Update: After enabling debug and browsing through the code, I discovered that I was passing the wrong arguments to the test program.
After a few days of grief, my cross compile of directfb on to an i.mx31 arm processor running linux is working. moving on to GTK... For what it is worth my configure steps for DirectFB installation into /opt were: export CPPFLAGS="-I/opt/usr/include" export CFLAGS="-I/opt/usr/include" export LDFLAGS="-L/opt/usr/lib" export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/opt/usr/lib/pkgconfig" ./configure --host=arm-linux --build=i686-pc-linux-gnu --prefix=/opt/usr --exec-prefix=/opt/usr --enable-zlib --disable-x11 --enable-fbdev --disable-sdl --disable-vnc --disable-jpeg --disable-gif cheers --- On Sat, 11/15/08, krj <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > From: krj <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: Re: [directfb-users] No system found! - message > To: directfb-users@directfb.org, "Peter Schneider" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Date: Saturday, November 15, 2008, 8:31 AM > Sounds reasonable because I compiled using shared libs.
