Problem building SVN sdl without svga (ubuntu 7.10)

I’ve had this problem on and off and found “wierd” workarounds –
I decided to discover a repeatable sequence for this.

I’m running ubuntu 7.10 (I’m not sure which svga package I’m missing – but…
should it matter?)

Configuring without special options I get:
/bin/bash ./libtool --mode=compile gcc -g -O2 -Iinclude -I/usr/local/src/SDL/svn/trunk/SDL/include -D_GNU_SOURCE=1 -mmmx -m3dnow -msse -msse2 -fvisibility=hidden -I/usr/include/kde/artsc -pthread -I/usr/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/lib/glib-2.0/include -DXTHREADS -D_REENTRANT -DHAVE_LINUX_VERSION_H -c /usr/local/src/SDL/svn/trunk/SDL/src/video/svga/SDL_svgaevents.c -o build/SDL_svgaevents.lo

I’ll take care of that. The SVGA driver hasn’t been updated for SDL 1.3,
and I’m considering dropping it entirely unless someone actually needs it.

See ya!

I’ll take care of that. The SVGA driver hasn’t been updated for SDL 1.3,
and I’m considering dropping it entirely unless someone actually needs it.

In the stable version of Quadra, which isn’t ported to SDL and uses
its own framework (predating SDL itself! like the game, eurgh), I
phased out Svgalib a few years back maybe, but there were still
packaged version floating around that did support it. People finally
had to upgrade, and believe it or not, someone asked me where the
Svgalib support went, as they used it. :slight_smile:

I told them to try the development branch (which uses SDL) and use
SDL’s driver for Svgalib, but apparently, that might not hold
either…

Was there ever any accelerated Svgalib drivers other than ATI Mach64
