Subject: Re: [SDL] New XFree 4.3 Video Mode Patch
I have a wee amendment that moves the qsort in set_best_resolution
to only occur after failing to find an exact match only. This would
make absolutely sure we get a user set mode.
While I've never had any problems for my normal resolutions (1280x1024,
1024x768, 800x600 & 640,480) while closely examining the output from
qsort I've noticed it doesn't seem to sort the modes fully. These is
one definite wrong at 1152x768 and a few that just look wrong to me.
From a program (attached) I made to examine this more easily. X has
sorted its mode list using the same method as ours (plus frequency),
and our user modes get inserted without any other movement.
On the patch I've made I've also changed cmpmodes to sort on vertical
resolution and then horizontal. Ie vertical is now most significant
bit.

Wish list for the 1.3 development branch: * Use /etc/fb.modes, if available, like GGI does * Add mousewheel events (new unified event architecture?) * DirectInput joystick support needs to be implemented * Be able to enumerate and select available audio and video drivers * Fullscreen video mode support for MacOS X * Explicit vertical retrace wait (maybe separate from SDL_Flip?) * Shaped windows, windows without borders * Multiple windows, multiple display support * SDL_INIT_EVENTTHREAD on Windows and MacOS? * Add a timestamp to events * Use RDTSC for timer resolution on x86 hardware * Add audio input API * Add hardware accelerated scaled blit * Add hardware accelerated alpha blits * Redesign blitting architecture to allow blit plugins In the jump from 1.2 to 1.3, we should change the SDL_Rect members to int and evaluate all the rest of the datatypes. This is the only place we should do it though, since the 1.2 series should not break binary compatibility in this way. Requests: * PCM and CDROM volume control (deprecated, but possible)
