FIM hangs when outputting to framebuffer from tty (Debian 12)

I installed FIM to look at images from the TTY on a Debian 12 laptop. This laptop has XFCE running in one virtual terminal, with a bare TTY in another virtual terminal. When I run FIM in the TTY, it gives me no error messages, but hangs indefinitely. When I press CTRL-C to stop it, my image briefly flashes on the screen (for only one frame, I think), and then it goes back to the terminal.

Running FIM in a terminal emulator in XFCE, obviously I can't output to the framebuffer, but the default display method of sdl works fine, as does the aa method. The "dumb" method hangs, never displaying anything.

Here are links to stacktraces:
https://0x0.st/XHz5.txt (FIM in XFCE in sdl mode, works)
https://0x0.st/XHzn.txt (FIM in XFCE in dumb mode, broken)
https://0x0.st/XHzd.txt (FIM on the TTY in fb mode, broken)

Note that the "--- SIGINT {si_signo=SIGINT, si_code=SI_KERNEL} ---" line in the TTY/fb stacktrace is when I pressed CTRL-C.

Does anyone know what's happening here or how to fix it?

Thank you!
