######################## #### For Linux User #### ######################## First,make sure you have your kernel compiled with framebuffer support this version can only work with 8bpp,15bpp,16bpp, 24bpp, and 32bpp mode other color depth need libggi supported. see /usr/src/linux/Documentation/fb/vesafb.txt for more detials on using framebuffer device. 1) $ ./configure 2) $ make 3) make sure you are root now then type $ make install to install zhcon This version of zhcon can only be installed into /usr/local because path is hard-coded,I will change this later. so do not use --prefix option when configure. after install you can type zhcon to use. enjoy! ########################### #### For FreeBSD User #### ########################### First, make sure you have installed gmake, or GNU Make. The FreeBSD's make/pmake may work, but I don't promise that. Then: 1) $ ./configue NOTICE: do NOT use --prefix option! 2) $ gmake 3) su to root 4) # gmake install then type zhcon to enjoy :) NOTICE AGAIN: Use gmake, not make!! You can adjust screen resolution and/or color depth(only for FreeBSD). Read /usr/local/lib/zhcon/zhcon.cfg for more details.
