Hi all, just subscribed to this list and I'm a DirectFB newbie, so 
please be gentle :)

To start with a quick description of the system I'm running:
AMD K6-2 400Mhz
RedHat 7.1, running kernel 2.4.2-2
Voodoo 3000 video card

My problems:

1) DirectFB compilation

I downloaded avifile and installed it. Going by rpm, I have freetype 
2.0.1-4 installed, along with the devel package. I run configure on 
DirectFB and I receive these messages:

configure: warning: *** freetype-config not found -- FreeType font 
provider will not be built.
checking for avifile-config... (cached) no
configure: warning: *** avifile-config not found -- AVI media provider 
will not be built.
checking for FlashGetInfo in -lflash... (cached) no

 From the command line I can run both freetype-config and 
avifile-config, but configure can't seem to see them. I also tried 
copying avifile-config into the DirectFB directory but still not luck.
Help!

2) Running any DirectFB program

Whenever I run a DirectFB program I receive the warning:

(!) DirectFB/core/fbdev: Panning display failed!
     --> Invalid argument

Now I read in a previous message to this mailing list something about 
'yspan'? There was just that line, and so a newbie like myself has no 
idea what its talking about!

Cheers,

  Oliver Tupman.
