I'm having a bit of trouble using fbdev. The FC1 kernel (2197) has support for it compiled in, but it doesn't work, as in: # fbset --info open /dev/fb0: No such device # ls -l /dev/fb0 crw------- 1 root root 29, 0 Sep 15 2003 /dev/fb0 There is no alias for char-major-29 in modules.conf, and in fact I see in the /boot/config* that FB is compiled into the kernel, not a module: # grep CONFIG_FB /boot/config-2.4.22-1.2197.nptl | grep -v \# CONFIG_FB=y CONFIG_FB_VESA=y [other output removed] Since things are compiled into the kernel, one shouldn't need an alias anyway. So, how does one connect /dev/fb0 to the FB driver? TIA, Mark Lanett
