DGA Mouse Support?

I think this was discussed here before, but I don’t remember. Is there
a way to get the mouse to work in full screen mode?

If it doesn’t work, there may be a bug in your X server.
If this is the case, removing the XF86DGADirectMouse flag from the line
in src/linux/x11/SDL_sysvideo.c setting the DGA access may fix your problem.
This is common enough that the latest CVS version actually has a CPP flag
to enable this fix: NO_DIRECTMOUSE

Please let me know if this fixes your problem.

Yeah, that worked. The movement is a little slow, but that’s not your
fault :slight_smile:
Thanks!
