GTK+ can be built to work on X or to work on DirectFB, a simpler hardware acceleration layer. I don't know what strategy ACCESS is using -- they said their demo was running on a mini-X server, but they haven't said which way they'll go for the final product. > Do you think it would be a step in the right direction > if I added a GTK+ UI on Linux by creating a 320x320 or 320x480 window > in the Linux GUI?

I don't think there's enough information yet to make a good decision here. -- For information on using the PalmSource Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/support/forums/
