Disable when running with X server that supports reporting
changed regions via ioctl, as this method is simpler,
more stable, and higher performance.
default: fb_defio=1
console Allow fbcon to attach to udlfb provided framebuffers. This
is disabled by default because fbcon will aggressively consume
the first framebuffer it finds, which isn't usually what the
user wants in the case of USB displays.
console Allow fbcon to attach to udlfb provided framebuffers.
Can be disabled if fbcon and other clients
(e.g. X with --shared-vt) are in conflict.
default: console=1
shadow Allocate a 2nd framebuffer to shadow what's currently across
the USB bus in device memory. If any pixels are unchanged,
do not transmit. Spends host memory to save USB transfers.
Enabled by default. Only disable on very low memory systems.
