It's been awhile since I've done this, but I remember having to do a
symlink(s) to the *real* SDL .so files(lib dir somewhere) *from* the
heretic2 directory.  I think that's finally what got it going.

I'm going to be reinstalling Heretic2 this weekend (my son's coming to
spend a week) so then I can have some hard specific information for you
then.

Ahhh....you also need to have the "dynamic" linked patch in place
instead of the "static" lined one.  I've got that patch archived if you
need it btw.  The best one I could find was from somewhere in Germany,
and after I applied that and made the symlink changes, stuff started
working.

This was under 8.2, but I believe we can get the same results under
LM91.
