Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-hackers@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi, I am not on the list, and am new to BSD, just graduated from Linux :) I wanted to port my OS (http://tisya.co.in/) to get away from Linux completely... For the same, the only hinderance lies in using framebuffer. Our GUI is based on Linux framebuffer, we don't use X Win at all... Is there something similar to Linux FB with FreeBSD? If yes, how do I activate it? (on linux there's ad evice at /dev/fb0) Eagerly awaiting your reply and waiting to take the plunge at full steam...
