Good morning,
I am using a EEEPC 701 with a native resolution of 800x480 and I'd
like to use this very resolution in DirectFB. Using only vesafb, I
realized that such resolution can't be obtained : the only modes
available are 4:3 ones. Therefore I can't use a parameter at boot tu
set the right (800x480) resolution.
I tried to switch resolution using SetVideoModes, but the best I get
is a buffer of the desired resolution partially displayed on the
screen, which is still in 640x480. The way the buffer is cropped
depends on the kind of cooperative level I use, but none of the 3
levels work the way I'd like.
I wanted to stick with directFB on top of the vesafb powered
framebuffer, but it looks it won't do the trick. Could you tell me how
I could get the resolution I want ? Do I have to install X ? I'm very
new to this stuff and must confess that I don't understand much. I'd
be delighted if somebody could explain me what the issue is and what I
have to do. Thanks in advance.
I'm using DirectFB 1.0 (this is the version in debian stable)
