Hi,
I just checked in a preliminary version of fbtest.
The goal of fbtest is to have some simple tests that can be run to verify the
correctness of a frame buffer device. Performance is not the most important
property, correctness is.
The program is divided in three parts:
- drawops: frame buffer specific drawing operations, e.g. cfb8, planar, ...
- visops: visual operations. You can draw using different visuals
(monochrome, pseudocolor, truecolor, ...). Not all visuals are supported on
all hardware
- tests: so far I have 2 simple monochrome tests. They work fine on my
machine, using atyfb, in depths 8 (pseudocolor), 16, 24 and 32
(directcolor).
If I find more time, I'll tell you more about the internals.
Feel free to give it a try. You can check it out from
cvs.linux-fbdev.sourceforge.net, module name `fbtest'. Especially search for
`FIXME' and `not yet implemented' in the sources :-)
Enjoy!
Gr{oetje,eeting}s,
Geert
