  23 The DirectFB port of GTK+ is an implementation of GDK (and therefore GTK+)
  24 on top of the <ulink url="http://www.directfb.org">DirectFB</ulink>
  25 libraries.

  28 <para>
  29 Like the obsolete linux-fb port of GTK+, it runs on the Linux framebuffer,
  30 but the DirectFB libraries provide additional features like hardware graphics
  31 acceleration, input device handling and abstraction and an integrated windowing
  32 system.

  37 <para>
  38 Beyond the usual GTK+ build requirements, the DirectFB backend (obviously)
  39 needs the DirectFB libraries (at least 0.9.21) and cairo compiled with
  40 DirectFB support.
