Never tried DirectFB under vmware so I can't help there. Have you tried other DFB apps (like the stuff from DirectFB-examples)? Oh, and one more thing XDirectFB requires that DirectFB is configured with multi-app support. I just added a note about this to the REAMDME as it's quite an essential piece of information. > >> DirectFB project looks cool, but documents are too little... > > > >I know.

To reduce the build time you may want to disable more useless stuff. I use this to configure my XDirectFB: ../configure \ --enable-maintainer-mode \ --disable-xorg \ --disable-dmx \ --disable-xvfb \ --disable-xnest \ --disable-xwin \ --disable-xprint \ --disable-xephyr \ --disable-xsdl \ --disable-dri \ --prefix=/usr \ --sysconfdir=/etc/X11 \ --localstatedir=/var \ --mandir=/usr/share/man \ --with-xkb-path=/usr/share/X11/xkb \ --with-default-font-path=unix/:-1 BTW those APP_MAN_SUFFIX etc. build problem are probably caused by some missing dev package. With Gentoo they are defined in /usr/share/aclocal/xorg-macros.m4 file which came from x11-misc/util-macros package. I don't know how Debian has packaged this stuff. -- Ville Syrjälä [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.sci.fi/~syrjala/ _______________________________________________ directfb-dev mailing list [email protected] http://mail.directfb.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/directfb-dev
