Hi. I am putting together a tiny kernel for an embedded x86 target. Space is tight, so I try to shave every kB I can get rid of. I don't have anything resembling VGA or graphics, and my .config reflects that. (Serial console.) Yet, when building the kernel I see: LZMA arch/x86/boot/compressed/vmlinux.bin.lzma CC arch/x86/boot/video.o CC arch/x86/boot/video-mode.o CC arch/x86/boot/version.o CC arch/x86/boot/video-vga.o CC arch/x86/boot/video-vesa.o CC arch/x86/boot/video-bios.o # strings arch/x86/boot/bzImage | egrep -i 'vesa|vga|bios|mode' +VESA 0123456789ABCDEFPress <ENTER> to see video modes available, <SPACE> to continue, or wait 30 sec Mode: Resolution: Type: Enter a video mode or "scan" to scan for additional modes: Undefined video mode number: %x VESA BIOS The video* objects sums up to 87kB. Can I get rid of that somehow? I am using current git. This is my .config: http://tapas.homeip.net/~dagb/tiny.config Cc: is appreciated.
