To get sdl support, debian needs the jedi-sdl package I have packaged the jedi-sdl package, and it is ready for sponsoring [1]. It's lintian pedantic and warning free (except for upstream including pre-compiled binaries which I don't use.) jedi-sdl is also only available on i386 since they depend on an old, non-portable, and deprecated fp-units-i386 unit. I tried to find an easy replacement, but no luck so far.
I've compiled and played geardhead with SDL support. You need to build-depend on: jedi-sdl (my new package), libsdl1.2-dev, libsdl-ttf2.0-dev, and libsdl-image1.2-dev, and then compile: "fpc arena -dSDLMODE" You also need to download GearHead/Images from sourceforge and include them in the gearhead package (as described in GearHead's documentation) Let me know if you need anything else.
