+.SH NAME
+checkfb \- check for the existence of a framebuffer device
+.\" RST source for checkfb(1) man page. Convert with:
+.
+.\" rst2man.py checkfb.rst > checkfb.1
+.
+.\" rst2man.py comes from the SBo development/docutils package.
+.
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.sp
+checkfb <[\fIdevice\fP]>
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.sp
+checkfb attempts to open the Linux framebuffer device read\-only. If successful,
+it reports the display resolution and bit depth.
+.sp
+By default, it opens \fB/dev/fb0\fP\&. The \fIdevice\fP option overrides this.
+.sp
+There are no options.
+.SH EXIT STATUS
+.sp
+0 (success) if the framebuffer exists and can be opened.
+.sp
+Non\-zero means failure: the device doesn\(aqt exist, the permissions
+don\(aqt allow opening it, or possibly the kernel doesn\(aqt support
+framebuffer devices at all.
+.SH EXAMPLES
