Ok.

The problem is that if I do not setup the dependency here the menu entry
will not be available at the proper level. In fact I will see the Atmel
LCD entry here:
"Graphics support"
 <*> Support for frame buffer devices  --->
 <*> AT91/AT32 LCD Controller support

instead of here:
"Graphics support"
 ---> "Support for frame buffer devices"
      [..]
      <*> "AT91/AT32 LCD Controller support"
      [..]

So I keep the depend.

Ok, changed to HAVE_FB_ATMEL indeed.

Thanks. Best regards,
