What you need then is something like SVGAlib (http;//svgalib.org). Only really old people like myself know that it exists. I've never heard of any Python bindings for it, but that might be where you come in. I haven't looked at SVGAlib for years, and I'm not sure about the state of the video drivers. I suggest you look at that first. You could also look at GGI (http://ggi-project.org). GGI has different output targets. IIRC, one of them is directfb. To tell you the truth I've never really used GGI. There seems to be a python wrapper for GGI, although it is fairly old. Maybe you could look at the code for some ideas. You should also be able to compile SDL to be able to use directfb as a target. If your libSDL handles it, then that should apply to wrapper libraries as well, including pygame. I've never tried running SDL apps this way, but if it works well, that would probably be your 'best' option. Lorenzo -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
