I want to use a specific driver

SDL Development

Hello,

I use SDL-1.2.4 with Linux and SDL use x11 driver
but I want to use another driver (dga or DirectFB) for speed reason but
I don’t found how I can do that. (I do a rgrep -riB “dga”
~/SDL1.2/docs/)

export SDL_VIDEODRIVER=dga

use dga2 for XFree86 4.1

you can putenv this variable to set it in the program for on the fly driver changes I believe.–
