10Testing the Code
11----------------

13Starting up an instance:
14
15service up /service/fb -dev /dev/fb0 -args edid.0=cat24c256.3.50
16
17The arguments take the following form:
18
19	edid.X=L where X is the frame buffer device (usually 0) and L is
20	the service label of the service to perform the EDID reading. In
21	the example above, it's the EEPROM with slave address 0x50 on
22	the 3rd I2C bus. If you want to use the defaults and skip EDID
23	reading, you may omit the arguments.
