Hi. I’m trying to use SDL with the framebuffer console, using the vesafb drivers. I’m able to see the little penguin logo when booting, so I’m assuming I’m doing it right.
Now, when trying to initialize SDL, can’t find any available video device.
Why’s that?
Regards,
Carlos
two problems 1> you MUST be root - since it tries to open the base root tty to switch screens. 2> if you try and set a mode like say 1600x1200 it’s not defined.----- Original Message -----

Hi Everyone,
I’m trying to output text from the ttf library straight to the framebuffer,
however I can’t find any documentation on how to do it. Any help would be
greatly appreciated.
Julie.
