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_FIRMWARE_EDID
74 bool "Enable firmware EDID"
78 This enables access to the EDID transferred from the firmware.
79 On the i386, this is from the Video BIOS. Enable this if DDC/I2C
80 transfers do not work for your driver and if you are using
81 nvidiafb, i810fb or savagefb.
83 In general, choosing Y for this option is safe. If you
84 experience extremely long delays while booting before you get
85 something on your display, try setting this to N. Matrox cards in
86 combination with certain motherboards and monitors are known to
87 suffer from this problem.
89 config FB_MODE_HELPERS
90 bool "Enable Video Mode Handling Helpers"
94 This enables functions for handling video modes using the
95 Generalized Timing Formula and the EDID parser. A few drivers rely
96 on this feature such as the radeonfb, rivafb, and the i810fb. If
97 your driver does not take advantage of this feature, choosing Y will
98 just increase the kernel size by about 5K.
100 config FB_TILEBLITTING
101 bool "Enable Tile Blitting Support"
105 This enables tile blitting. Tile blitting is a drawing technique
106 where the screen is divided into rectangular sections (tiles), whereas
107 the standard blitting divides the screen into pixels. Because the
108 default drawing element is a tile, drawing functions will be passed
109 parameters in terms of number of tiles instead of number of pixels.
110 For example, to draw a single character, instead of using bitmaps,
111 an index to an array of bitmaps will be used. To clear or move a
112 rectangular section of a screen, the rectangle will be described in
113 terms of number of tiles in the x- and y-axis.
115 This is particularly important to one driver, matroxfb. If

713 bool "use VESA Generalized Timing Formula"
716 If you say Y, then the VESA standard, Generalized Timing Formula
717 or GTF, will be used to calculate the required video timing values
718 per video mode. Since the GTF allows nondiscrete timings
719 (nondiscrete being a range of values as opposed to discrete being a
720 set of values), you'll be able to use any combination of horizontal
721 and vertical resolutions, and vertical refresh rates without having
722 to specify your own timing parameters. This is especially useful
723 to maximize the performance of an aging display, or if you just
724 have a display with nonstandard dimensions. A VESA compliant
725 monitor is recommended, but can still work with non-compliant ones.
726 If you need or want this, then select this option. The timings may
727 not be compliant with Intel's recommended values. Use at your own

826 swap primary and secondary head outputs, or to change output mode.

866 3.9.17 preview you can use both heads if you use SVGA over fbdev or
867 the fbdev driver on first head and the fbdev driver on second head.
869 If you compile it as module, two modules are created,
870 matroxfb_crtc2 and matroxfb_maven. Matroxfb_maven is needed for
871 both G200 and G400, matroxfb_crtc2 is needed only by G400. You must
872 also load i2c-matroxfb to get it to run.

1412 This driver is also available as a module ( = code which can be
1413 inserted and removed from the running kernel whenever you want). The
1414 module will be called w100fb. If you want to compile it as a module,
1415 say M here and read <file:Documentation/modules.txt>.

1449 This is a `virtual' frame buffer device. It operates on a chunk of
1450 unswappable kernel memory instead of on the memory of a graphics
1451 board. This means you cannot see any output sent to this frame
1452 buffer device, while it does consume precious memory. The main use
1453 of this frame buffer device is testing and debugging the frame
1454 buffer subsystem. Do NOT enable it for normal systems! To protect
1455 the innocent, it has to be enabled explicitly at boot time using the
1456 kernel option `video=vfb:'.
1458 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
1459 module will be called vfb.
