Folk,

This system is Debian Lenny with kernel 2.6.24.

DirectFB and qemu are completely unfamiliar to me.  Nevertheless 
I tried to boot an image.

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ qemu -m 40 -boot d -cdrom /home/peter/Desk*/AosCD.iso

     =======================|  DirectFB 1.0.1  |=======================

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ man xserver-xorg-video-fbdev
No manual entry for xserver-xorg-video-fbdev

I have no introductory documentation for DirectFB and it 
is not mentioned in "man qemu".

Is DirectFB appropropriate for use by qemu?
If so, how should /dev/fb0 be created?   
What configurations are likely to be missing?

Thanks for any ideas,            ... Peter E.
