Thanks for the response, Srinivas! I actually did find the thread you referenced below and tried that as well to no avail.
Here is my final command looks like (I also use tslib): arm-linux-gcc -o $1 $1.c -I/mnt/usb/usr/local/include/directfb -D_REENTRANT -static /mnt/usb/usr/local/lib/directfb-1.2-0/interfaces/IDirectFBFont/libidirectfbfont_default.o /mnt/usb/usr/local/lib/directfb-1.2-0/interfaces/IDirectFBFont/libidirectfbfont_ft2.o -lfreetype /mnt/usb/usr/local/lib/directfb-1.2-0/interfaces/IDirectFBImageProvider/libidirectfbimageprovider_gif.o /mnt/usb/usr/local/lib/directfb-1.2-0/interfaces/IDirectFBImageProvider/libidirectfbimageprovider_png.o -lpng -lz -lm /mnt/usb/usr/local/lib/directfb-1.2-0/interfaces/IDirectFBImageProvider/libidirectfbimageprovider_jpeg.o -ljpeg /mnt/usb/usr/local/lib/directfb-1.2-0/interfaces/IDirectFBVideoProvider/libidirectfbvideoprovider_gif.o /mnt/usb/usr/local/lib/directfb-1.2-0/inputdrivers/libdirectfb_tslib.o -lts -ldl /mnt/usb/usr/local/lib/directfb-1.2-0/inputdrivers/libdirectfb_keyboard.o /mnt/usb/usr/local/lib/directfb-1.2-0/inputdrivers/libdirectfb_linux_input.o /mnt/usb/usr/local/lib/directfb-1.2-0/systems/libdirectfb_fbdev.o /mnt/usb/usr/local/lib/directfb-1.2-0/wm/libdirectfbwm_default.o -L/mnt/usb/usr/local/lib -ldirectfb -lfusion -ldirect -lpthread It has pretty much everything I should need. The order is generated by directfb-config script. Also, looking at the initialization code I'm not sure how any of this could work (since it is only looking for .so modules). Could you please tell me which version of DFB you use for this?
