Hi Gerry, I was the original author of the DirectFB UI in rdesktop and I have many changes planned for the FreeRDP DirectFB implementation to use hardware acceleration. The current one is all software rendered. DirectFB has poor support for windows and I'm not sure you can implement RemoteApp in all DirectFB devices. There is a sample application in DirectFB that shows it's window capability. It's nothing like XWindow because DirectFB is targeted for set top devices that are only full screen. The code for the channel part for remote app is so UI specific, I don't know how valuable common code will be. > BTW, isn't RemoteApp just a desktop that has been cropped? No, RemoteApp as I know it is not just clipping, it's true local(client) windows. If you are in an app and you open a Help | About diaog, you can drag it beyond the bounds of the original app. Jay ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ EditLive Enterprise is the world's most technically advanced content authoring tool.
