Hello, my name is Dan Rempe. I just started programming with SDL. Itseems really cool, but i have one problem that i haven’t been able to
solve. I’m sure you can help. If i run an 8-bit X Server and run my SDL
program in fullscreen mode, the colors are completely wrong.
Okay, this is fixed in the latest CVS snapshot, available from:
http://www.devolution.com/~slouken/SDL/download.html
Thanks for the clue! I actually ran into the same problem here tonight!
