 What is vesafb?
 ===============
 
-This is a generic driver for a graphic framebuffer on intel boxes.
+Vesafb is a generic framebuffer driver for x86 and x86_64 boxes.
 
-The idea is simple:  Turn on graphics mode at boot time with the help
-of the BIOS, and use this as framebuffer device /dev/fb0, like the m68k
-(and other) ports do.
-
-This means we decide at boot time whenever we want to run in text or
-graphics mode.  Switching mode later on (in protected mode) is
-impossible; BIOS calls work in real mode only.  VESA BIOS Extensions
-Version 2.0 are required, because we need a linear frame buffer.
+VESA BIOS Extensions Version 2.0 are required, because we need a linear
+frame buffer. VBE 3.0 is required if you want to use modes with a higher
+(than the standard 60Hz) refresh rate.
+
+The VESA framebuffer driver comes in two flavors - the standard vesafb 
+and vesafb-tng. Vesafb-tng is available only on 32-bit x86 due to the 
+technology it uses (vm86). Vesafb-tng has more features than vesafb
+(adjusting the refresh rate on VBE3.0-compliant boards, switching the 
+video mode without rebooting, selecting a mode by providing its 
+modedb name, and more) but might be unstable on some systems.

 How to use it?
 ==============
 
-Switching modes is done using the vga=... boot parameter.  Read
-Documentation/svga.txt for details.
-
-You should compile in both vgacon (for text mode) and vesafb (for
-graphics mode). Which of them takes over the console depends on
-whenever the specified mode is text or graphics.
-
-The graphic modes are NOT in the list which you get if you boot with
-vga=ask and hit return. The mode you wish to use is derived from the
-VESA mode number. Here are those VESA mode numbers:
+If you are running your system on hardware platform where vm86 is supported
+(this is 32-bit x86 only as of the time of writing this document) and you
+decide to use vesafb-tng, you can either the driver into the kernel or use it 
+as a module. The graphic mode you want to use is in both cases specified using 
+the standard modedb format.
+
+If your system doesn't support vm86 calls yet (all 64-bit platforms), things
+get a little more tricky. Since on such systems you can't do BIOS calls from
+protected mode in which kernel runs, you have to decide at boot time whenever
+you want to run in text or in graphics mode. Switching mode later on is
+impossible. Switching modes is done using the vga=... boot parameter.  Read
+Documentation/svga.txt for details. Below is a more detailed description of

 Refresh rates
 =============
 
-There is no way to change the vesafb video mode and/or timings after
-booting linux.  If you are not happy with the 60 Hz refresh rate, you
-have these options:
+With VBE3.0 compatible BIOSes and vesafb-tng it is possible to change

+Options accepted only by vesafb-tng:
+
+<mode>	The mode you want to set, in the standard modedb format. Refer to
+	modedb.txt for detailed description. If you specify a mode that is
+	not supported by your board's BIOS, vesafb will attempt to set a
+	similar mode. The list of supported modes can be found in
+	/proc/fbx/modes, where x is the framebuffer number (usually 0).
+	When vesafb is compiled as a module, the mode string should be
+	provided as a value of the parameter 'mode'.
+
+vbemode:x
+	Force the use of VBE mode x. The mode will only be set if it's
+	found in VBE-provided list of supported modes.
+	NOTE: The mode number 'x' should be specified in VESA mode number
+	notation, not the Linux kernel one (ie. 257 instead of 769).
+	HINT: If you use this option because normal <mode> parameter does
+	not work for you and you use a X server, you'll probably want to 
+	set the 'nocrtc' option to ensure that the video mode is properly 
+	restored after console <-> X switches.
+
+nocrtc	Do not use CRTC timings while setting the graphic mode. This option 
+	makes sence only with VBE3.0 compliant systems. Use it if you have 
+	problems with the modes set in the standard way. Note that specifying
+	this option means the refresh rate will be ignored and will stay at 
+	your BIOS' default (60 Hz).
+
+noedid 	Do not try to fetch and use EDID-provided modes.
+
+gtf	Force the use of VESA's GTF (Generalized Timing Formula). Specifying
+	this will cause vesafb to skip it's internal modedb and EDID-modedb
+	and jump straight to the GTF part of the code (normally used only is
+	everything else failed). This can be useful if you want to get as much
+	as possible from you graphics board but your BIOS doesn't support
+	modes with refresh rates you require. Note that you may need to
+	specify the maxhf, maxvf and maxclk parameters if they are not
+	provided by EDID.
+
+Additionally, the following parameters may be provided. They all override the
+EDID-provided values and BIOS defaults. Refer to you monitor's specs to get
+the correct values for maxhf, maxvf and maxclk for your hardware.
+
+maxhf:n		Maximum horizontal frequency (in kHz). 
+maxvf:n		Maximum vertical frequency (in Hz).
+maxclk:n	Maximum pixel clock (in MHz).

+Vesafb-tng Technical details
+============================
+
+1. The driver architecture.
+
+The driver's code is stored in 3 files:
+  /drivers/video/vesafb-tng.c
+  /drivers/video/vesafb-thread.c
+  /include/video/vesa.h
+  
+vesafb-tng.c contains the main code. vesafb-thread.c contains code for the 
+vesafb service thread. A separate thread is necessary because we need to remap 
+memory in order to be able to use the vm86 calls. The service thread is started
+regardless of whether vesafb is compiled into the kernel or compiled as a
+module. This is necessary because of the active_mm stuff, better described in
+the header of vesafb-thread.c.
+
+2. The driver initialization
+
+ o vesafb_vbe_init
+   - get basic info about the graphics BIOS
+   - fetch data about all modes supported by VBE
+   - get info about the protected mode interface 
+   - get EDID data and attempt to create an EDID modedb
+
+ o vesafb_probe
+   - get service thread's PID (started earlier from fbmem.c)
+   - call vesafb_vbe_init
+   - find a matching VBE mode
+   - try to find the specified mode in vesa_modes modedb
+   - try to find the specified mode in the EDID modedb
+   - try to calculate timings with the GTF
+   - low level setup - request_mem_region, ioremap, etc.
+   - setup /proc/fb<x>/modes and /proc/fb<x>/vbe_info
