-What is gxfb?
-=================
-
-This is a graphics framebuffer driver for AMD Geode GX2 based processors.
-
-Advantages:
-
- * No need to use AMD's VSA code (or other VESA emulation layer) in the
- BIOS.
- * It provides a nice large console (128 cols + 48 lines with 1024x768)
- without using tiny, unreadable fonts.
- * You can run XF68_FBDev on top of /dev/fb0
- * Most important: boot logo :-)
-
-Disadvantages:
-
- * graphic mode is slower than text mode...
-
-
-How to use it?
-==============
-
-Switching modes is done using gxfb.mode_option=<resolution>... boot
-parameter or using `fbset' program.
-
-See Documentation/fb/modedb.txt for more information on modedb
-resolutions.
-
-
-X11
-===
-
-XF68_FBDev should generally work fine, but it is non-accelerated.
-
-
-Configuration
-=============
-
-You can pass kernel command line options to gxfb with gxfb.<option>.
-For example, gxfb.mode_option=800x600@75.
-Accepted options:
-
-mode_option - specify the video mode. Of the form
- <x>x<y>[-<bpp>][@<refresh>]
-vram - size of video ram (normally auto-detected)
-vt_switch - enable vt switching during suspend/resume. The vt
- switch is slow, but harmless.
