Re: How to load display driver under CE6 without K flag?

The display driver must be loaded into the kernel space as far as I know.
You can do that by specifying the K flag with the driver in the modules
section, or by putting it into the FILES section without the K flag (where
it will be fixed up to kernel space at run time).

Hello!

I have a CE6 display driver DLL, which does not have the K flag. This
driver works fine in one CE6 environment, but it does not work in
another one (same HW, same processor, ...). In the non-working
environment, CE6 complains that the K flag is missing, in the working
one, the DLL is loaded without any comlaints... :-O

It is loaded like this:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GDI\Drivers]
"Display"="my_ddi.dll"

In the BIB file without the K flag:

my_ddi.dll $(...)\my_ddi.dll NK SH

How is a display driver supposed to work without the K flag?

Thanks,
Peter
