Try the internet archive? http://web.archive.org/web/20080401005014/http://home.woh.rr.com/nwmovies/libsdl.html The solution apparently involves a patch for SDL, but the latest patch there is for SDL 1.2.11, and I have 1.2.13 in Debian/sid. I hope it's not too hard to update. --Ken _______________________________________________ vox-tech mailing list [email protected] http://lists.lugod.org/mailman/listinfo/vox-tech
