This reverts commit b47d77360cb428d8892beb93789c83dfa681b26f.
There is no basis on the claims about 32MB minimum video memory for screen
rotation. The other changes that reorganize some options under Common options
can be redone in a proper atomic change of that purpose.

-Q: Why doesn't screen rotation work?

-A: Make sure that at least 32MB of memory is reserved for video operation
- (check the BIOS settings), otherwise rotation will fail and display an

Q: Why doesn't this GEODE driver work at WXGA (wide screen) resolutions?
