No it does most of gtktest and gtkdemo.
I've not even tried Gimp.
I've just built the GIMP 2.2.10 against GTKDFB 2.8.3 with the following
configure options to simplify the compile process (i suppose a
fully-featured GIMP can be built too ) that went smooth.
./configure --prefix=/home/attilio/gimp --without-x --without-libtiff
--without-libmng --without-libexif --without-aa --without-gtkhtml2
--without-librsvg --without-lcms --disable-print
Even if at runtime the GIMP produces a lot of warnings and sometimes
crashes, it seems GTKDFB is actually suitable to build and run such a
complex app [1] :)
Luckily, the debian graphical installer [2] is a much simpler GTK app
that works well even with the old GTKDFB 2.0.9 port (we plan to switch
to a more recent GTKDFB version as soon as possible, maybe after the
Extremadura meeting [3] where we hope we'll be able to fix some bugs in
both GTKDFB and DFB).
