CONFIG_FB_UVESA: Userspace VESA VGA graphics support

General informations

The Linux kernel configuration item CONFIG_FB_UVESA has multiple definitions:

Userspace VESA VGA graphics support found in drivers/video/fbdev/Kconfig

The configuration item CONFIG_FB_UVESA:

• prompt: Userspace VESA VGA graphics support
• type: tristate
• depends on: ( CONFIG_FB && CONFIG_CONNECTOR ) && (! CONFIG_UML )
• defined in drivers/video/fbdev/Kconfig
• found in Linux kernels: 3.15–3.19, 4.0–4.20, 5.0–5.19, 6.0–6.12
• modules built: uvesafb, uvesafb

Help text

This is the frame buffer driver for generic VBE 2.0 compliant graphic cards. It can also take advantage of VBE 3.0 features, such as refresh rate adjustment.

This driver generally provides more features than vesafb but requires a userspace helper application called 'v86d'. See Documentation/fb/uvesafb.rst for more information.

If unsure, say N.
