Re: I wrote a little graphics thing
Hello,
did some more work:
- finally implemented key repeat
- ioctl(WSDISPLAYIO_SVIDEO) based screen saver
- use a hardware sprite for the mouse cursor if we find support via wsdisplay
- made sure the shadow fb covers only the visible screen - some
hardware ( like ffb, all HP ) has a fixed pitch of usually 2048 pixels
- use only 32bit reads and writes when updating video memory ( should
change that to unsigned long for LP64 hw )
- open as many terminals as we can fit on the screen, how many you get
depends on the font used
As a result this is quite usable on an ss5 despite not using any
hardware acceleration.
Finally, thanks to Christos, it's got a proper name now.
