  2. Core dump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Core_dump

    Small memory dump – contains various info such as the stop code, parameters, list of loaded device drivers, etc. Automatic Memory Dump (Windows 8 and later) – same as Kernel memory dump, but if the paging file is both System Managed and too small to capture the Kernel memory dump, it will automatically increase the paging file to at least ...

  3. Framebuffer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Framebuffer

    As the demand for better graphics increased, hardware manufacturers created a way to decrease the amount of CPU time required to fill the framebuffer. This is commonly called graphics acceleration. Common graphics drawing commands (many of them geometric) are sent to the graphics accelerator in their raw form.

  4. VGA text mode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VGA_text_mode

    The VGA text buffer is located at physical memory address 0xB8000. [14] Since this address is usually used by 16-bit x86 processes operating in real-mode, it is also the first half of memory segment 0xB800. The text buffer data can be read and written, and bitwise operations can be applied. A part of text buffer memory above the scope of the ...

  5. kdump (Linux) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kdump_(Linux)

    In a "dual kernel" layout, kdump uses kexec to boot another kernel and obtain a memory dump. [3]: 10 In the event of a kernel crash, kdump preserves system consistency by booting another Linux kernel, which is known as the dump-capture kernel, and using it to export and save a memory dump.

  6. Direct Rendering Manager - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_Rendering_Manager

    The Direct Rendering Manager (DRM) is a subsystem of the Linux kernel responsible for interfacing with GPUs of modern video cards.DRM exposes an API that user-space programs can use to send commands and data to the GPU and perform operations such as configuring the mode setting of the display.

  7. Memory forensics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_forensics

    Memory forensics is forensic analysis of a computer's memory dump. Its primary application is investigation of advanced computer attacks which are stealthy enough to avoid leaving data on the computer's hard drive. Consequently, the memory (e.g. RAM) must be analyzed for forensic information.

  8. Graphics address remapping table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphics_address_remapping...

    A GART is used as a means of data exchange between the main memory and video memory through which buffers (i.e. paging/swapping) of textures, polygon meshes and other data are loaded, but can also be used to expand the amount of video memory available for systems with only integrated or shared graphics (i.e. no discrete or inbuilt graphics ...

  9. Desktop Window Manager - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desktop_Window_Manager

    DWM works in different ways depending on the operating system (Windows 7 or Windows Vista) and on the version of the graphics drivers it uses (WDDM 1.0 or 1.1). Under Windows 7 and with WDDM 1.1 drivers, DWM only writes the program's buffer to the video RAM, even if it is a graphics device interface (GDI) program.
