It's not compulsory but we recommend to use DRM instead of Linux framebuffer 
because Linux framebuffer not only has many limitations for advanced ARM SoC 
but also doesn't support the integrated buffer manager.

It would be dependent on what backend - Linux framebuffer or DRM - is used by 
native window system such as X or Wayland server.
The advantages with DRM is that Tizen platform is DRM-friendly so it is easy to 
port Tizen platform to your kernel, including easy-to-manage DMA buffer and 
many hardware features available.

Thanks,
