  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/>.

  27          The scrollback buffer of the standard VGA console is located in
  28          the VGA RAM.  The size of this RAM is fixed and is quite small.
  29          If you require a larger scrollback buffer, this can be placed in
  30          System RAM which is dynamically allocated during initialization.
  31          Placing the scrollback buffer in System RAM will slightly slow
  32          down the console.
  33
  34          If you want this feature, say 'Y' here and enter the amount of
  35          RAM to allocate for this buffer.  If unsure, say 'N'.

  51           Say Y here if you have an old MDA or monochrome Hercules graphics
  52           adapter in your system acting as a second head ( = video card). You
  53           will then be able to use two monitors with your Linux system. Do not
  54           say Y here if your MDA card is the primary card in your system; the
  55           normal VGA driver will handle it.
  56
  57           To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
  58           module will be called mdacon.
  59
  60           If unsure, say N.

 104          If this option is selected, the framebuffer console will
 105          automatically select the primary display device (if the architecture
 106          supports this feature).  Otherwise, the framebuffer console will
 107          always select the first framebuffer driver that is loaded. The latter
 108          is the default behavior.
 109
 110          You can always override the automatic selection of the primary device
 111          by using the fbcon=map: boot option.

 119          Enable display rotation for the framebuffer console.  This is done
 120          in software and may be significantly slower than a normally oriented
 121          display.  Note that the rotation is done at the console level only
 122          such that other users of the framebuffer will remain normally
 123          oriented.

 139           your frame buffer console usually use.
 140
 141           Note that the answer to this question won't directly affect the
 142           kernel: saying N will just cause the configurator to skip all
 143           the questions about foreign fonts.

 154
 155           Note that this is a poor quality font. The VGA 8x16 font is quite a
 156           lot more readable.
