+config FIRMWARE_EDID
+ bool "Enable firmware EDID"
+ depends on FB
+ help
+ This enables access to the EDID transferred from the firmware.
+ On the i386, this is from the Video BIOS. Enable this if DDC/I2C
+ transfers do not work for your driver and if you are using
+ nvidiafb, i810fb or savagefb.
+
+ In general, choosing Y for this option is safe. If you
+ experience extremely long delays while booting before you get
+ something on your display, try setting this to N. Matrox cards in
+ combination with certain motherboards and monitors are known to
+ suffer from this problem.

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

+ so it's safe to say "n" here.

+ bool "Enable Video Mode Handling Helpers"
+ depends on FB
+ help
+ This enables functions for handling video modes using the
+ Generalized Timing Formula and the EDID parser. A few drivers rely
+ on this feature such as the radeonfb, rivafb, and the i810fb. If
+ your driver does not take advantage of this feature, choosing Y will
+ just increase the kernel size by about 5K.
+
+config FB_TILEBLITTING
+ bool "Enable Tile Blitting Support"
+ depends on FB
+ help
+ This enables tile blitting. Tile blitting is a drawing technique
+ where the screen is divided into rectangular sections (tiles), whereas
+ the standard blitting divides the screen into pixels. Because the
+ default drawing element is a tile, drawing functions will be passed
+ parameters in terms of number of tiles instead of number of pixels.
+ For example, to draw a single character, instead of using bitmaps,
+ an index to an array of bitmaps will be used. To clear or move a
+ rectangular section of a screen, the rectangle will be described in
+ terms of number of tiles in the x- and y-axis.
+
+ This is particularly important to one driver, matroxfb. If
+ unsure, say N.
