All in this case means, ( I think ), that gtk can run on a framebuffer device without X as well as under X11, ( and GNOME / KDE ) since that toolkit has a quite solid abstraction. As discussed previously however, gtk ( 2 ) has a ton of dependencies since there has not been any work to reduce them, thus it is BIG and SLOW compared to more light weight approaches. Using a toolkit built on top of Xt on the on the other hand trades some portability, ( need's X11 ), for speed, size and a bit more low level handling of the callbacks and action tables. It is possible to have some toolkits run on 'raw' graphics devices though. / Lars Segerlund. On Mon, 15 Nov 2004 11:00:12 +0000 robert w hall <bobh@n-cantrell.demon.co.uk> wrote:

There has been a lot of talk about toolkits and dillo, and I had a small idea. What about using lesstif ( Motif ) for dillo ? It's fairly small ( you can bring only the widgets you need ) and if done with some care a statically linked dillo would not be bloated.
Suggest: use directfb combined with gtk eventually
will that translate easily across all machine architectures?
