  1. OVERVIEW
    fbv (FrameBuffer Viewer) is a simple program to view pictures on a linux framebuffer device. In 2000, when fbv was created, there were no other situable programs performing the same task, so the authors decided to follow the rule: 'If you need a tool - write it yourself!' :-)

  2. REQUIREMENTS

  • Linux, configured to provide the framebuffer device interface
  • libjpeg for JPEG support
  • libpng for PNG support
  • build in BMP support
  1. INSTALLATION
  • run ./configure
  • type: make
  • type: make install
  1. USAGE
    Just run fbv without any arguments, and a short help message will appear.
