Linux Frame Buffer (fb0) missing #46

Closed MfaizR closed 1 year ago

MfaizR commented 1 year ago

Hi, Can i enable the linux frame buffer (fb) together with the OpenGL? Setting already done but I cant see the device in /dev. please advise. Thanks

Could you clarify what your final goal is? What graphics library do you want to use?

Hi Thomas, I am trying to put psplash output to the fb0, since that is the psplash default output correct? I understand that it can be redirected to GPU but could not make it work. any advise?

buildroot has a build-in boot-image feature afaik. (have seen a menu entry for that)

Hi @mstaack , I never see any of that besides psplash, care to clarify further? i am looking for the psplash-drm source code, which I believe is for the OpenGL usage. Thanks
