SDL on DirectFB

 Supports:

 - Hardware YUV overlays

 - OpenGL - software only

 - 2D/3D accelerations (depends on directfb driver)

 - multiple displays

 - windows

 What you need:

 DirectFB 1.0.1, 1.2.x, 1.3.0

 Kernel-Framebuffer support: required: vesafb, radeonfb .... 

 Mesa 7.0.x	   - optional for OpenGL

 /etc/directfbrc

 This file should contain the following lines to make

 your joystick work and avoid crashes:

 ------------------------

 disable-module=joystick

 disable-module=cle266

 disable-module=cyber5k

 no-linux-input-grab

 ------------------------

 To disable to use x11 backend when DISPLAY variable is found use

 export SDL_DIRECTFB_X11_CHECK=0

 To disable the use of linux input devices, i.e. multimice/multikeyboard support,

 use

 export SDL_DIRECTFB_LINUX_INPUT=0

 To use hardware accelerated YUV-overlays for YUV-textures, use:

 export SDL_DIRECTFB_YUV_DIRECT=1

 This is disabled by default. It will only support one 

 YUV texture, namely the first. Every other YUV texture will be

 rendered in software.

 In addition, you may use (directfb-1.2.x)

 export SDL_DIRECTFB_YUV_UNDERLAY=1

 to make the YUV texture an underlay. This will make the cursor to

 be shown.
