Most users of DirectFB with unichrome graphics have concluded that the
VIA framebuffer does not work very well.  That is the reason that
there is a framebuffer driver in DirectFB's CVS.  This has quite a
complicated history but provides all the functions needed for good
performance with DirectFB.  However, it may well lack some things
necessary for the CN400 chipset.

In a later email, Hans-Erik.Floryd implies he has successfully used
the DirectFB version of viafb with the CN400 so you might like to try
his patch.

If you can get that to work, it'll be a lot easier than trying to
support ypan etc. in VIA's code.  Even when you've done that, you
won't have everything you need because I don't think VIA's own driver
supports the WAITFORVSYNC ioctl either.
