Yup Matrox... lovely 2D card IMHO. From the DirectFB homepage, they
state support for Matrox G200/G400, ATI128, Voodoo 3, NeoMagic and
CyberPro cards although there is some acceleration for nVidia RIVA TNT
cards hidden in the source.

I'm doing the DirectFB thing for 2 reasons mainly.

1) Xine on a STB playing DVDs would be nice.
2) Xine + Linux + DirectFB on a single boot floppy would be just very
cool :)
3) Some people prefer VTs to X.

... 3 reasons!
