Up until version 0.3.0, FreeSCI used a graphics subsystem which used per-pixel operations on three 320x200 8 bit buffers. This concept, while being simple to implement for driver writers, proved to have several disadvantages: | Up until version 0.3.0, FreeSCI used a graphics subsystem which used per-pixel operations on three 320x200 8 bit buffers.

This documentation section will describe the architecture and functionality of the new graphics subsystem, which has been in operation since FreeSCI 0.3.1. I will start by giving a general overview of the various components involved and how they interact, and then give a more detailed description of each of those components in sequence. | This documentation section will describe the architecture and functionality of the new graphics subsystem, which has been in operation since FreeSCI 0.3.1.
