The is a famous library, svgalib, a "low level console graphics library" which can - under _very_ specific circumstances - display graphics "on" the text mode console. There are few browsers, image viewers and even media players that can use this interface to display "console graphics" while _not_ needing X. However, this only works for local displays. As soon as there is a serial or SSH connection involved, it doesn't work anymore. I've actually never seen this working on FreeBSD; maybe it's just a Linuxism. Maybe it's just because I've never tried. :-) -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ... _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
