-          This enables support for text mode selection on kernel startup. If
-          you want to take advantage of some high-resolution text mode your
-          card's BIOS offers, but the traditional Linux utilities like
-          SVGATextMode don't, you can say Y here and set the mode using the
-          "vga=" option from your boot loader (lilo or loadlin) or set
-          "vga=ask" which brings up a video mode menu on kernel startup. (Try
-          "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot loader about
-          how to pass options to the kernel.)

-          Read the file <file:Documentation/svga.txt> for more information
-          about the Video mode selection support. If unsure, say N.
