Hi,
I want to develop an application which can show mouse cursor on console's screen. The application will receive mouse events from /dev/input/eventX and then paint mouse on the screen. Following OMAP's reference manual, I think I should put the cursor to /dev/video1 layer and overlay this layer over GFX. But from omap_vout source code, I found that the max resolution supported by /dev/video1 is 1280x720 (1280p). If my resolution is 1024x768, how should I display my cursor on the whole screen? Besides, when I open the device video1 and query its capbilities, it only support STREAM and VIDEO_OUTPUT. I think I need VIDEO_OVERLAY to show my cursor, so I need to change the driver. Am I right? Finally, are there any examples for hardware cursor? Thank you very much.
Regards,
Rui
