Hi,

I'm building GTK+ with directfb support in order to test building
Cream-Browser on embedded system (like ARM architecture, OpenPandora <
http://www.openpandora.org/ >, etc...).

I may need someone who have one of those machines to test it :)

My friend, you have a test subject right here... just let me know what I need to do... :D

Hi

I just discovered that GTK+-3.0 doesn't have any support of DirectFB.
So I'm building GTK+-2.0 with only DirectFB backend in order to test
if Cream-Browser build correctly with this library.

My recent modifications on the build system (which don't change
anything about the usage, only added some features) aren't finished. I
have to add the cross-compiling in order to build it correctly on
other architectures (ie: OpenPandora as asked before).

DirectFB support is done.

Cream-Browser was builded and runned with success and no segmentation
fault. No modifications needed just build.

Here is a how-to : https://github.com/linkdd/cream-browser/wiki/Directfb-support

For the moment, if you want Cream-Browser on ARM architectures, you
will have to build it natively on because cross-compiling isn't for
now.
