MythTV is a PVR application that can display to the frame buffer via
QT/Embedded.  I want it to display it on my TV through my G400's CRTC2
output however.  But AFAIK, QT Embedded writes directly to /dev/fb0 and
is not "DirectFB enabled".  There is a portion (the video playing
portion) that is DirectFB enabled and would benefit greatly from being
able to use DirectFB's Matrox G400 CRTC2 support.

Is there any way I can put the framebuffer into CRTC2 TV-output mode
before the QT/Embedded application starts to use /dev/fb0 and have it
remain that way while QT/Embedded does it's thing?

Of course, ideally QT(/Embedded) could use DirectFB directly, but sadly
I don't think this is the case.  I do know about the DirectFB-QT project
but sadly it seems abandoned.

Thots?
