Hello.
Is it just me alone, that setting the video mode to fullscreen makes
XFree86 crash? I'm using SDL12, so the root of the problem may be:
A. incompatibility between DragonFly and SDL12
B. XFree86 driver not properly supporting my video chip
(pciconf shows that it's a CyberBlade XP Ai1)
C. some incompatibility between DragonFly and XFree86
To confirm that B. is not the case, either I have to run FreeBSD-STABLE
on this computer or somebody must say I'm not alone. As this computer
is a laptop PC and I'm reluctant to reinstall FreeBSD-STABLE, I'd really
appreciate if anyone tell me either
- Nope, fullscreen just works fine on mine.
- Yup, me to here.
First, here's an ugly patch to compile a usable sdl12 on DragonFly:
%%%

+++ Makefile Sun Sep 21 10:56:44 2003

pre-configure:
@${FIND} ${WRKSRC} -type f -name Makefile.in | ${XARGS} ${TOUCH}
+ @${FIND} ${WRKSRC} -type f \( -name '*.[ch]' -or -name configure \) | \
+ ${XARGS} ${SED} -i.back '/#include.*<dev\/usb/s/dev\//bus\//'
post-configure:
@cd ${WRKSRC} && \
%%%
Otherwise you get link error when you compile your applications.
And this is how to reproduce it:
$ gcc `sdl11-config --cflags` /usr/local/share/examples/SDL11/graywin.c \
`sdl11-config --libs`
$ ./a.out
(press enter to switch to fullscreen mode)
The first time I experienced this, I was running XFree86 built on -STABLE.
I recompiled XFree86-4-Server and XFree86-4-libraries with debug symbols,
but the gdb doesn't show me the source code corresponding to the most
interesting parts.
