CLUSTER DRIVER-FRAMEBUFFER-VIDEO · 5 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2019-09-10
X11 dummy video drivers
This cluster comprises X11 video drivers that provide a dummy virtual framebuffer for headless systems without dedicated graphics acceleration. The pre-index dated history is thin: one entry in September 2019, then two entries each in June and August 2025 (five dated entries total). All members show negligible public traction (0 stars), with xlibre-video-fbdev, xlibre-video-dummy, and xf86-video-dummy-with-vt leading the activity signal.
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Two labels per entry, never collapsed into one: how it was built, and who stands behind it. Counted over the 5 listed below. Unlabelled means nothing has decided yet — not that the answer is small.

Ranked by traction, highest first, and paged 20 at a time — this is a window on the cluster, never the whole of it. Ties are broken by a stable id so a product cannot appear on two pages or fall between them. Browse every cluster.
