Dear PETER EASTHOPE,

That seems that you didn't switch on the Frame Buffer.
You should edit the /etc/grub.conf or /etc/lilo.conf
Add this to the kernel command line(vga=0x0318 )
kernel /vmlinuz..... rhgb quite vga=0x0318
If you know the kind of graphic hardware which is on the list of graphic
drivers DirectFB supptored.
Then you can rebuild the frame buffer driver into the kernel. Then edit the
/etc/grub.conf or /etc/lilo.conf.
add this to the kernel command line:
kernel /vmlinuz..... rhgb quite video=intelfb
(intelfb: Intel 830/845/852/855/865 graphic card for example)
You will get the the overlay acceleration layer.
Sincerely yours,
chiachen

DirectFB=======
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

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.
