Date: Sat, 15 Jan 2005 02:01:51 +0000 (UTC) From: jimrandomh Subject: [SDL] Re: Modifier keys pressed during initialization stick I wrote a simple test program which initializes SDL, prints the SDL version number, then prints any keydown and keyup events with their modifiers. (Source code below). Compilation was done using Visual Studio 6, release mode. My test sequence was: Start a command prompt. Type the name of the test program. shift down enter down (program starts) Wait for window to appear enter up shift up spacebar down spacebar up Under Windows 98, the output was correct: SDL 1.2.8 left shift down shift-return down shift-return up left shift up space down space up Under Windows 2000 and under Windows XP, the output was: SDL 1.2.8 shift-space down shift-space up Since shift was not held at the time space was pressed, this is incorrect. Similar results were observed with launching in different ways (including double-clicking in Windows Explorer), so it does not depend on the launching terminal.

  =================================================================
  Patch version 0.9 of SDL(Simple DirectMedia Layer) for Nano-X API
  =================================================================
  
  Authors: Hsieh-Fu Tsai, clare@setabox.com
           Greg Haerr, greg@censoft.com

  This patch is against SDL version 1.2.4.
  It enhances previous patch 0.8 by providing direct framebuffer
  access as well as dynamic hardware pixel type support, not
  requiring a compile-time option setting for different framebuffer
  modes.
  Tested against Microwindows version 0.89pre9.

  Older Microwindows versions
  ===========================
  If running on a version older than Microwindows 0.89pre9,
  the following items might need to be patched in Microwindows.

  1. Patch src/nanox/client.c::GrClose()
  It fixes the client side GrClose(). In the original version, 
  GrOpen() can only be called once. When the GrOpen() is called at 
  the second time, the program will terminate. In order to prevent
  this situation, we need to insert "nxSocket = -1" after 
  "close(nxSocket)" in GrClose(). If you do not have this problem,
  you may skip this step. 

  2. Patch src/nanox/clientfb.c to return absolute x,y coordinates
  when using GrGetWindowFBInfo().  Copy the version 0.89pre9
  of src/nanox/clientfb.c to your system, or configure
  using --disable-nanox-direct-fb.

  =============
  Quick Install 
  =============

  1. ./configure --disable-video-x11 --disable-video-fbcon \ 
       --enable-video-nanox \ 
       --with-nanox-pixel-type=[rgb/0888/888/565/555/332/pal] 
  2. make clean 
  3. make 
  4. make install (as root) 

  ============
  Nitty-gritty 
  ============

  --enable-nanox-direct-fb       Use direct framebuffer access
  --enable-nanox-debug           Show debug messages 
  --enable-nanox-share-memory    Use shared-memory to speed up 

  When running multi-threaded applications using SDL, such
  as SMPEG, set THREADSAFE=Y in Microwindows' config file,
  to enable GrXXX() system call critical section support.

  =============================================
  Some programs can be used to test this patch.

  =========
  Todo List 
  =========

  1. Create hardware surface
  2. Create YUVOverlay on hardware
  3. Use OpenGL
  4. Gamma correction
  5. Hide/Change mouse pointer
  6. Better window movement control with direct fb access
  7. Palette handling in 8bpp could be improved
