hi all,

i'm having some difficulties getting directfb 0.9.20 to correctly recognize
my unichrome device.

i've read through the mailing list, and have found a few answers to
questions i had regarding cle266vgaio and the modified viafb.  i'm using the
modified viafb from cvs.  i'm *not* trying to use cle266vgaio in any way.

directfb correctly loads and registers the unichrome driver, though a strack
trace of dfbinfo shows an attempt to open /dev/cle266vgaio.  dfbinfo reports
the graphics device as the 0.6 software rasterizer.  lspci shows the
unichrome device (0x3122), correctly matching the CLE266 define in
via_fbobj.h.  i did try creating the device after loading viafb, which
causes dfbinfo to segv.  this leads me to believe i need directfb from cvs
if i'm going to use the modified viafb rather than cle266vgaio.

i suppose the simple question is: must i use directfb from cvs with the
modified viafb, or do i have another problem?

i've attempted to build directfb from cvs to test this theory, but the
builder bombs with an undefined symbol (_fusion_shmalloc something, i can't
remember the exact symbol name, and the machine is ~30 miles away =P).  time
has been short, so i've only tried building it once and have not mucked
around with it at all, so i may be overlooking something simple.  i'll not
be able to muck around with it much this weekend, though i thought i'd pick
the list for a quick answer, if one exists.

thanks,

-mike
