I've tried to compile with SDL Support but now it only barfs:
"Fatal error: exception Sdl.SDL_init_exception("Unable to open a console 
terminal")"
(It sure runs as root but bails out with the  "you-are-root security exit")
I'll have to check the permissions to the virtual console i guess.

Querying the image by Liquidsap ( as root) with -r always only gives:
kind="{audio=0+;video=0+;midi=0+}"
So it's actually not recognising any image format.
Since i've tried gif, tif, ppm, pnm, jpeg.
It works for ogg or mp3 files.

Sure. I'm happy to help.
