GTK
GTK

New embedded and portable windowing system, client/server interface between display hardware (mouse, keyboard, video displays) and the desktop environment that works on many hardware, including embedded devices (handhelds, set-top boxes, etc.) has been released by Xynth.
They say "The name Xynth comes from the coordinate system, which is the heart of the Xynth Windowing System design. Xynth is a LGPL licensed free software project. It aims to provide a lightweight GUI supported windowing system for Linux-based and/or real-time embedded systems." The project's range is embedded systems to desktops. It might be a good choice for embedded systems.
