I've been successfully using DirectFB(CVS) with freevo(1.5.2) and
mplayer(CVS) via the second head on a Matrox G550 (UK Pal 720x576 50 Hz, TV
out).
This is running via a linux 2.6.9 kernel with fusion and the matroxfb full
memory patch.
Since 1st December I've been getting a crash with latest CVS DirectFB:-
DirectFB built with ./configure --enable-multi --with-gfxdrivers=matrox
--enable-debug
Trace on mplayer (dfbmga) start:-

More information can be supplied as required (including config files used
