I don't have first-hand experience of either (and would
appreciate hearing it from anyone who has!) but I believe that
both GTK and WxWidgets both have variations that run on bare
frame buffers.  At least, their web sites have alluded to that
possability at one time or another.  Isn't the Nokia 770
tablet's Maemo GUI an example of GTK on a frame buffer?
