Hi,
I have uploaded to ftp modified version vo_directfb.

Whats are benefits of this vo?
You can get some acceleration for second head of MGA with framebuffer or
can use MGA BES without mga_vid driver.
Hopefully acceleration should work with other cards supported by
DirectFB but I couldn't test this.

In order to get this vo working are needed some changes to mplayer
source:
-adding proper entry to video_out.c for vo_directfb
-adding -ldirectfb to makefile

You also need installed DirectFB 0.9.7 with small change in sourcecode:
In file fbdev.c delete line 120 which contains string: fbdev->fd = open(
"/dev/fb0", O_RDWR );
This is not needed if you use just default framebuffer device (but
needed for second head)
