[Interest] running directfb on desktop

[Donald Carr]

You can configure the directfb backEnd to an X window. I can't remember the
exact .directfbrc adjustment but it should be readily googleable. Test with
dfdok :)

I last confirmed this was working over a year ago, but I would be surprised
if it was screwed.

Yours sincerely,
Donald
