I got OS X port running on Tiger on my laptop under SDL. (I think). Unfortunately, I THOUGHT I had a better way of doing things (my original WIKI entry was how I did it on my laptop) and have been unable to replicate my success on my desktop. :( Bottom line - it still works. But a small caveat: I'm not sure it is the best way to go when using OS X as there are a lot of goodies in the OS X API that are not present in Linux (at the moment).
