I'm new too, but I don't think that Mesa is set up to use DirectFB as a back end. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong. I know you can use the DirectFBGL extension to write a DirectFB app that can use OpenGL, but that doesn't sound like what you want.

I just wanted to know, is this the error which is causing me the problem, since mesa demands the kernel version of 2.6.28 as a pre-requisite. plz help me in tracing this problem.. iam buged here only since from many days.. thanks in advance ---------------- regards suma
