Re: writing to the screen

[Pallav Nawani <pallav@sasken.com>]

Hi,
I am not sure what you want to do, but if all you want to do is draw
graphics on the screen, you can use sdl. AFAIK you cannot directly draw
on the screen, you have to be root to do that, and only in kernel mode.

You can open a X window and draw on that, or you can use gtk.
