Hello,

I am trying to install DirectFB on an ARM phone using a recent Linux
kernel (2.6.19 as far as I remember).
I have a problem with input.

Indeed, I activate linuxinput driver for my keypad (which uses
/dev/input/event0 device), and I disable keyboard module.
When I run any program using DirectFB, I have both following lines which
make me hope that everything is right:

(*) Direct/Thread: Running 'Linux Input' (INPUT, 215)...
(*) DirectFB/Input: PNX5220 Keypad 0.1 (directfb.org)

But dfbinfo returns me that he only see output for the display, and can
not see any input (whereas there is this keypad).


Because of this lack of input, most applications can't work. For
instance, I am trying to use GTK+ over DirestFB, but it returns me an error
(#) DirectFBError [gdk_display_open: GetDisplayLayer]: Requested ID not
found!

Does any one know if there is a way to let DirectFB make an input layer
only with linuxinput keypad? Or it is imposible to make an input layer
without keyboard?

Thank you

Mickael
