Has anyone tried directfb on FriendlyARM? I've cross-compiled it, but I'm having a problem with memcpy(). It crashes with an illegal opcode. I've tried with asm_memcpy() and libc_memcpy(), but it continues to fail. Can anyone help me? Thanks, Carlos Castro
Hello Carlos, in another forum, about mmap framebuffer problem, I read this: > You need to set the size of the fb1 framebuffer by writing it to > /sys/class/graphics/fb1/size, like this (for a 4MB framebuffer): > echo 4194304 > /sys/class/graphics/fb1/size can be the same problem? Please let me know about: I'm trying the DirectFB too. Clemente.
Hi Clemente, thanks for replying.
I don't have that file. This is what I have in that directory:
[root@FriendlyARM /]# cd /sys/class/graphics/fb0/
[root@FriendlyARM fb0]# ls
bits_per_pixel dev name stride
blank device pan subsystem
console mode rotate uevent
cursor modes state virtual_size
[root@FriendlyARM fb0]#
But I don't think that the problem is with the fbdev, cause SDL is working
fine, and even fb-gnash, that is a flash player using directfb is working
properly. Only the test apps from directfb don't work ( like dfbinfo). When
I try one of them it gives me this error:
[root@FriendlyARM fb0]# dfbinfo

Hello Carlos,
I have this problem, but with a different version of directfb:
