Hello,
I am interested in using directFB and starting to gather information. I am
also new with graphical interface areas. I have a few questions about
directFB.
1) I see the architecture document for fusion describes the intention of
fusion to allow multiple directFB processes to work together using shared
memory with master/slave approach but I could see it describes how each process
interact through directFB. I appreciate if some one can explain or point to any
examples.
2) I am unclear whether fusion needs any kernel patch to work or it is just
another device that is in kernel space?
3) Does fusion allow interprocess communication similar to X11?
4) From source code, code always uses fusion library independent of the
"--enable-multi" option. My understanding is fusion is for multiple processes
work but it seems that directFB core uses fusion all the time. Please help
clarify this.
5) Is there any window manager for directFB? I am looking for a simple
window manager that can switch window of different processes in particular.
6) It seems that directFB should fit well in embedded environment than
variety of small X implementations but I do not see example of small embedded
device using directFB. Any one use directFB in small embedded environment such
as PDA etc?
Thank you,
-Pandit
