Subject: [SDL] NetBSD build patch
Hi everybody,
apparently the SDL-1.2.9 source archive could not compile "as is" on
NetBSD 2.0_STABLE due to a pthread detection issue in the configure script.
I attached a small patch that can be applied to configure.in so that SDL
can be directly (i.e. without the NetBSD package manager) configured and
built successfully on NetBSD (at least on the one I tried !).
Hope this helps,
Olivier.

======================== Using SDL with PicoGUI ======================== - Originally contributed by Micah Dowty <micahjd@users.sourceforge.net> PicoGUI is a scalable GUI system with a unique architecture, primarily focused on scalability to various embedded systems. You can find more information including a FAQ at http://picogui.org To use the patch: 1. When compiling, add the "--enable-video-picogui" switch to ./configure 2. When running your program, ensure that the picogui driver for SDL is in use by setting the SDL_VIDEODRIVER environment variable to "picogui". 3. The program must also be linked to the C client library for PicoGUI (libpgui.so). If the program is being compiled with a patched SDL installed this should be done automatically. If you want to use an existing binary with PicoGUI, you can set the LD_PRELOAD environment variable to the path of your libpgui.so file. Capabilities: So far only basic functionality is provided on true color (linear16/24/32) devices. Accessing a memory mapped bitmap, updating the display, and handling mouse/keyboard input. This functionality has been tested with several applications, including mplayer, Xine, sldroids, and Abuse. TODO list: - YUV overlays will be helpful for watching video on set top boxes or other embedded devices that have some graphics acceleration hardware - Account for rotated bitmap storage in pgserver - Support for hiding or changing the cursor - The display should be centered when the SDL application is smaller than the PicoGUI panel - Fullscreen or any other special modes - Support for indexed and grayscale modes - Probably much more... --- The End ---
