[mythtv] Compiling DirectFB on 0.20-fixes

Hello

  I'm about to try compiling mythtv-0.20-fixes with DirectFB on my PS3.
The wiki page on this focuses on 0.19; I went to make some of the code
changes it recommends and it looks like this is no longer necessary, the
DirectFB stuff should now be handled proeprly with ./configure switches.

  Is this correct?  Do I still have to make any code changes to get a
working DirectFB system?

  Will things work if I use the recommended "./configure
--enable-directfb --disable-x11 --disable-xv", or should I add / remove
flags here?

  The PS3 isn't the best compiling platform, it takes a good 2 hours to
build all of MythTV.  I'd like to avoid trial and error if I can ;)
I'll create a wiki page dedicated to this topic when I get a working
procedure.

thanks
  Jeff
