  • Fixed mouse motion on MacOS X (recently broken)

Is this related to the bug I reported a few weeks ago?

Several configure tests do fail here:

configure: In function main': configure:4984: warning: implicit declaration of functionSDL_NAME’
configure:4984: parse error before `XDGAEvent’
configure: failed program was:
#line 4977 “configure”
#include “confdefs.h”

     #include <X11/Xlib.h>
     #include <XFree86/extensions/xf86dga.h>

int main() {

     SDL_NAME(XDGAEvent) xevent;

; return 0; }

Wierd, do you have the <XFree86/extensions/xf86dga.h> path somewhere else
in your include path? The version in the SDL source includes SDL_name.h,
which defines SDL_NAME()

What operating system and version of X11 are you using?

Thank you!
