View Full Version : [ET8500] Frame buffer issue after build 33

After build 33 the ET8500 is unable to display the chosen skin on the LCD display ... you just see either the complete TV screen or a mini PiP.
There was change to configure.ac after build 32 but in build 33 - "build configure options to select framebuffer and lcd device", that assigns a framebuffer device name - but "somewhere?" in the build it is picked up and incorrectly changes the ET8500 framebuffer output.

Running an image build without the code removes the issue ... for the ET8500 :)

Additional code is also in lib/gdi/fb.cpp fb.h lcdfb.cpp lcdfb.h ... I guess configure.ac is forcing /dev/fb0 for the lcd fb when it should be /dev/fb1

I have been running build 3.2.004 because RCSC and Remote Receiver stopped working for me for every subsequent build after that but I just tried 3.2.035 and can confirm the same problem with no longer being able to display the chosen skin - just full or mini tv picture.

Thanks for helping to track the problem down - much appreciated :)

Actually the code in configure.ac is OK, in lcdfb.h it!s checking the wrong field FB_DEV ...should now be LCD_DEV

twol is that fixed with the change from fb_dev to lcd_dev?

Have to run it tomorrow (wife is home from work)! But it should be correct... If you can wait will run build in the morning (Should only take a few minutes)...... Safer for me!
