Directfb can work without X now and it has an integrated window
manager. I wonder if someone is writing a backend for directfb.
IIRC, Chad Hardin was working on something like that.
Yep, there are problem with using directfb as a back end. The main
one being that resource management is cooperatively based (AFAIK).
I could still write a directfb backend by doing it in a way much like
OS X does...Shared memory and a light weight window manager.
