[directfb-dev] Re: "unable to adjust heap offset" problem.

Is offscreen allocated within video memory? There is no video memory on my StrongARM SA1100 system, can I tell DirectFB to alloc the surface directly within the system memory?

Hi,
On my StrongARM SA1100 embedded system, DirectFB always report error:
(!!!) *** CAUTION [unable to adjust heap offset] *** surfacemanager.c (210)
But the program running is not affected. Is it message a error, or just
a warning that I can ignore?

This means that you've allocated too much offscreen stuff and the code
can't fit your primary surface to the memory. The surfacemanager should
throw out some offscreen stuff but currently it's not implemented. The
result being that offscreen surfaces will occupy the same memory as your
primary surface. I suppose you get this when changing resolutions?
