[netsurf] pixel format in linux framebuffer mode
by Mathieu Soula
Hi,
First of all, we want to thank all of you for your great job on the
netsurf project. We're currently working on building our own Linux
embedded system, and we chose to include netsurf for its capacity to be
launched on the framebuffer.
Everything is working fine so far. However we are facing some weird
behaviour when stuff is displayed in 32bpp mode. After some tests, we
figured out that in linux framebuffer mode, the default pixel format was
BGR (libnsfb/src/surface/linux.c). Is there any particular reason why
this mode has been chosen?
Does modifying this pixel format into RGB could lead to some unexpected
display problems ?
