Does anybody have any further information about whether these two packages are still actively maintained. I can't find any recent information about either of them. The DirectFB link supplied in the book is to a list of packages on fedoraproject.org. Apparently, DirectFB was dropped from fedora after F19. The original DirectFB website, directfb.org, now appears to be a website relating to sex.
Regarding SVGAlib, the website that the book links to looks exactly the same as it did when I first downloaded the SVGAlib source code about twelve years ago. Furthermore, all the links on that website point to an Israeli website. Perhaps both of these projects are now lost causes. Any advice would be much appreciated. Both (or rather either) of these packages were useful in providing the links browser with a graphical interface. Are there any alternatives, other than installing Xorg? Could SDL or SDL2 be used in some way? I've looked on the Twibright website and there are no clues there, other than a reference to SVGAlib. Richard
