Hi,

I forgot to tell you about my system : it's a g4 with a rage128pro (agp)

Yes it does. But just before drawing the screen, I can see the console
turning blue ( it just flashes).

What's strange is that just images are affected : the page background is
ok (the same color as with links fb driver). I also tried a page with
many images (apple's :-)) and it made a segfault...

There is another thing : when I quit links, I can see some links
processes (one or two) still running. I must kill them each time I quit.
It doesn't do that when I use links fb driver.

I stopped gpm before starting links-directfb, and I still have no mouse :-(
I use devfs with devfsd, could it be that ? I have a symbolic link
/dev/usbmouse pointing to /dev/input/mice.

Well it works, and it's enabled by default on the Debian package :-)
I deactivated it since it requires root priviledge. But with
vt-switching either disabled or enabled, the program doesn't switch when
I press Alt-Right or Alt-F1. Apart from that, keyboard works fine.
