A query

Hi,
I am using the SDL library SDL-1.2, for a GUI application on PPC405GP using
a embedded linux port. The development kit that is available with this port
has all the compiling and the linking tools.
I need to build the SDL library from the source using these tools. Do i need
to have the X11 driver libraries for successfully building the SDL library?.
Any help on cross-compilation from i686-linux-gnu to powerpc for SDL library
would be highly appreciated?.

–Thanks

You don’t need X11.

When building SDL, you run a configure script:

./configure --disable-video-x11

(You’ll probably want to disable just about everything for an embedded
system, except probably the framebuffer console (–enable-video-fbcon),
and maybe --enable-oss if the embedded Linux environment has /dev/dsp
available for audio output).
