Hi, This is quite strange. Since we have all the kernel code for each driver,we can access whatever location we want. Just we need to know what is that location. How X is giving the data, I think by using some standard interface and those interface access graphics/video driver. So missing point is that what is the location, is there any standard APIs inside kernel by which we can access video card memory?? Please correct me if i am wrong.
what makes you think the pixels are stored in a "framebuffer format" ? and not some magic, video card internal format ? what makes you think the kernel would even know what it would be? the video driver is mostly in userspace. _______________________________________________ MeeGo-kernel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.meego.com/listinfo/meego-kernel
