enable the "directfb" USE flag. It will pull in a ton of new packages if |
| 13 |
they are not already there, and do take note of the warning about new |
| 14 |
versions of DirectFB breaking old ones. You'll need to run |
| 15 |
revdep-rebuild after a DirectFB update just in case - it's caught me |
| 16 |
out several times. |

But, the results are well worth it. |
