Re: LibGGI on Frame Buffer (Permedia 2)

Ive been running the PM2 Frame buffer, and the demos from libggi,
also ran some other GGI applications.

Im running it on Linux 2.2.1 (with the Ilario / Geert patches),
on x86 with a Diamond FireGL Pro 1000 8MB PCI card.


And thats cool.

Of course I am extremely biased, I think the frame buffer concept
is one of the hotest things going for Linux <grin>.
