We are using software (Pegasys) which runs on SunOS 5.8 and reads images from a Philips nuclear camera. The software is designed to run from the console. I need to be able to capture the images it produces on the display. The caveat is that I cannot use the X Windows display because the X Server is not producing the images and therefore has no knowledge of the image. I've tried doing a display dump (xwd) and displaying the image I captured (xwud) but the image is blank (black). I have learned that the application is most likely using 'Direct Graphics Access' and so my dumps I've taken prove that that is the case and cannot go that route. I was hoping to find some way of getting the image being display by taking a pixel-by-pixel dump of the screen. I'm not sure, other than writing an application to reads the framebuffer (/dev/fb) and then dumping the image (somehow) from there? Extremely delicate scenario if not impossible. What other options do you recommend?
Thank you,
