Module 'libdirectfb_matrox.so' did not register itself after loading!

Hi!

I'm having annoying problems with DirectFB, Matrox G200 and
Gentoo 
Linux. I've scoured the web and posted to numerous forums
about this 
problem, but so far I've got no responses. I also searched
the this 
mailing list's archives but found  no good explanation on
what these 
error messages mean and how to fix the problem. Generic
fbdev is working 
like a charm.

See these links for more information about my setup /
configfiles:

d.php?t=546036

Anyways, the problem is this: iIf I try launching _any_
DirectFB app 
(vdr w/ softdevice, mplayer, dfbg, dfb demo programs etc.) I
get errors 
like this:

(*) DirectFB/Core: Single Application Core. (2007-04-14
16:37)
(!) Direct/Modules: Could not open module directory 
`/usr/lib/directfb-1.0-0/systems'!
--> No such file or directory
(!) DirectFB/core/system: No system found!
(#) DirectFBError [DirectFBCreate() failed]: No (suitable) 
implementation found!

/usr/lib/directfb-1.0.0 contains only these:

gfxdrivers inputdrivers interfaces wm

If I create a link from gfxdrivers to system, I will get
this instead:

(*) DirectFB/Core: Single Application Core. (2007-04-14
16:37)
(!) Direct/Modules: Module 'libdirectfb_matrox.so' did not
register 
itself after loading! Trying default module constructor...
(!) Direct/Modules: ... even did not register after
explicitly calling 
the module constructor!
(!) DirectFB/core/system: No system found!
(#) DirectFBError [DirectFBCreate() failed]: No (suitable) 
implementation found!

So what does this "Module 'libdirectfb_matrox.so' did
not register 
itself after loading!" mean? How do I get it to
register? I noticed that 
if I compile "vanilla" DirectFB-1.0.0 from
directfb.org, I don't get 
these problems. Even the "systems" directory is
there. Is "emerge" just 
leaving some configuration option out which standard
./configure finds? 
What am I missing here?

Best regards to all,

Samuli
