Hi My apologies to everbody concerned - I should have read the posts more thoroughly. Lack of time is my only excuse.
Unfortunately, I never got round to using directfb as a graphical desktop environment. I am using it only as a graphical web browsing environment with the links browser. The version I am using, directfb-0.9.25.1, is probably well out of date by now. I seem to have dispensed with the patch, but I am certain that it would no longer be relevant anyway to a more current version of directfb. Apologies again.
