Accelerated frame buffer functions

2005-02-02 Thread Haakon Riiser
How can I use a frame buffer driver's optimized copyarea, fillrect, blit, etc. from userspace? The only way I've ever seen anyone use the frame buffer device is by mmap()ing it and doing everything manually in the mapped memory. I assume there must be ioctls for accessing the accelerated function
