Graphic Card in Arch Linux

[DrChill]

So ... since I have Arch Linux set up, I was wondering if I could figure out how to manipulate pixels, I just want something like this:

screen[0] = PIXEL_BLUE;

Where screen is the screen, 0 is equivalent to (0,0), and PIXEL_BLUE is the color blue.

Or something like that ...

No OS would let you do that :S

Unless you want to make a video card driver (which is much, much more complex than you might think), in which case you can start here: http://wiki.osdev.org/GUI

Oh, and have some http://www.linuxplanet.com/linuxplanet/tutorials/202/1/

Hmm, well then I'm probably going to use something like NCurses
