This driver supports graphics boards with the nVidia chips, TNT
and newer. For very old chipsets, such as the RIVA128, then use
the rivafb.
Say Y if you have such a graphics board.
This driver supports graphics boards with the nVidia chips, from TNT
through early GeForce generations (NV4–NV2x: Twintor, Twintor2, Celsius,
Kelvin).
Later architectures (Rankine and newer) are not reliably supported.
For very old chipsets, such as the RIVA128, use rivafb.
If unsure, say N.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
module will be called nvidiafb.
