18 Say Y here if you want the legacy /dev/fb* device file and
19 interfaces within sysfs and procfs. It is only required if you
20 have userspace programs that depend on fbdev for graphics output.
21 This does not affect the framebuffer console. If unsure, say N.

104 This menu will let you enable support for the framebuffers with
105 non-native endianness (e.g. Little-Endian framebuffer on a
106 Big-Endian machine). Most probably you don't have such hardware,
107 so it's safe to say "n" here.

186 This enables functions for handling video modes using the
187 Generalized Timing Formula and the EDID parser. A few drivers rely
188 on this feature such as the radeonfb, rivafb, and the i810fb. If
189 your driver does not take advantage of this feature, choosing Y will
190 just increase the kernel size by about 5K.

192config FB_TILEBLITTING
193 bool "Enable Tile Blitting Support"
194 depends on FB
195 help
196 This enables tile blitting. Tile blitting is a drawing technique
197 where the screen is divided into rectangular sections (tiles), whereas
198 the standard blitting divides the screen into pixels. Because the
199 default drawing element is a tile, drawing functions will be passed
200 parameters in terms of number of tiles instead of number of pixels.
201 For example, to draw a single character, instead of using bitmaps,
202 an index to an array of bitmaps will be used. To clear or move a
203 rectangular section of a screen, the rectangle will be described in
204 terms of number of tiles in the x- and y-axis.

206 This is particularly important to one driver, matroxfb. If
207 unsure, say N.
