Instead of the GNOME screensaver respecting the MIT-SCREEN-SAVER extension
and registering for the screensaver idle event, it uses a completely different
control mechanism. Our alternatives are to use dbus (very complicated) or
this really painful hack.
- use SDL_getenv, not getenv ...
- no more support for 0.9.25 - not even mentioned any longer on directfb.org
- fix fullscreen issues
- add a simple window manager unless the directfb team comes up with a working wm.
The driver has support for a very, very basic window manager you may
want to use when runnning with "wm=default". Use
export SDL_DIRECTFB_WM=1
to enable basic window borders including icon support. In order to have the window title rendered,
you need to have the following font installed:
/usr/share/fonts/truetype/freefont/FreeSans.ttf
* Some math functions become intrinsic in release mode, so we need to
convert all the math functions into SDL math functions, like we did
with the stdlib functions.
* Constant initializers of 8-bit values become calls to memset() in
release mode, but memset() itself is an intrinsic when explicitly
called. So we'll just explicitly call memset() in those cases.

Subject: SDL1.3 DirectFB patches
The attached contains the following directfb changes:
- Dynamic loading of libdirectfb.so. This may to turned off as well in configure
- Use linux-input by default. May be switched off by environment variable.
- Added some code which will use directfb's x11 backend when DISPLAY is set.

Just wanted to point out that the patch is available at

I hereby grant Sam Lantinga an irrevocable non-exclusive distribution
license to this patch to do with as he wishes.
If there are other mice, they should show up in the device list, and
we want to report events from those devices instead of the core events.
However, if XInput isn't supported or we can't find other mice in the
device list, we'll add the core pointer and interpret normal mouse events.
