SDL-cvs and XFree86 extension problem

SDL Development
1

Hello,

I always build SDL in a different directory, to not pollute the original
source tree, and to compile it for several targets (Linux and Atari) from
the same source tree. Unfortunately, a little problem came when compiling
the linux version: included Xfree includes in the SDL archive are not
found. It does not work for me (maybe a spelling error), but you get the
idea for what is needed. Hope to get a fixed CVS version soon…

Thanks, your fix is now in CVS.

See ya!

… and still does not work. Luckily, in CheckNasm function, the correct
spelling is done, so here is the RIGHT fix:

So everybody learning how to do correct configure scripts (like me),
$top_srcdir is only for Makefile.am scripts. Use $srcdir in the
configure.in script. $top_srcdir is used in the configure.in script to
generate the CFLAGS variable for Makefile scripts.

Now I tested it, and it works. It was very annoying to not have
fullscreen modes anymore under X11…–
