Hi GGI makers,
My windowing system just wants those evExpose events to properly update
the screen. I have found the posting to this mailing list below,
dated from over a year ago.
Grepping through the ggi source code I found that for fbdev
and svga targets, the events are generated
(display/${TARGET_DISPLAY}/visual.c). I am currently developing
on the X target on SuSE linux.
Is there a workaround or how much work is it to switch to the fbdev
device? (Configuring kernel etc.)
