Fixed bug #80
Date: 21 Apr 2003 17:20:20 +0100
From: Alan Swanson <swanson@uklinux.net>
Subject: [SDL] New XFree 4.3 Video Mode Patch
If you look at the unsorted list of modes returned by X, here's mine;
1280 x 1024 @ 85.0 >
1024 x 768 @ 100.3 > USER
800 x 600 @ 125.5 > SET
640 x 480 @ 124.9 >
1280 x 1024 @ 75.0 ]
1280 x 1024 @ 60.0 ]
1280 x 960 @ 85.0 ] X11
1280 x 960 @ 60.0 ] AUTO
1152 x 864 @ 75.0 ]=20
1152 x 768 @ 54.8 ]
960 x 720 @ 120.0 ]
...
640 x 400 @ 85.1 ] 256k
576 x 432 @ 150.0 ] 249k PIXEL
640 x 350 @ 85.1 ] 224k COUNT
576 x 384 @ 109.6 ] 221k
...
The user set modes come first followed by X set modes which are ordered
by decreasing number of pixels and refresh.
The reason why every other library or program not using SDL working is
due to SDL scanning the modes in reverse getting X11 provided modes
modes with the lowest refresh.

8 \fBSDL_Surface *\fBSDL_CreateRGBSurface\fP\fR(\fBUint32 flags, int width, int height, int depth, Uint32 Rmask, Uint32 Gmask, Uint32 Bmask, Uint32 Amask\fR); | |
9 .SH "DESCRIPTION" | |
10 .PP | |
11 Allocate an empty surface (must be called after \fISDL_SetVideoMode\fR) | |
12 .PP | |
13 If \fBdepth\fR is 8 bits an empty palette is allocated for the surface, otherwise a \&'packed-pixel\&' \fI\fBSDL_PixelFormat\fR\fR is created using the \fB[RGBA]mask\fR\&'s provided (see \fI\fBSDL_PixelFormat\fR\fR)\&. The \fBflags\fR specifies the type of surface that should be created, it is an OR\&'d combination of the following possible values\&. | |
14 .TP 20 | |
15 \fBSDL_SWSURFACE\fP | |
16 SDL will create the surface in system memory\&. This improves the performance of pixel level access, however you may not be able to take advantage of some types of hardware blitting\&. | |
17 .TP 20 | |
18 \fBSDL_HWSURFACE\fP | |
19 SDL will attempt to create the surface in video memory\&. This will allow SDL to take advantage of Video->Video blits (which are often accelerated)\&. | |
20 .TP 20 | |

22 This flag turns on colourkeying for blits from this surface\&. If \fBSDL_HWSURFACE\fP is also specified and colourkeyed blits are hardware-accelerated, then SDL will attempt to place the surface in video memory\&. Use \fI\fBSDL_SetColorKey\fP\fR to set or clear this flag after surface creation\&. |

25 This flag turns on alpha-blending for blits from this surface\&. If \fBSDL_HWSURFACE\fP is also specified and alpha-blending blits are hardware-accelerated, then the surface will be placed in video memory if possible\&. Use \fI\fBSDL_SetAlpha\fP\fR to set or clear this flag after surface creation\&. |

30 If an alpha-channel is specified (that is, if \fBAmask\fR is nonzero), then the \fBSDL_SRCALPHA\fP flag is automatically set\&. You may remove this flag by calling \fI\fBSDL_SetAlpha\fP\fR after surface creation\&. |
