The most I can tell you is it is a 300 Mhz Arm. Not speedy. Your ram specs are 
the same as ours (if not larger - depends on if management overrules 
engineering <sigh>).

As opposed to X, it was a size requirement as opposed to speed. However, 
MythTV is said to work quite well with a VIA at 600 Mhz. And, though you can 
pare down X by a lot with Modular X, I'm not sure how much nor what you lose.

DFB doesn't really "load" apps - it is not a manager. Think of it as a device 
abstraction layer. In other words, your application calls routines that 
instantiate DFB (not the other way around). Think of it as a library of video 
functions, rather than a window manager (I think you are getting all of it 
confused).

So, for example, you would start Firefox from the command line. Firefox in 
turn would start up DFB. DFB would then use the frame buffer to display a 
gui.

Hopefully that helps clarify things rather than muddle them up.

Cheers,

Lloyd
