Is this regarding SDL 1.2.4…? (Either way, I haven’t actually installed
1.2.4 on this machine, so I’m doing it right now.)
Hi Sam,
After doing some testing and getting a few other people to do some
testing using testgamma, we noticed that it leaves the screen in a red
hue after it finishes, thus requiring a reboot to reset the colours.
Never seen it - but then, I’ve only tested it on XFree86/Linux.
Does anyone else get this? Is this a feature of the demo and thus it
needs to be reset programmatically or is it a problem with the recent
fix? Sorry for these seem like silly questions.
Well, one would assume that the OS resets the gamma to the defaults even
if a program crashes before doing so, but that’s probably not the case.
At least, when Quake 3 crashes (doesn’t seem to like my girlfriend’s
Win98 machine, or something…), it leaves Win98 with screwed up gamma.
No reboot needed, though:
Windows:
Just pop up the display properties, touch some gamma
control and hit "Apply"...
XFree86:
No idea - never needed to fiddle with it! ;-)
If that doesn’t help, it sounds to me like you have a driver problem. (I
mean, if the driver stops responding to gamma adjustments all of a
sudden…)
