Update Kconfig for Permedia 2, Trident and
3Dfx frame buffer drivers.
Signed-off-by: Krzysztof Helt <krzysztof.h1@wp.pl>
---
These are drivers I has been involved in testing or
changing.
It would be nice to have this updated description
in 2.6.27 kernel as the patch can hardly produce any
regression.
