Hi Guys,

Is it possible to run DirectFB on a system which doesn't have a supported
graphics driver built in.?

One of my collegues is trying to run DFB on an SH7780 with an ATI Rage XL
but gets the following error

     =======================|  DirectFB 1.1.0  |=======================
          (c) 2001-2007  The DirectFB Organization (directfb.org)
          (c) 2000-2004  Convergence (integrated media) GmbH
        ------------------------------------------------------------
(*) DirectFB/Core: Single Application Core. (2007-10-03 14:59)
(!) DirectFB/core/system: No system found!
main.c <79>:
        (#) DirectFBError [DirectFBCreate (&dfb)]: No (suitable)
implementation found!


he has compiled and configured with :
CC=sh4-linux-gcc
  LD=sh4-linux-ld

./configure
  --disable-x11 --with-gfxdrivers=none  --prefix=/home/ljones/nfs/usr/local
--host=sh4-linux

make CC=sh4-linux-gcc LD=sh4-linux-gcc

sudo make install CC=sh4-linux-gcc LD=sh4-linux-gcc

Are we being too hopeful to assume it can just use software fallbacks when
there is no suitable driver available ?
