/*
* Modesetting Example
* This example is based on:
* https://github.com/dvdhrm/docs/blob/master/drm-howto/modeset.c
*
* What does it do?
* It opens a single DRM-card device node, assigns a CRTC+encoder to each
* connector that is connected and creates a framebuffer (DRM-dumb buffers)
* for each CRTC that is in use.
* It then draws a changing color value for 5s on all framebuffers and exits.
