This is just a guess, but: Try to start freevo (or any dfb application) *twice*. I have a kernel 2.6.10, DirectFB 0.9.21 and Freevo 1.5.3. For some reason (related to DirectFB implementation, I guess), the first dfb application never executes but ends at dfb error. The second one starts OK. Actually I have added a row /usr/local/bin/dfbswitch 720x576 in the beginning to my freevo script in /etc/init.d After that, freevo starts. It does not matter which dfb application you use. Strange, isn't it?
