+"video-mode" environment variable
+===============================
+
+The 'video-mode' environment variable can be used to enable and configure
+some video drivers. The format matches the video= command-line option used
+for Linux:
+
+ video-mode=<driver>:<xres>x<yres>-<depth>@<freq><,option=string>
+
+ <driver> The video driver name, ignored by U-Boot
+ <xres> The X resolution (in pixels) to use.
+ <yres> The Y resolution (in pixels) to use.
+ <depth> The color depth (in bits) to use.
+ <freq> The frequency (in Hz) to use.
+ <options> A comma-separated list of device-specific options
+
+Example: video-mode=fslfb:1280x1024-32@60,monitor=dvi
