Hi Shachar, Well, few details are missing:
* is it running on X86? * Which programming language would you rather use? * is it going to be in a window or full screen? * With or without hebrew support? Based on what you have published here (and my assumption that you're looking for full screen graphics mode) - I would suggest using frame-buffer + GTK-FB. If you can handle C++ - go with frame buffer and QT embedded. Both solutions would let you have hebrew (QT embedded 3 also has BiDi support built in), and with QT embedded, you'll have more fonts to work with. If you're looking for more then just few buttons and progress bars, you might want to take a look at using SDL (it works with almost graphics sub-system).
