Date: Thu, 17 Sep 2020 10:38:13 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <e5187e70faf8237825a142313802983a6c214baa.1600333774.git.unixbhaskar@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1600333774.git.unixbhaskar@gmail.com>

framebuffer scrollback mode was removed, but the documentation was not
updated. Properly update the documentation by removing the option that
is no longer pressent, and removed the particular scrollback option.
