Also it will be a good alternative to X-Window System in desktop use because of its native hardware acceleration. But DirectFB unfortunately has a very poor driver/card support :( May be in the future we can have much more fast native gui for the desktop powered by Directfb. But I also consider the statement which is announced in KDE's site saying that they will never replace X-Window skeleton. Maybe Gnome will :)) -- Hakan Terzioglu > > XDirectFB: > http://www.directfb.org/news/dok/xdirectfb-1.0-rc1.xml > > -- > Michael Rothwell > e: rothwell at holly-springs.nc.us > k: http://www.rothwells.info/rothwell-public-key.txt > --
