framebuffer image dissapear

Guru 20755 points

Hello,

I am using psplash utility to display image on lcd.

On running ./psplash I see the image for a split of second and then it dissapear.

Is this the behaviour that should be expected ? How can I make the image stay on the display ?

Regards,

Ran

  • Hi Ran,

    When I try the psplash executable on the DM814x TI EVM (with latest version of EZSDK), the TI logo image stays until I clear the buffer. The image does not disappear until I clear the framebuffer.

    root@dm814x-evm:~# /etc/init.d/matrix-gui-e stop
    Stopping Matrix GUI application.
    root@dm814x-evm:~# cd /usr/bin/
    root@dm814x-evm:/usr/bin# ./psplash &
    root@dm814x-evm:/usr/bin# cat /dev/zero > /dev/fb0

  • Right,

    Seems that something changed between kernel releases in the behavuiour of fbdev and psplash changed accordingly.

    Thanks
