Hi! I'm having annoying problems with DirectFB, Matrox G200 and Gentoo Linux. I've scoured the web and posted to numerous forums about this problem, but so far I've got no responses. I also searched the this mailing list's archives but found no good explanation on what these error messages mean and how to fix the problem. Generic fbdev is working like a charm.
See these links for more information about my setup / configfiles: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-553242-highlight-.html http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=546036 Anyways, the problem is this: iIf I try launching _any_ DirectFB app (vdr w/ softdevice, mplayer, dfbg, dfb demo programs etc.) I get errors like this: (*) DirectFB/Core: Single Application Core. (2007-04-14 16:37) (!) Direct/Modules: Could not open module directory `/usr/lib/directfb-1.0-0/systems'! --> No such file or directory (!) DirectFB/core/system: No system found! (#) DirectFBError [DirectFBCreate() failed]: No (suitable) implementation found! /usr/lib/directfb-1.0.0 contains only these: gfxdrivers inputdrivers interfaces wm If I create a link from gfxdrivers to system, I will get this instead: (*) DirectFB/Core: Single Application Core. (2007-04-14 16:37) (!) Direct/Modules: Module 'libdirectfb_matrox.so' did not register itself after loading! Trying default module constructor... (!) Direct/Modules: ... even did not register after explicitly calling the module constructor! (!) DirectFB/core/system: No system found! (#) DirectFBError [DirectFBCreate() failed]: No (suitable) implementation found! So what does this "Module 'libdirectfb_matrox.so' did not register itself after loading!" mean? How do I get it to register? I noticed that if I compile "vanilla" DirectFB-1.0.0 from directfb.org, I don't get these problems. Even the "systems" directory is there. Is "emerge" just leaving some configuration option out which standard ./configure finds? What am I missing here?
