Okay, let's find a consens. Nvidia was just an example for cards that
AFAIK never need the UseFBDev option. I just want to prevent the users
from making the wrong choice. And we don't want to bother the user with
question if the answer is obvious (to 95 percent).
So again, proposing the scheme:
if /proc mounted:
if /proc/fb exists:
if(driver-listed-there matches choosen video card):
preset use_fbdev to true
preset priority to low
else
preset use_fbdev to false
preset priority to medium
fi
else
preset use_fbdev to false
preset priority to low
fi
else
preset use_fbdev to false
preset priority to medium
fi
