Using a specific Framebuffer #595

Hi! Is it possible to force emulationstation to use a specific framebuffer in Linux? (/dev/fb1) Currently, I copy everything from /dev/fb0, which is a bit slow. Using Raspberry Pi Zero and an SPI Display.

From what I know Emulation Station uses OpenGL and OpenGL draws to /dev/fb0. It's less a thing with Emulation Station and more OpenGL.
