735 <H2> 81 <BLOCKQUOTE>
736 Major changes since SDL 0.5: 82 <P>
737 </H2> 83 The X11 libraries are dynamically loaded at runtime by default. This allows the distributed version of SDL to run on systems without X11 libraries installed.
738 <UL> 84 <P>
739 <LI> Ported to Solaris 2.6 85 The XiG XME extension code is now included in the X11 video driver by default.
740 <LI> Added XFree86 Direct Graphic Access support 86 <P>
741 <LI> Supports LinuxPPC without threads 87 XRandR support for video mode switching has been added to the X11 driver, but is disabled because of undesired interactions with window managers. You can enable this by setting the environment variable SDL_VIDEO_X11_XRANDR to 1.
742 <LI> Completely rewritten video/surface API -- see SDL_video.h 88 <P>
743 <LI> Completely rewritten event API 89 Xinerama multi-head displays are properly handled now, and the SDL_VIDEO_FULLSCREEN_HEAD environment variable can be used to select the screen used for fullscreen video modes. Note that changing the video modes only works on screen 0.
744 <LI> Optimized black-white cursor creation 90 <P>
745 <LI> Added support for run-length-encoded colorkeying 91 XVidMode video modes are now sorted so they maintain the refresh rates specified in the X11 configuration file.
746 <LI> Added support for hardware accelerated blits 92 <P>
747 <LI> Added support for blitting from 1-bit surfaces (bitmaps) 93 SDL windows are no longer transparent in X11 compositing systems like XGL.

752 <LI> Added precalculated alpha blending acceleration 98 <P>
753 <LI> Added function to return current time in milliseconds 99 The screensaver and DPMS monitor blanking are disabled while SDL games are running under the X11 and DGA video drivers. This behavior will be formalized and selectable in SDL 1.3.
754 <LI> New event type SDL_ACTIVEEVENT, to detect iconification 100 <P>
755 <LI> New event type SDL_SYSWMEVENT, for custom window hooks 101 Fixed a bug preventing stereo OpenGL contexts from being selected on the X11 driver.
756 <LI> Added a platform dependent function to get window handle 102 <P>
757 <LI> Added a function to check the run-time version of SDL 103 The DGA video driver now waits for pending blits involving surfaces before they are freed. This prevents display oddities when using SDL_DisplayFormat() to convert many images.
758 <LI> Added periodic timer support at 10 ms resolution 104 <P>
759 <LI> Added support for the SDL_DEBUG environment variable 105 The framebuffer console video driver now has a parser for /etc/fb.modes for improved video mode handling.
760 <LI> Miscellaneous internal cleanups 106 <P>
761 </UL> 107 The framebuffer console video driver now allows asynchronous VT switching, and restores the full contents of the screen when switched back.
108 <P>
109 The framebuffer console now uses CTRL-ALT-FN to switch virtual terminals, to avoid collisions with application key bindings.
110 <P>
111 The framebuffer console input driver correctly sets IMPS/2 mode for wheel mice. It also properly detects when gpm is in IMPS/2 protocol mode, or passing raw protocol from an IMPS/2 mouse.
112 <P>
113 The SVGAlib video driver now has support for banked (non-linear) video modes.
114 <P>
115 A video driver for OpenBSD on the Sharp Zaurus has been contributed by Staffan Ulfberg. See the file README.wscons in the SDL source distribution for details.
116 <P>
117 Many patches have been incorporated from *BSD ports.
