title: Frame buffer module of python
body: <p>I'm looking for a python module which can display <code>jpg</code> or <code>png</code> file to <code>/dev/fb0</code> directly.</p>
  
  <p>I hope the the module can call and display the picture on screen by like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>show_photo(path_to_jpg, x, y, dev='/dev/fb0')
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I had searched such kind of python module on google for several days, and I found the link: <a href="http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-announce-list/2001-August/000979.html" rel="noreferrer">[Module] Python Frame Buffer</a>, but the website was not found.</p>
  
  <p>Now, I'm using C program and call by <code>os.system()</code> function, and it is too slow. Does there has a python module which can show the picture directly to frame buffer, and support static picture, marquee? It will be better if the module also support playing video file like <code>mplayer</code>.</p>
