Dear Viktor,

I'm working on one project about bios emulator and I notice that this driver is linked for boards P1022DS and sequoia too, but they don't really use any methods of it. It's safe to remove this support from configs files?
Are you sure that the code is not used?
sequoia:
#define CONFIG_BIOSEMU /* x86 bios emulator for vga bios */ #define CONFIG_ATI_RADEON_FB /* use radeon framebuffer driver */ ...
P1022DS:
#define CONFIG_BIOSEMU ... #define CONFIG_ATI_RADEON_FB
These boards enable the BIOS emulator to initialize the BIOS on ATI Radeon graphics cards; CONFIG_ATI_RADEON_FB causes that ati_radeon_fb ("drivers/video/ati_radeon_fb.c") gets included; this code calls (among other things) BootVideoCardBIOS() ...
Whole this driver is seems to be imported from somewhere and lots of its code is unused Actually only one method is used. It's safe to clean this too?
If you disable all the graphics code, yes.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
