Hi Dennis, Thanks for your reply. I would have replied sooned but I was on holidays. My system has 256MB of memory. I did what you said and here is the output when I start a small direcfb application which draws two rectangles and some text to screen:

I am a concerned about the "Davinci/OSD: FBIO_SETPOS (fb0 - 0,0) failed! --> Bad address" lines. Could you please explain what they mean? If you want I can attach the two images(One without using directfbrc and one with using it) Thanks again for your help.
