Framebuffer drivers are the simplest form of graphics drivers under Linux.
Kernel modesetting DRM drivers are still a relevant option if the only
thing you are after is a basic two-dimensional display.
- Furthermore, when implementing framebuffer acceleration on top of a kernel
- modesetting DRM driver, the same callbacks need to be filled.
+ It is also useful to know how framebuffer drivers work when implementing
+ framebuffer acceleration on top of a kernel modesetting DRM driver, as
+ the acceleration callbacks are the same.
A framebuffer driver implements little functionality, and is therefore
extremely easy to create.
Such a driver is especially interesting for embedded systems, where memory
