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 Include the soft_cursor function for generic software cursor support.
74 This is used by drivers that don't provide their own (accelerated)
82 config FB_MODE_HELPERS
83 bool "Enable Video Mode Handling Helpers"
87 This enables functions for handling video modes using the
88 Generalized Timing Formula and the EDID parser. A few drivers rely
89 on this feature such as the radeonfb, rivafb, and the i810fb. If
90 your driver does not take advantage of this feature, choosing Y will
91 just increase the kernel size by about 5K.
93 config FB_TILEBLITTING
94 bool "Enable Tile Blitting Support"
98 This enables tile blitting. Tile blitting is a drawing technique
99 where the screen is divided into rectangular sections (tiles), whereas
100 the standard blitting divides the screen into pixels. Because the
101 default drawing element is a tile, drawing functions will be passed
102 parameters in terms of number of tiles instead of number of pixels.
103 For example, to draw a single character, instead of using bitmaps,
104 an index to an array of bitmaps will be used. To clear or move a
105 rectangular section of a screen, the rectangle will be described in
106 terms of number of tiles in the x- and y-axis.
108 This is particularly important to one driver, matroxfb. If

719 and vertical resolutions, and vertical refresh rates without having
720 to specify your own timing parameters. This is especially useful
721 to maximize the performance of an aging display, or if you just
722 have a display with nonstandard dimensions. A VESA compliant
723 monitor is recommended, but can still work with non-compliant ones.

815 are supported without additional modules.
817 The driver starts in monitor mode. You must use the matroxset tool

819 swap primary and secondary head outputs, or to change output mode.
820 Secondary head driver always start in 640x480 resolution and you

823 Do not forget that second head supports only 16 and 32 bpp
824 packed pixels, so it is a good idea to compile them into the kernel
825 too. You can use only some font widths, as the driver uses generic

859 3.9.17 preview you can use both heads if you use SVGA over fbdev or
860 the fbdev driver on first head and the fbdev driver on second head.
862 If you compile it as module, two modules are created,
863 matroxfb_crtc2 and matroxfb_maven. Matroxfb_maven is needed for
864 both G200 and G400, matroxfb_crtc2 is needed only by G400. You must
865 also load i2c-matroxfb to get it to run.
867 The driver starts in monitor mode and you must use the matroxset

887 the driver compiled with Y is larger and a bit slower, especially on

892 insert several instances of the module matroxfb into the kernel
893 with insmod, supplying the parameter "dev=N" where N is 0, 1, etc.
894 for the different Matrox devices. This method is slightly faster but
895 uses 40 KB of kernel memory per Matrox card.

1425 Frame buffer driver for the w100 as found on the Sharp SL-Cxx series.
1427 This driver is also available as a module ( = code which can be
1428 inserted and removed from the running kernel whenever you want). The
1429 module will be called vfb. If you want to compile it as a module,
1430 say M here and read <file:Documentation/modules.txt>.

1435 bool "PXA LCD command line parameters"
1439 Enable the use of kernel command line or module parameters
1440 to configure the physical properties of the LCD panel when
1441 using the PXA LCD driver.
1443 This option allows you to override the panel parameters
1444 supplied by the platform in order to support multiple
1445 different models of flatpanel. If you will only be using a
1446 single model of flatpanel then you can safely leave this
1449 <file:Documentation/fb/pxafb.txt> describes the available parameters.

1471 This is a `virtual' frame buffer device. It operates on a chunk of
1472 unswappable kernel memory instead of on the memory of a graphics
1473 board. This means you cannot see any output sent to this frame
1474 buffer device, while it does consume precious memory. The main use
1475 of this frame buffer device is testing and debugging the frame
1476 buffer subsystem. Do NOT enable it for normal systems! To protect
1477 the innocent, it has to be enabled explicitly at boot time using the
1478 kernel option `video=vfb:'.
1480 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
1481 module will be called vfb.
