I could give DirectFB a try, but there's something I would like to know if you can answer: Is DirectFB seen as an X replacement ? If yes, is it possible to run X programs under DirectFB or do they need a rewrite for the rendering part of the code ? Is it possible to run X and DirectFB at the same time and switch from one to another using chvt ? I ask this because my goal for this cab is to run as many emulators as possible (xmame, xmess, uae, ...) and of course I plan to do a front-end for all this. As i'm not very experienced with C/SDL (did only one project in C using SDL) I planned to do my front-end using pygame (Python/SDL) in order to make my life easier and decrease the development time. So, if it's not possible to run other emulators + Pygame under DirectFB, I even't won't try this alternative. _______________________________________________ Xmame mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://toybox.twisted.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/xmame
