Hi All, I would like to read a Image data already present in the framebuffer, as I am new to this , I am finding it difficult to read. I have written one small application where I want to read Image pixels value which are present in Frame buffer.
You can simply open and read /dev/fb0 and it will dump the framebuffer in raw format. cat /dev/fb0 will also do the trick. Google for a screenshot program for the framebuffer. fbgrab is an example.
