Fixed bug #899 Jeremiah Morris 2009-12-09 16:23:50 PST Re-enable mouseLocation workaround on 10.4, 10.5 OS X systems before 10.6 have a bug with [NSEvent mouseLocation] if the screen resolution changes. SDL_QuartzVideo.m contains a workaround for this bug, but it was placed inside an #ifdef in revision 4762. The comment reads, "I'm gambling they fixed this by 10.4." After seeing this bug on several Tiger and Leopard systems (both PPC and Intel), I can confirm that it's not fixed until 10.6. The workaround doesn't compile for x86_64/10.6, so I can understand why it was segregated, but it needs to remain in place for the i386 and ppc versions. The workaround causes no problems under 10.6, even though it's not necessary there. Patch is attached with one method of keeping the workaround active on the systems that need it.

==============================================================================
Using the Simple DirectMedia Layer with MacOS 7,8,9 on PPC
==============================================================================

These instructions are for people using the Apple MPW environment:
http://developer.apple.com/tools/mpw-tools/

CodeWarrior projects are available in the CWprojects directory.

==============================================================================
I.  Building the Simple DirectMedia Layer libraries:
    (This step isn't necessary if you have the SDL binary distribution)

  First, unpack the MPWmake.sea.hqx archive and move SDL.make into the
  SDL directory.

  Start MPW

  Set the current directory within MPW to the SDL toplevel directory.

  Build "SDL"  (Type Command-B and enter "SDL" in the dialog)

  If everything compiles successfully, you now have the PPC libraries
  "SDL" and "SDLmain.o" in the 'lib' subdirectory.

==============================================================================
II. Building the Simple DirectMedia Layer test programs:

  First, unpack the MPWmake.sea.hqx archive, move the new rsrc directory to
  the main SDL directory, and move the makefiles in the new test subdirectory
  to the SDL 'test' subdirectory.

  Start MPW

  Set the current directory within MPW to the SDL 'test' subdirectory.

  Build the programs that have an associated MPW makefile (file ending
  with .make), including "testwin", "testalpha", and "graywin".

  Copy the SDL library file into the test directory, and run!

==============================================================================
III. Building the Simple DirectMedia Layer demo programs:

  Copy one of the test program Makefiles to the demo directory
  and modify it to match the sources in the demo.

==============================================================================
IV.  Enjoy! :)

  If you have a project you'd like me to know about, or want to ask questions,
  go ahead and join the SDL developer's mailing list by sending e-mail to:

	sdl-request@libsdl.org

  and put "subscribe" into the subject of the message. Or alternatively you
  can use the web interface:
