embedded Gtk without X

[Andres Gonzalez <gonzo agoralabs com>]

I am working on an embedded linux project and need to display video 
directly to the screen. I have the prototype application working under 
normal desktop Gtk/Gnome but now I have to port it to a system that is 
not going to run X.

Is GtkFB what I need?   What is the current status of GtkFB?

What is DirectFB and how does it differ from GtkFB?

I am assuming that I have to access the frame buffer directly, but any 
other guidance would be appreciated.

Thanks,

-Andres
