Sheesh, 110MB?! All I wanna do is look at frickin' PDF files! Anyway, it looks cool, I can't wait until it's fully released.

Have any of you guys tried this? What's it like? I must know!

I get this error when I try to compile my program. I don't really have a clue as to why it would do this.


$ make
g++ -o pong pong.cpp -L/usr/lib -lSDL -lpthread -I/usr/include/SDL -D_REENTRANT...

So I'll need to get something newer than GeForce4 Ti 4200, no?

It's built into the code, which is why I wanted to get some different samples, but I ended up falling asleep. I'll post the entire thing as an attachment. It's pretty obvious where the error code is....

I'm compiling them. The executable pops out fine enough, but it says I'm missing the extensions and segfaults. I'm going to see if I can find some other glsl programs to test out. According to that...

I have the newest nvidia drivers installed on my system. Everything is fine until I try to run a GLSL program. It says my GLSL extensions are missing. :( It's directly from the book's cd, so one...

The & comment was enough for me, thanks a lot.

I want to run two programs at exactly the same time with one shell command. How would I do this?

Yes, helvetica looks very ugly. Is there any way I can make X use a different font whenever helvetica is requested?

I tried that before, the fonts look fine until I get to one that isn't anti-alised by default. Helvetica seems to be messed up. Maybe I'll just download firefox/phoenix/firebird/whatever they're...

Certain webpages have horrible looking text. They all have rough edges and look very aliased. Does anyone know why certain fonts aren't being anti-aliased? Is there a way I can force mozilla (or...

Figured it out. I just looked at my build config from my last install and found the options I needed. I'll post my configure options below if any of you guys want an awesome mozilla install. :D
...

I tried compiling mozilla 1.7 with the xft option and everything seemed to work fine. The pages that I visit all look great, smooth text and everything. The problem I'm having is that the menus and...

I'm making it as random as I possibly can, so I'm seeding the rand function with the current time. Does that help with the randomness? What I'm actually doing is developing an experience algorithm...

Take note that I'm doing this in c.

I know that one can restrict the values of the rand function by using %, which seems to work for numbers between 0 and whatever the number. What if I wanted a...

I checked the Japanese box at the install, but the default install doesn't allow me to input Japanese, just read it. Is this a bug that you have experienced? I'm going to go manually install all the...

What mirrors (meaning what country) do you use when the ones in North America are down? I found it kind of funny that I got a constant 150KB connection from the Czeck Republic and Australia than what...

A major difference is that some files have been renamed. The only one I can see right now is that the binary name has changed and XF86Config has changed to xorg.conf.

Right now I'm doing at&t syntax, but only because my book is using it. If I were to choose, I would pick Intel.

When compiling from source, the default prefix is apparently /usr/local. So if you do the standard making process (./configure; make; make install), then it should install in /usr/local/include. If...

Actually, it's pretty fun to play around with. Eventhough I don't really know C++.

Actually, you're right. You can do either. #include <SDL/SDL.h> and #include <SDL.h> both work. I've heard that the SDL.h method is more portable, which is why I gave that way. I don't really know if...

No problem, man. If you ever need help, just post away.

As far as i know, you only need the devel and runtime files to develop SDL programs for C++. Take a look below for a super-mini-howto.

1) Make sure you have the SDL runtime and SDL devel files....
