Historically, x86 used the VESA BIOS + Extensions and EFI-framebuffers for this, which are mostly limited + to x86. + This option, if enabled, marks VGA/VBE/EFI framebuffers as generic + framebuffers so the new generic system-framebuffer drivers can be + used on x86.

You are highly encouraged to enable simplefb as + replacement if you select this option. simplefb can correctly deal + with generic system framebuffers.
