[vivens <vi...@be...>]

Well, I mend it like this:
I'm trying to build a framebuffer for an embedded ARM platform (which
doesn't use any kind of a Lunix distr).
I want to use a framebuffer, because some apps need it. For example the
ZEN browser I want to implement on this platform.
So my question is:
What basic functions does a framebuffer normally have, what is need to
initialize for these functions?
Can I see the framebuffer as the API between the video hardware and any
application what uses the video hardware?

Whit kind regards,
Vincent Ivens

WHat do you mean? Functionality from a userland perspective or from
inside
the kernel. Which version of the kernel are you looking at?
