  • arcan

    Arcan - [Display Server, Multimedia Framework, Game Engine] -> "Desktop Engine"

    • Something like this ? https://arcan-fe.com/

  • SDL-1.2

    Simple Directmedia Layer, 1.2 branch ... ***DEPRECATED***, please use https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL for new projects!

    • But that made me look up the (much) older version, SDL 1.2 which appears to use a 2D framebuffer and mentions several BSDs. So maybe OP would find it useful, either to use or just to read the source code for seeing how BSD framebuffer usage works (worked?). https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL-1.2
