Having FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE_DEFERRED_TAKEOVER with fbdev+fbcon being build as a module does not make much sense. Having FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE_DEFERRED_TAKEOVER only when fbdev+fbcon are builtin was always the intention, hence the =y checks but they were checking the wrong option, fbcon is build as part of fb.ko, so we must check for FB=y.

Saying Y here will allow you to use Linux in text mode through a

|
display that complies with the generic VGA standard. Virtually
|
|
everyone wants that.
|
|
|
|
The program SVGATextMode can be used to utilize SVGA video cards to
|
|
their full potential in text mode. Download it from
|
|
<ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/utils/console/>.

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

help
|
|
Say Y here if the scrollback history should persist by default when
|
|
switching between consoles. Otherwise, the scrollback history will be
|
|
flushed each time the console is switched. This feature can also be
|
|
enabled using the boot command line parameter
|
|
'vgacon.scrollback_persistent=1'.
|
|
|
|
This feature might break your tool of choice to flush the scrollback
|
|
buffer, e.g. clear(1) will work fine but Debian's clear_console(1)
|
|
will be broken, which might cause security issues.
|
|
You can use the escape sequence \e[3J instead if this feature is
|
|
activated.
|
|
|
|
Note that a buffer of VGACON_SOFT_SCROLLBACK_SIZE is taken for each
|
|
created tty device.
|
|
So if you use a RAM-constrained system, say N here.

Say Y here if you have an old MDA or monochrome Hercules graphics
|

adapter in your system acting as a second head ( = video card). You
|
|
will then be able to use two monitors with your Linux system. Do not
|
|
say Y here if your MDA card is the primary card in your system; the

normal VGA driver will handle it.

To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the

module will be called mdacon.

If unsure, say N.

If this option is selected, the framebuffer console will

Enable display rotation for the framebuffer console. This is done

If enabled this defers the framebuffer console taking over the

console from the dummy console until the first text is displayed on

the console. This is useful in combination with the "quiet" kernel

commandline option to keep the framebuffer contents initially put up

black screen as soon as fbcon loads.

The alternative is to use your primary serial port as a console.
