this problem definitely seems to be related to SDL. i suffer from lagged
mouse in every single dri-available game i've tried in ports, be it even
zsnes (the gui interface, mouse lags) to quake2, prboom set to gl mode, the
list goes on. all these games seem to have SDL in common. there is only ONE
opengl game that i can play with no mouse lag-- its not in ports (yet, i'm
working on it), and that is tyr-quake. tyr-quake is a very stable quake1
codebase that is conservative to maintain 100% original look and feel, and
surprise surprise it seems to not use sdl at all, especially for input.
