Hi all,

1) When I try to run any directfb example in dfbterm the following error occurs.

---------------------- DirectFB v0.9.20 ---------------------
             (c) 2000-2002  convergence integrated media GmbH
             (c) 2002-2003  convergence GmbH
-------------------------------------------------------------

(*) Multi Application Core. (with MMX support) (2003-08-22 12:36)
(*) DirectFB/misc/memcpy: using SSE optimized memcpy()
(!) DirectFB/Core: Could not join 'gfxcard' core!
--> General I/O failure!
(!) DirectFB/Core: Error during initialization (general I/O failure!)
(#) DirectFBError [DirectFBCreate]: General I/O failure!


how to rectify this ?

2) I asked the following question in my last mail to our mailing list.

"fbtv" (frambuffer tv from "xawtv") runs without any problem on linux console. When I try to run "fbtv" in "dfbterm" the following
error occurs.


using linux console font "/lib/kbd/console fonts/lat1.16.psfu.gz"
ioctl VT_GETSTATE: Invalid argument ( not a linux console? )


Denis Oliver Kropp replied as " It should be possible with option "vt-switching" ".

How to use vt-switching in such a way that "fbtv" runs in dfbterm as that of in the linux console?

I am working in the following environment. Red Hat Linux 8.0, vanilla Kernel-2.4.20, Intel 810E chipset with onboard graphics controller and "i810fb" framebuffer device.

With Regards,
S.Suriya Mohan.
