Hi, just one query on this:

2008/9/15 Daniel Benoy <daniel at benoy.name>:
> You should be able to make software that runs on all the distributions, because they have X11 in common.  If it can run on a Linux X11 PC with one mouse button and at 480x640, it should be able to run on any distribution in the forseeable future.

I think I read somewhere that Qtopia doesn't use X11, and instead
writes direct to the framebuffer - which I think would make it an
exception to the above statement.  Is that correct?

Regards,
        Neil
