I recommend to disable hw acceleration on ppc systems. At least for now.
It is best to pass
--with-gfxdrivers=none
to configure on ppc.
Judging from your cursor you are experiencing the "bi-endian system"
problem. (ram: big-endian, vram: little-endian). This should not result
in a crash, but shows me that you are using a gfxdriver, which in
addidion may cause your segfault.

this seems very useful help, tough i think the precompiled and packaged
DFB 0.9.22 DFB libs we use were compiled without that option: is there a
run time parameter we cun place in /etc/directfbrc?
i'll forward your mail to debian-boot and i'll keep you CC'ed.
"no-hardware" would turn off acceleration.
I've forwarded you mail to the betatester, i hope he has the time to
test the "no-hardware" option.
Since the graphical installer needs compatibility and reliability more
than speed could be a good idea disabling the hardware acceleration by
default on all archs the graphical debian installer supports (i386, PPC,
AMD64 ATM, Sparc and ARM too in th future) using this run-time option?
Is there any other way to improve compatbility and reliability without
having to recompile the libdirectfb with special options?
thanks
Attilio
