uhmm, my fault. I thought I had run autoconf before building the
package. configure.in is correct, so running autoconf should fix
this problem.

there are demos distributed with GTK+ and these are also included
in our package. Check the demos and tests directories.

DirectFB only supports a single application at the moment.
This app can be multi-threaded and it can open multiple windows.
The window decorations you see on the screenshots are provided
by GTK+ and were added for the linuxfb port of GDK.
