Hello all

This is my first message on this mailing list, so I am introducing myself. Nice 
to meet you!
Well, I am evaluating DirectFB for a project, and I can't seem to make the 
demos in DirectFB-examples-1.2.0 run, so it seems impossible to try what I can 
REALLY do with DirectFB, even if I am very, very attracted  to it's old-school 
framebuffer direct access style and I would REALLY like to program with it.

it thows the following error whenever a directfb app is started:

(*) DirectFB/Core: Single Application Core. (2008-10-23 01:21) 

(*) Direct/Thread: Started 'VT Switcher' (-1) [CRITICAL OTHER/OTHER 0/0] ...
(*) Direct/Thread: Started 'Keyboard Input' (-1) [INPUT OTHER/OTHER 0/0] ...
(*) DirectFB/Input: Keyboard 0.9 (directfb.org)
(!) [ 7845:    0.000] --> Caught signal 11 (at 0xb7cf8e40, invalid address) <--

(!) DirectFB/core/vt: Unable to disallocate VT!
    --> Device or resource busy
Aborted

I am on gentoo-2.6.27, and I am forced to use VESA framebuffer at the moment 
since intelfb doesn't work  in EFI machines at the moment (I use a macbook: if 
you think it's related to the usage of the generic VESA framebuffer and you 
know how can I get the intelfb working in those EFI machines, please tell me).

It's very important to me: I've googled and waited in #directfb to get help, 
but it's really hard. So please, help me guys :)

best regards

              Manuel
