Subject: [SDL] First patch concerning 4.3 and refresh rates
OK, here's my first draft of the patch for the above subject.
A short explanation:
X 4.3 introduces many more modelines than older versions. This would be
fine, except it introduces many modes with the *same* resolution but
different refresh rates. And SDL won't necessarily pick the one with the
highest refresh rate.
So this patch restores SDL to X 4.2 functionality. That is, there is only
ever one refresh rate *per* resolution, and it is the highest possible.
This functionality can be totally disabled by using the environment
variable 'SDL_VIDEO_X11_USE_ALL_MODES' set equal to 1.

| 24 This library is distributed under GNU LGPL version 2, which can be | |
| 25 found in the file "COPYING". This license allows you to use SDL | |
| 26 freely in commercial programs as long as you link with the dynamic | |
| 27 library. | |
| 28 | |
| 29 The best way to learn how to use SDL is to check out the header files in | |
| 30 the "include" subdirectory and the programs in the "test" subdirectory. | |
| 31 The header files and test programs are well commented and always up to date. | |
| 32 More documentation is available in HTML format in "./docs/index.html" | |
| 33 | |
| 34 The test programs in the "test" subdirectory are in the public domain. | |
