Overview

Package framebuffer provides access to the operating system's native framebuffer

This requires framebuffer device support in the operating system. The framebuffer can be opened with the Open call, and will otherwise function like a regular display.

Note that not all framebuffers implement all methods, such as rotating or setting the contrast. On those implementations, these calls will be a no-op.
