I forgot to CC this email to the list..
How is this normally done? do I simply reply to the emails, or should I always 
send to the list?

----

/usr/lib is empty...
/lib/ however does contina the directfb folder and the devmem library

# ls -l /usr/lib/
# ls -l /lib/directfb-1.4-0/systems/
-rw-r--r--    3 1000     users       14604 Aug  5 02:41
libdirectfb_devmem.a
-rwxr-xr-x    3 1000     users        1052 Aug  5 02:41
libdirectfb_devmem.la
-rw-r--r--    3 1000     users       12135 Aug  5 02:41
libdirectfb_devmem.o

I tried copying the directfb-1.4-0 folder to /usr/lib/ but the result is
the same.

# dfbinfo --dfb:system=devmem

...

(*) DirectFB/Core: Single Application Core. (2010-08-05 01:24)
(!) DirectFB/core/system: No system found!
(#) DirectFBError [DirectFBCreate() failed]: No (suitable)
implementation found!
