BTW it would make sense to re-test the crash cases. Many ioctl arguments were incorrect. It was spotted by Sakur here: http://mail.directfb.org/pipermail/directfb-dev/2007-April/002961.html I pushed the fix some time ago: http://git.directfb.org/?p=core/DirectFB.git;a=commit;h=47d97462a08240236683b4cc3aa77c66bd8ca241 -- Ville Syrjälä [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.sci.fi/~syrjala/ _______________________________________________ directfb-users mailing list [email protected] http://mail.directfb.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/directfb-users
