 and matroxfb_maven. Matroxfb_maven is needed for
885 both G200 and G400, matroxfb_crtc2 is needed only by G400. You must
886 also load i2c-matroxfb to get it to run.
888 The driver starts in monitor mode and you must use the matroxset
890 <ftp://platan.vc.cvut.cz/pub/linux/matrox-latest/>) to switch it to
891 PAL or NTSC or to swap primary and secondary head outputs.
892 Secondary head driver also always start in 640x480 resolution, you
893 must use fbset to change it.
895 Also do not forget that second head supports only 16 and 32 bpp

905 Say Y here if you have more than one (supported) Matrox device in
906 your computer and you want to use all of them for different monitors
907 ("multihead"). If you have only one device, you should say N because
908 the driver compiled with Y is larger and a bit slower, especially on

913 insert several instances of the module matroxfb into the kernel
914 with insmod, supplying the parameter "dev=N" where N is 0, 1, etc.
915 for the different Matrox devices. This method is slightly faster but
916 uses 40 KB of kernel memory per Matrox card.
918 There is no need for enabling 'Matrox multihead support' if you have
919 only one Matrox card in the box.

1420 Enable the use of kernel command line or module parameters
1421 to configure the physical properties of the LCD panel when
1422 using the PXA LCD driver.
1424 This option allows you to override the panel parameters
1425 supplied by the platform in order to support multiple
1426 different models of flatpanel. If you will only be using a
1427 single model of flatpanel then you can safely leave this

1478 This is a `virtual' frame buffer device. It operates on a chunk of
1479 unswappable kernel memory instead of on the memory of a graphics
1480 board. This means you cannot see any output sent to this frame
1481 buffer device, while it does consume precious memory. The main use
1482 of this frame buffer device is testing and debugging the frame
1483 buffer subsystem. Do NOT enable it for normal systems! To protect
1484 the innocent, it has to be enabled explicitly at boot time using the
1485 kernel option `video=vfb:'.
1487 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
1488 module will be called vfb.
