Hi Davide,
Thanks for the info mate, I'm digesting all of it now.
The Debian installer GUI's look quite flash which is nice to see! :)
Is it built with only the patches that have been described at the
link below (GTK on DirectFB) - just want to make sure I'm fully up to
date with the latest code.
I've actually built up a GTK 2.8.3 installation running under
DirectFB with uClibc according to the instructions on http://
www.directfb.org/wiki/index.php/Projects:GTK_on_DirectFB.
The gtk-demo program seems to be working but does crash when doing a
few things (eg. right click over a text area and then any mouse
button press causes a crash, another one is open the 'application
main window' dialog, click on open, and then close - crash).
The error I'm getting on the console is:

I'm using the vesafb ywrap, mtrr, options with a vga setting of 788
if that helps at all.
Does it look like a gtk-demo, directfb, or gtk-directfb issue? Trying
to work out of it's a problem in my environment, or something I can
simply ignore (eg. bug is gtk-demo itself).
Any thoughts at all?
Cheers,
Marcus

Hi Marcus,
Are Mike/Attilio/etc on this list? or would I better off following up
with these guys on the debian-installer mailing list (or another one
elsewhere?)
they both are; I would suggest discussing DFB topics on this list;
if you're
interested on seeing what's up with the debian g-i, take a look at
[1].
AFAIK Mike is busy integrating dfb backend for Cairo in the Cairo
mainline
(see [2])
integration of gdk-directfb in gtk+ mainline should follow then ([3])
Attilio his bashing his head in order to fix [4]; see also recent
posts on
directfb-dev
about this problem.
/me is playing with fonts to make sure g-i can speak fluently all
the languages
(see [5])
ciao,
Davide
