My current favorite is SDL;
http://www.libsdl.org
Nice and clean API, handy utility functions, a bunch of nice optional
extension libraries (for audio mixing, loading images in various formats,
rendering graphics primitives and truetype fonts etc), and the ability to get
pretty good performance from most display targets available. Portability to a
bunch of other platforms can be considered as a bonus "backup plan", should
you ever have to mess with some other OS.
