I tried building SDL (cvs updated at 16:30 UTC today) on linux
with XFree86 4.0.1. I was able to build it with the usual
./configure and make, but building an RPM failed. The relevant
portion of the make output is included here:
Making all in x11

The other problem I had, which led me to trying the CVS version:
When using the 1.1.3 release with XFRee86 4.0.1 and the new nvidia
drivers (0.9-4) on a TNT2, I get severe tearing when using the DGA
driver. Using 4.0.0 and nvidia drivers 0.9-3 did not have this problem.

Thanks, this is a bug in the SDL Makefile, which I will remedy.

Sounds like a bug in the drivers.
See ya!

I suspected this, I was just hoping for confirmation from someone else.
It could also be configuration of XF401.
