Hi everybody, I've developed a small fbdev application for internal test purpose that might be useful to other developers, so I'm releasing it under the GPL.Have you ever looked at http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/geert/fbtest.git, which is a git clone of CVS module FBdev/utlilities/fbtest of project linux-fbdev on sf.net?
I've seen the project, but my fbdev test application serves slightly different purposes, as I wanted to control FB devices from the command line, not run a test suite. It was also a way for me to learn the FB API, no existing application could have properly helped me there :-) I see that fbtest.git hasn't been updated for quite some time. Do you think we should try to merge the projects ? -- Regards, Laurent Pinchart
