I've compiled a ruby kernel (linux-2.6.7-1) and booted it. It inits my 2 framebuffer devices and creates 2 dummy virtual consoles. I don't understand how to tell my framebuffer application (XDirectFB, an X server using the DirectFB framebuffer library), which virtual console/terminal to use. All I know is which framebuffer device each card is. I know how to tell XDirectFB which fb device to use. I don't know how that framebuffer device translates into virtual terminals or consoles, or any of that. What settings do I activate to get a specific frame buffer device to be on a specific virtual console/terminal so that applications using that fb device don't monopolize all the displays? :) __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
