I forked this project, stole a bunch of the JNI, but everything else is a near total rewrite.

It builds using Apache Maven, and works great on my raspberry pi with one of those TFT displays on /dev/fb1.

Provides a java.awt.image.BufferedImage whose DataBuffer provides direct and immediate read/write access to the linux framebuffer; no more background threads flushing writes since all changes are immediate.

Sample use is to grab a java.awt.Graphics from a FrameBufferedImage and start painting pretty pictures on your pi's TFT.

Should in theory work fine on other linux systems using framebuffer devices, but only tested with a raspberry pi 2, model b.

Yikes, looks like this pull request kept following a branch after I submitted it. I'll have to fix that.

Is it good to checkout? I was going to work with this sometime today if you need something cleaned up

Yeah it works just fine. There's just a raspberry pi clock in src/test/java that I was developing for my five year old, which added a ton of commits unrelated to mavenization.
