[mythtv] mythtv on frame buffer questions...

I'm trying to get mythtv running on a frame buffer, and here's how
I'm trying:

	- I'm using the mythtv-vid branch
	- I have qt-3.3.8 installed
	- I have DirectFB-1.0.0 installed
	- I have what I believe to be a working frame buffer driver installed
		(df_dok, df_* things work)

Questions I have are:
	- How should I configure mythtv?
		I'm presently doing '--enable-directfb --disable-x11 --disable-xv
		--disable-xrandr'   However, running mythfrontend gets a:
			mythfrontend: cannot connect to X server  when I do not have
			a DISPLAY set.
	- Should I be using qt-embedded instead of qt?  In addition to qt?

Help on this would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!
	-Dan
