Stop X server output to framebuffer

Hi,

I am using tinyX(aka Xfbdev), it is X server version for embedded
device. I have another application that needs fast blit to
screen(framebuffer), the path to screen is as shooter as better.

So I wonder if there is a way to tell Xfbdev to stop output to
framebuffer, then at this time my application can take the control to
framebuffer so it can directly write to video memory, it is fastest.

But at this time my application still needs X input event, this
requirement seems a little strange

Thanks.
