I've got a comment I meant to make earlier about the font used for the menus that your kernel shows.

I notice that you make the menu font dim for the prompts and the current option bold [normal brightness in the day].
This makes it hard to read these options when in the car in daytime.

My suggestion was to invert the font used for the current option selected and leave the prompt text not inverted but normal brightness [i.e. don't use dim/bold use normal/reverse text].

I'm not sure how easy it is to do this -if you do the bit map rendering onto the display yourself then presumably all you do is invert the meaning of the fonts bits for the current setting to make it reverse video text.

Thats my suggestion - it may look terrible I don't really know.

Then again it may look great.

any comments?
