+config VGACON_SOFT_SCROLLBACK
+ bool "Enable Scrollback Buffer in System RAM"
+ depends on VGA_CONSOLE
+ default n
+ 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 intialization.
+ 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
+ Enter the amount of System RAM to allocate for the scrollback
+ buffer. Each 64KB will give you approximately 16 80x25
+ screenfuls of scrollback buffer
