- framebuffer console speed
- Posted by rihad on December 3rd, 2003
"VESA VGA graphics support" is so slowwish... 1024x768@16bpp
$ stty size
48 128
$ ls -1A /usr/bin | wc -l
988
$ time ls -lA /usr/bin
real 0m3.776s
user 0m0.018s
sys 0m2.355s
In text mode ls would have been orders of magnitude faster.
Has anyone had any luck compiling in the "nVidia Riva support"
(CONFIG_FB_RIVA) under 2.6.0-test11 kernel? The source code says my card
(GF-MX 440) is supported. All I get with it is a blank screen, though.
