#tentative

A tool to try out KMS configurations.

#Building

Dependencies:

• libdrm
• libscfg
• scdoc (optional, for man pages)

Run these commands:

meson build/
ninja -C build/

If you don't have libscfg installed, you can download it as a subproject:

meson subprojects download

#Usage

First, create a KMS configuration file. See the man page. Example:

plane 42 {
    CRTC_ID crtc 24
    CRTC_X value 10
    CRTC_Y value 20
    FB_ID fb {
        size 128x128
        fill_color "#FF0000"
    }
}

Then, run tentative with the configuration file:

tentative <configuration>

Useful resources:

• The examples/ directory
• drm_info
• KMS properties docs
• The contrib/drm-convert script to produce images suitable for fill_file
