I'm upgrading libsdl, and I'm getting the following USE flags:

media-libs/libsdl-1.2.6-r2 [1.2.5-r2] +oss +alsa +esd -arts -nas +X +dga +xv -xinerama +fbcon +directfb +ggi +svga +aalib +opengl -noaudio -novideo -nojoystick

There's a few there that I don't quite understand...

nas - I see it's Network Audio Sound or something... I'm not going to be playing music through a network or anything, so I doubt I need this

dga - Direct Graphics Access; I use X all the time with the nVidia drivers... what's this for?

directfb - same as above, I use nVidia-ized X to play my games and things, why do I need this?

ggi - non-X video? why?

aalib - ASCII art? cool maybe, but is it a killer app for some reason?


Can someone help me out here?
