Wacky.

There are a *few* options listed in
/usr/src/your_kernel_version/Documentation/vesafb.txt.  The options are
very limited and do not include things such as boot logo.  Primarily
they are resolution, ypan, ywrap, redraw, vgapal, pmipal, mtrr, and
vram.  There is nothing there for the end user.  There are some options
for specific hardware that are in various files in the above directory,
but I believe you are using the vesafb module.  If so, I listed above
the options that are available.  What sort of options are you seeking?
