It's not devfs shit. It's shm shit :) Apparently you don't have /dev/shm
mounted. Here's what I have in my fstab:
none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0

I don't recommend it. It will be quite slow since you'll be forced to use
sotware scaling. That's unless you also want to write code to support the
texture engine. That's just one of the reasons I decided to implement this
with DirectFB.
