Hardware: imx6q

My board has only one /dev/fb0 , but I need another fb1 .

How to create /dev/fb1 ?

[ckoch]

Hmm. fbset seems to have all kinds of functionality to modify existing framebuffers. The search for a way to create a new frame buffer continues.

You can use fbset utility to manage framebuffers.

Have a great day,
