Name
display-vgl -- FreeBSD/i386 console display
Synopsis
display-vgl : [-nodb] [-usedb]
Description
Displays on the FreeBSD/i386 console. 16 and 32bit direct color support with
the latest FreeBSD vgl(3) library (FreeBSD > R5.0 and a patch is available
for FreeBSD R4.x series).
Like VGL, the vgl-display depends on the current VGA/VESA modes and you
must load the vesa.ko module to get advanced modes (higher than 680x480x8).
Options
- -nodb
Don't use directbuffer.
- -usedb
Make use of directbuffer.
Features
True color support is best with directbuffer. Your
board must provide VESA 2.1 compliance to use directbuffer. If it's an old
S3 board, use the s3.ko module to access it's framebuffer (FreeBSD > R5.0). |
Unaccelerated (VESA). |
