Hmm, you can have virtual frame-buffers on Linux, i.e. framebuffers that don't correspond to a real screen. The linux vfb driver could be compiled as a module and loaded on demand. Then we'd only need a small userspace-app that allows one to see the small virtual fb by copying parts to the real framebuffer. OTOH we could also just modify the jz47xx hardware framebuffer driver to allow virtual screen resolutions greater than the real display's resolution, then use 'fbset' to switch to modes greater 320x240. Not sure how the scrolling would then be done, though (another userspace-app that sends ioctl() to /dev/fb0, I guess). cheers, David -- GnuPG public key: http://dvdkhlng.users.sourceforge.net/dk.gpg Fingerprint: B17A DC95 D293 657B 4205 D016 7DEF 5323 C174 7D40
