Hello. I hope this is in the right place.
I just built a new machine and installed Xubuntu and I'm still figuring
things out.
I'm interested in working with The Linux Frame Buffer.
Many years ago, I started a project called ezfb and I would like to
continue developing it on a machine capable of 4K.
Is it possible to have a frame buffer that does 3840x2160 ?
With nouveau installed as my video driver, I can get to a frame buffer
console of 1920x1080, but I am limited to that resolution in Xfce as well.
With a proprietary nVidia driver installed I can get to 4K in Xfce, but
my frame buffer is 640x480, 4 bit color. When I try fbset to change
anything, it doesn't work.
I have not even bothered to try my code so see of any of it can actually
work in the frame buffers I get.
Still scratching my head....
Thank you for your time.
James.
