hi luca

you should be able to expand/collapse GTK trees by using "+" and "-" keys.
about the touchpad bug: neither my touchpad (synaptic) works with DFB 
0.9.24, unless the linux_input module is deleted.
Maybe we could add something in directfbrc to prevent that module from 
being loaded? DFB pople, what do you suggest to do?

friendly
