Hi,

I want to know if there is frame buffer support in N800.

Yes. No support for console on framebuffer but generic framebuffer support shoud be there. Check /proc/fb. Maybe you are using wrong device? There are three on N800 (one on N770). Not sure why it is like this and why there is difference between N770 and N800 but try the one with higher number (2?).

I have written a simple application (drawing a pixel) on frame buffer and tried to execute it on N800 in root mode.
But it prompts the message "permission denied".

It should work but there is one small problem, see below :-)

Please let me know if there is support for frame buffer in N800. If there is support then how can I use it?

Problem is that the videochip is external so you won't see any output until you either issue proper update ioctl to update rectangle after you write your pixels or set the update mode to automatic (which is waste of resources, default is manual).
