Dropped kdrive == fbdev regression

2017-03-10 Thread Steven Newbury
Since kdrive, in particular Xfbdev has been dropped, this has left a hole in support for MONO (1bpp) framebuffer devices. I've been using Xfbdev for a picolcd mono matrix device for a few years. The Xorg fbdev driver only supports a minimum of 8bpp framebuffer formats which wasn't a problem given

kdrive udev/seat support

2014-10-23 Thread Steven Newbury
I'm adding udev/seat support to kdrive* in order to support running Xfbdev on a picolcdfb device (USB mono LCD + keys) as an auxiliary video display on which I'll run a graphical system monitor like Conky. Right now I have basic -seat support working, when !seat0 vt switching is disabled and it
