Hi All,
    I am sending this mail with the hope that i would get some reply.
    I am writing a simple DirectFB application, but when i change the PixelFormat, Iget errors that CreateSurface is Not supported.
#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <directfb.h>  

static IDirectFB *dfb = NULL;
static IDirectFBSurface *primary = NULL;
static int screen_width  = 0;
static int screen_height = 0;

#define DFBCHECK(x...)                                         \
  {                                                            \
    DFBResult err = x;                                         \
                                                               \
    if (err != DFB_OK)                                         \
      {                                                        \
        fprintf( stderr, "%s <%d>:\n\t", __FILE__, __LINE__ ); \
        DirectFBErrorFatal( #x, err );                         \
      }                                                        \
  }
int main (int argc, char **argv)
{
   
  DFBSurfaceDescription dsc;

  DFBCHECK (DirectFBInit (&argc, &argv));
  DFBCHECK (DirectFBCreate (&dfb));
  DFBCHECK (dfb->SetCooperativeLevel (dfb, DFSCL_FULLSCREEN));

  dsc.flags = DSDESC_CAPS;
/*Now if I Change this line to
 
dsc.flags = DSDESC_CAPS | DSDESC_PIXELFORMAT*/

  dsc.caps  = DSCAPS_PRIMARY | DSCAPS_FLIPPING;

/*And Add this line
dsc.
pixelformat
= DSPF_A8
or
dsc.pixelformat = DSPF_ALUT44
or
, many other Pixel format then i get an error while executing the code the
dfb->CreateSurface( dfb, &dsc, &primary ) is not supported.*/


  DFBCHECK (dfb->CreateSurface( dfb, &dsc, &primary ));
  DFBCHECK (primary->GetSize (primary, &screen_width, &screen_height));
  DFBCHECK (primary->FillRectangle (primary, 0, 0, screen_width, screen_height));
  DFBCHECK (primary->SetColor (primary, 0x80, 0x80, 0xff, 0xff));
  DFBCHECK (primary->DrawLine (primary,
                                  0, screen_height / 2,
                   screen_width - 1, screen_height / 2));

  DFBCHECK (primary->Flip (primary, NULL, 0));

  sleep (5);


  primary->Release( primary );
  dfb->Release( dfb );

  return 23;
}

In this code  I have to enable Palette Support also, so how can i do this.
Can anyone help me out why i am getting this error.

regards
Animesh Bhadra
