Hi,

It does not have any OSD and attribute window. It has only two Video windows. I 
don't know which demo you are talking about. Applications like DirectFB only 
runs on the the FBDEV so they will not run on dm6467. For these kind of 
applications, you need to write a V4L2 layer, same as the FBDEV layer, to 
display frames.

Thanks,
Brijesh Jadav

Hi,

Thank you. So what can be done for displays, Like we had in DM6446,  video 
window, OSD window and Attribute window.
What should be done to run the demo available with EVM kit?

Regards,
Naveena

Hi,

As far as i know, dm6467 does not support FBDEV driver. It has only video 
pipelines so it supports only V4L2 drivers. You will find /dev/video0 to 
/dev/video3 for the V4L2 devices.

Thanks,
Brijesh Jadav

Hi,

Can you check the output of /proc/devices, there should be a 'fb' character 
device (major 29). This corresponds to the /dev/fb/0 device (maj 29, minor 0) 
on my system (a DM355). This indicates that the kernel has the framebuffer 
driver built in. If this does not appear then, it has either been built as a 
module or not at all.

You should also be able to check the kernel configuration has DAVINCI_FB set - 
extract it from the running kernel to remove any mistakes about how the current 
kernel  is configured....

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~#<UrlBlockedError.aspx> zcat /proc/config.gz |grep FB
CONFIG_FB=y
# CONFIG_FB_MODE_HELPERS is not set
# CONFIG_FB_TILEBLITTING is not set
CONFIG_FB_DAVINCI=y
# CONFIG_FB_VIRTUAL is not set
Check boot arguments....

Kernel boot arguments (on 1 line so be wary of linewrap)
mem=100M console=ttyS0,115200n8 noinitrd root=/dev/nfs rw nfsroot=172.18.0.13:/t
ftpboot/remote_fs/davinci_dm355 ip=dhcp video=davincifb:vid0=720x480x16,4050K:vi
d1=720x480x16,4050K:osd0=720x480x16,2025K davinci_enc_mngr.ch0_mode=ntsc davinci
_enc_mngr.ch0_output=COMPOSITE
Also during bootup I get the following framebuffer related items...

davincifb davincifb.0: dm_osd0_fb: [EMAIL PROTECTED],0 with framebuffer size 
2025KB
davincifb davincifb.0: dm_vid0_fb: [EMAIL PROTECTED],0 with framebuffer size 
4050KB
davincifb davincifb.0: dm_osd1_fb: [EMAIL PROTECTED],0 with framebuffer size 
1350KB
davincifb davincifb.0: dm_vid1_fb: [EMAIL PROTECTED],0 with framebuffer size 
4050KB

Confirm 'udev' is running....you should see (during boot up)
INIT: version 2.85 booting
Mounting a tmpfs over /dev...done.
Creating initial device nodes...done.

Also 'udevd' should appear in a 'ps aux' once logged in. It is possible that 
the device node has not been created because udev is not running.

Hi,
            There is no device like /dev/fb/0 or /dev/fb/0. We tested the demos 
available with the DM6446 kit, it was working. It was also dealing with frame 
buffers.
Is it sure that there is frame buffer support in DM6467? Has anybody worked 
with it? We are trying to do OSD on it.


Regards,
Naveena.

Hi,

The davinci boards should have /dev/fb/0 rather than /dev/fb/0 - this is true 
for DM355 & DM6446. I do not have a DM6467 to check against but I would guess 
it is the same.

Hi,
            We got encode and decode application with DM6467 EVM kit. But the 
composite video output is not working as we followed the instructions.
In the application, we are opening /dev/fb0 (frame buffer) device. But /dev/fbx 
is not there in the root file system. First we used the uImage in the hard 
disk. Then we built a new kernel after ensuring framebuffer console, VDCE 
driver are enabled( by make menucofig). With this kernel also, we didn’t get 
the frame buffer node.
Can anybody tell what may be the issue? And also provide a solution ? or how to 
proceed?

Regards,
Naveena
