			What about:
			Xfbdev mythbackend:/mythfrontend

			or is this bullshit ?

New page

Here are the steps I did to compile some apps with directfb support. I'm sure it can be streamlined.

Remember do not try to run these apps on your NMT device

1. Download DirectFB 1.0.1 from directfb.org

http://directfb.org/downloads/Core/DirectFB-1.0.1.tar.gz

2. Extract archive and enter the folder

3. Path to use the cross tool

PATH=/usr/local/mips/mipsel-linux-uclibc/bin/:$PATH

4. Configure as follows, you might need to disable some other libraries if you don't want to cross compile things you have installed (change --build as necessary)

./configure --target=mipsel-linux-uclibc --host=mipsel-linux-uclibc --enable-x11=no --enable-png=no build=i386

5. Make the target

make LDFLAGS=-Wl,--dynamic-linker,/lib/ld-uClibc.so.0

This fails but I noticed that the apps in tools built which is what I want

6.The tool apps are in tools/.libs

7.run "file dfbinfo" to check your cross

dfbinfo: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, MIPS, MIPS-I version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), not stripped

8. Do not test or run dfbinfo from you NMT and if you don't run it at NTSC SD resolution this what you wouldn't use

/ # /sharename/dfbinfo --dfb:fbdev=/dev/em8xxx0,mode=720x480
