Randy Dunlap 0cf9bb67f5 documentation/svga.txt: update outdated file
Drop CONFIG_VIDEO_400_HACK info completely.
Drop CONFIG_VIDEO_RETAIN and CONFIG_VIDEO_LOCAL completely.
Drop CONFIG_VIDEO_COMPACT and CONFIG_VIDEO_VESA info completely.
Drop CONFIG_VIDEO_SVGA info since it has been removed.
Drop chapter number & section number references since they are wrong.
Drop (bad) ftp URL for 800x600 Thinkpad XF86Config.

Rename CONFIG_VIDEO_GFX_HACK to VIDEO_GFX_HACK since it is not a
Kconfig symbol. And to match the source code.

Build options are controlled by the kernel kconfig utility.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
