This is a submodule to access linux framebuffer devices. It is supported to work as helper module (like vgahw) for the chipset drivers. There are functions for saving/restoring/setting video modes, set palette entries, and a few more helper functions. Some of them can be hooked directly into ScrnInfoRec. In ../drivers/fbdev is a "chipset" driver. It is a simple, non-accelerated and hardware-independent driver which works on top of this fbdevhw submodule.
