Fixed bug #633 Description From Michael Stone 2008-09-25 19:27:29 (-) [reply] To determine whether a pid is occupied with the kill(pid, 0) idiom, you have to test #include <signal.h> #include <errno.h> kill(pid, 0) < 0 && errno == ESRCH not just #include <signal.h> kill(pid, 0) < 0 otherwise you get incorrect results when pid is running as a different user (causing kill(pid, 0) to return -1 + EPERM). src/audio/alsa/SDL_alsa_audio.c is certainly affected by this bug in both 1.2.13 and 1.3-trunk. It probably occurs in other places as well.

To compile and install SDL:

    1.  Run './configure; make; make install'

        If you are compiling for Windows using gcc, read the FAQ at:
        http://www.libsdl.org/faq.php?action=listentries&category=4#42

        If you are compiling using Visual C++ on Win32, you should read
        the file VisualC.html

    2.  Look at the example programs in ./test, and check out the HTML
        documentation in ./docs to see how to use the SDL library.

    3.  Join the SDL developer mailing list by sending E-mail to
    	sdl-request@libsdl.org
        and put "subscribe" in the subject of the message.

        Or alternatively you can use the web interface:
            http://www.libsdl.org/mailing-list.php

That's it!
