InitLayer gives the default for new contexts, but the initial context (shared context) is controlled by some automation, unless you set some values in the directfbrc. The automatic buffer mode depends on hardware acceleration. This only happened for the primary layer in 1.0.x, but in 1.2.x you can have DirectFB initialize all layers by using "init-layer = <id>" before using the layer runtime options in the directfbrc. The code moved from src/directfb.c (apply_configuration) to src/idirectfb.c (InitLayers).
