Of course instead of using X11+DirectFB/SDL i could be using DirectFB + XDirectFB, but i still did not want to recompile the whole XFree ... And after all i have an nvidia card, so until nvidia release some more spec (or a directfb driver :-) ) i will have to use software emulation... Ah: i have seen that overlays have been added to nvidia driver, how was it possible to get the specs to do this? > I can develop DirectFB itself in this environment and I can install new > versions of DirectFB without restarting my session to test it.
