@nilix if you try it out let me know how it goes! i've only tested it on this one machine so far -- in theory it should auto-detect the input devices/events but it's possible i'll have to add more code

@d6 cool! Is it a module you compile into the kernel?
Show thread∴ esoterik ∴Mar 18
@mccd no, the program runs in userspace. basically you log into one of the virtual consoles and run `uxn-lfb <your-rom>`

@d6 Super cool! Congrats

@d6 (Forgive a Linux newbie) So this will run without X like SDL relies on? I think small LCDs from e.g. Sparkfun can show up as framebuffera, right? And the display on MNT computers?

@gustav right, you don't need X, Wayland, SDL, or anything else.

i'm not sure about sparkfun but a raspberry pi, mnt reform, and most other linux systems with attached displays should provide framebuffers.
