Well, ... I did some try with my xgi card, and even though i disabled hardware acceleration, this is a nogo. I ended up in a messed up text terminal (with black blocks and รข chars for the box borders and shadow). So, it is clear that directfb needs not only the per-card drivers for acceleration, but also for normal usage. That said, i couldn't find any kind of directfb log or something, so maybe the above guess was bad, and something else funny happened, since that was with a 2.6.18 kernel. Friendly, Sven Luther
