[Freevo-users] Framebuffer vs. X

[Davin Desborough]

OK, I am hopelessly confused (in other words, a noob) on this issue. I get the point that framebuffer lets you run without X, but is that a tremendous improvement? I am currently running Freevo under X with my GeForce4 using the NVidia driver and I have no complaints about performance.   I guess I am looking for compelling reasons to attempt to get framebuffer up and running. If someone can tell me that there is a marked improvement when running under framebuffer, I'll give it a go.   Lastly, thanks to all the developers of Freevo for an excellent piece of software!   Thanks for any feedback, Davin
