It is great!  Great stuff!  Gunna have PVR (viewing only) in the
bedroom now.  :-)  But it is only a Celeron 366.  I think that machine
would benefit greatly from mplayerxp.  mplayer and mplayerxp seem to
be diverging though.  There is definately no dfbmga in mplayerxp.  I
might have to look into that.  :-)

Ahhhh.  I don't get that, but I am using the xfs from my distro's
XFree86 package.  In fact the only thing I replaced on my distro was
the symlink from X -> XFree86 which of course I changed to X ->
XDirectFB.

Hmmm.  A bit of poking through the config files reveals this:

I wonder if there was any good reason beyond speeding up the build to
eliminate all those font systems?  I would try adjusting those and
doing a build here but I gotta run.  Won't be back at this until
tomorrow (or tonight perhaps).  Ville, can you try setting those to a
YES and doing a build if you have time?
