41 FBIOVRTOFFSET Returns the offset to a read-only "vertical retrace page"
42 for those framebuffers that support it. This vertical retrace page may
43 be mapped into user space with mmap(2). The first word of the vertical
44 retrace page (type unsigned int) is a counter that is incremented every
45 time there is a vertical retrace. The user process can use this counter
46 in a variety of ways.
47
48 FBIOMONINFO returns a mon_info structure which contains information about
49 the monitor attached to the framebuffer, if available.
50
51 FBIOSCURSOR, FBIOGCURSOR, FBIOSCURPOS and FBIOGCURPOS are used to control
52 the hardware cursor for those framebuffers that have this feature.
53 FBIOGCURMAX returns the maximum sized cursor supported by the
54 framebuffer. Attempts to create a cursor larger than this will fail.
55
56 Finally FBIOSDEVINFO and FBIOGDEVINFO are used to transfer variable-
57 length, device-specific information into and out of framebuffers.

59 SEE ALSO
60 ioctl(2), mmap(2), cgsix(7D)
61
62 BUGS
63 The FBIOSATTR and FBIOGATTR ioctl(2) requests are only supported by frame
64 buffers which emulate older frame buffer types. If a frame buffer
65 emulates another frame buffer, FBIOGTYPE returns the emulated type. To
66 get the real type, use FBIOGATTR.
67
68 The FBIOGCURPOS ioctl was incorrectly defined in previous operating
69 systems, and older code running in binary compatibility mode may get
70 incorrect results.
