About running the demos on Linux
From: Hwak Han (=?iso-8859-1?Q?=C7=D1=C8=AE?=) ####@####.#### Date: 2 May 2000 08:44:29 -0000 Message-Id: <390E95C4.EF8ECE78@iris.snu.ac.kr> Hi. I'm new to the list and microWindows. I have downloaded the 0.87 source into my Linux box operating Red Hat v6.2. After some tuning with 'src/configure' I could compile the entire library demo, but I have a great pain to run the demos. Every time I run the demo (in src/bin directory), I get the following message complaining about display: Error opening /dev/fb0: No such device Cannot initialize screen: No such device I tried the every 4 display option (frame buffer, SVGA, HWVGA, X11) but failed to execute the demos. Can anybody enlighten me? It's eaten up my whole day! Thanks in advance. -- Isaac Hwak Han (ÇÑÈ®) ####@####.#### http://peace.snu.ac.kr/isaac/ | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

You must choose FB if you have a FB device which you don't seem to have (/dev/fb0 doesn't exists) Choose X11 instead. (edit the config file and set the GRAPHIC SUBSYSTEM to X11) > > Every time I run the demo (in src/bin directory), I get the following > message complaining about display: > > Error opening /dev/fb0: No such device > Cannot initialize screen: No such device You haven't any FB device setup. Recompile the kernel and enable it if you want to have one. > > I tried the every 4 display option (frame buffer, SVGA, HWVGA, X11) > but failed to execute the demos. X11 should work èretty well (after having startx :-) ) Hope this helps -jec | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
