Hi All,
Currently, I tried to run nano-X over Screen Driver - X11, it works
fine. But when I try it wid framebuffer I get an error:
Error opening /dev/fb0: No such device: Check Kernel Config
Cannot initialize screen.
I read thru the mailing archives, it tells me to check the kernel for framebuffer support.
In kernel config (make menuconfig)
> Device Drivers > Graphics Support > Support for Frame Buffer Devices (*)
is enabled.
now is this sufficient. Or do I need to check something else ??
Note: I have also checked the Env Variable: FRAMEBUFFER which was initially not set.
then I made it :
export FRAMEBUFFER=/dev/fb0
also tried /dev/fb
What else can I check ?
How else do I verify framebuffer support in the kernel ?
