Hi all, I'm using an ATMEL atngw100 board, with a nonstandard 128x64 LCD mounted on. The intention is to attempt to get DirectFB to attach itself to a virtual frame buffer device, which renders the frame buffer pixels according to the LCD's control protocols.
I've compiled a virtual frame buffer driver, which when insmodded, creates /dev/fb0. I've got DirectFB single application core installed, and have compiled an application to access DirectFB. The problem comes in getting the application to run. DirectFB is looking for a /dev/tty0 but can't find one. Presumably the same problem would occur with not having /dev/psaux. The problem is, there is no keyboard, or screen devices (except for the PuTTY I'm using) and no mouse. Therefore I am guessing I'd have to create dummy devices for these. I'd be really grateful if anyone can help with these questions as I'm struggling a bit. - Is there any way of bypassing the need for these i/o devices if they don't exist? - If not, does anyone know how can I create them? I have tried making a symbolic link from /dev/tty to /dev/tty0 but DirectFBCreate() reports a 'no such device' error. My guess is that I've made a fundamental mistake somewhere, but it's not clear where.
