Mike,
I do really appreciate yor work!
I'm about to leave for my long awaited holidays; I'm rebuilding
all the libs now (using gtk 2.7.0)
As soon as I get back I'll have the time and the energy to
test as much as I can.
ciao

You will need to do a clean build of both cairodfb and gtk.
I looked at some of the crashed most are caused by playing with
testgtk CList example.
Under the debugger I get the following instead of a crash. The limit
seems to be related to the size of the surface but if anyone wants to
comment/explain that would be helpful.
Cmap issues seem to be fixed but most other bugs remain.
(#) DirectFBError [gdk_display_dfb_create_surface ]: Limit has been exceeded!
testgtk: cairo-directfb-surface.c:141: cairo_directfb_surface_create:
Assertion `buffer != ((void *)0)' failed.
The next step I have planed is to review the implementation document
unimplemented function and make sure they warn if used. Then start
implementing critical ones that are used some of the instability is
comming from using a unimplemeted function that returning invalid
results then we crash later.
Right now I'm checking in the VNC Server backend.
Another quick project I'd like to do is "un Gobject" pango so it can
be used directly with directfb cairo and prepare to check its
performance is anyone lese intrested. It could be used for example in
the Lite project or other Directfb projects that need advanced text
layout.
