To answer my own question, in case some other adventurous soul
wants to try: it is safe. But when you want to compile stuff
against .19 (cvs), you have to move /usr/include/directfb and
/usr/lib/libdirectfb* out of the way (then don't forget to put
them back when you're finished).
andi, here is how it went: with CVS fusion, DirectFB, lite and
dfbterm, I can run dfbterm (yay! it looks very nice.) BTW, the
vt-switching is working fine for me, I'll probably stick to CVS
just to get this feature ;-)
However, trying to start a second dfbterm from inside dfbterm
results in a segfault. I'm compiling XDirectFB right now to see
if it performs better (perhaps the problem is in lite, not dfb).
Additionally, when I *exit* DirectFB, it locks my machine. Not
as badly as before: now it responds to ping, and pressing Caps
or Num Lock turns the LEDs on and off. But I can't do anything
else, including logging in via ssh.
