Subject: FRAMEBUFFER policy
Date: Mon, 16 Jun 2003 02:00:12 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20030616020012.3f2d27dd.spyro@f2s.com> (raw)
Hi.
What is the policy as regards linux framebuffer drivers when presented
with a mode they cannot handle.
eg, suppose a driver can only handle even numbers of pixels and a
request is made for a mode with 639 pixels - should it allocate a 640
pixel wide mode?
or should it extend the height of a mode to allow hardware scrolling in
multiples of the font height?
Thanks.
