This is a framebuffer devel version.  Build from source.
Please use it with very sense, that is not usable under production situations.
It is for testing the idea and need to improve some things more.
This is only for beta testers.

Sources are in our source control.

The only usable Xserver is kdrive with FBdev support.  A ready to use binary
you will find in this directories here.

The base to start framebuffer is the kernel param "video=..."
* Use "video=cofb:640x480x32" to define the cofb size (only 32 bpp supported)
* Use "video=cofb:off" to disable cofb on boot
* Setup with "vga=COLSxROWS" as boot parameter

Please read more inside the changelog, sources and on devels mailing archive.

Please grep for "new cocon and cofb implementation" in colinux-devel list,
this starts here:
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=12577799

The development is currently paused.  We need a good C++ programmer to migrate
this code with current devel branch.

Screens with cofb in action made by Nuno are mirrored here.
All thanks to Nuno, the developer of cofb.
