I am also surprised !!!!

I again tried, but in console drivers I get only the following two options
:

- VGA Text Console
- Video Mode Selection Support

No framebuffer option. I have selected both the above options and as a
result I get 80x34 console (VGA=5). No tux :-)

I tried to search in .config for CONFIG_FB. There is no line like that in
my .config :-)

Regards
