Dma2.0

In 1.3 the DMA 2.0, does any command need to be issued for it to take
advatage of it or will it do it on its own?

It shouldn’t.
Just you need to have Xfree 4.0

ammm…you have to set SDL_VIDEODRIVER=dga

in bash:
export SDL_VIDEODRIVER=dgaOn Fri, 9 Jun 2000, MIGUEL ANGEL BLANCH LARDIN wrote:

In my opengl app - without dga it work well
but withh tha line set - the screen flashes breifly

kicks me out with …

The DGA driver doesn’t support OpenGL - that’s one of the reasons it’s
not enabled by default.

DGA requires root access.

I get the same message as root (with su - root).

Did you compile your own copy of SDL, or use the provided
RPMs?

The RPMs do not include DGA, or at least the ones I downloaded
didn’t.

If you’re using the RPMs, just download the source to SDL,
then run “./configure --prefix=/usr”, then “make rpm”, as root.
That should leave some RPMs in /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386.
Install them using the --force option.
