Lloyd, are you sure your using XDirectFB? That's a X server that runs on top of DirectFB as described at http://www.directfb.org/index.php?path=Development%2FProjects%2FXDirectFB. Your developers may be using the X backend for DirectFB or the SDL backend for DirectFB, both of which allow hosting a DFB session in the X environment. _______________________________________________ directfb-users mailing list [email protected] http://mail.directfb.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/directfb-users
