Hi Andrei,

I'm interested in this. I've got a board here and have some basic stuff running based on the work John has done.

Graphics is painfully slow at the moment, but this seems to be mainly down to there being no hardware acceleration in the images that have been produced yet. It looks as if directfb (http://directfb.org/) plan to have this running shortly, so that looks like it would be worth keeping an eye on.
