Yes, maybe I did not phrase it well enough. Is it possible retreive the configure options from a binary libdirectfb? To check if this particular binary version has the correct features compiled in.

My current interest is in using the video capture built in CLE266 ... I have used the v4l drivers from via on X-windows distro but was enquiring about the specific v4l(2) support for CLE266 under directfb. I guess you had addressed that in your previous answer.
