According to gdkmouse-fb.c, gtk+ for linux-fb tries to handle mouse devices by itself, without any wrappers, like this: static gboolean gdk_fb_mouse_ps2_open (GdkFBMouse *mouse) { gint fd; guchar buf[7]; int i = 0; fd = gdk_fb_mouse_dev_open ("/dev/psaux", O_RDWR); if (fd < 0) return FALSE; Therefore, even if DirectFB works correctly on your target system, the problem won't be fixed, I'm afraid. I will lookup methods to use gtk+ for linux-fb without mouse device (but I cannot answer within a few days).
