Re: sdl_ttf.TTF_RenderGlyph_Solid problem and workaround

Hi,

I thought that the jedi-sdl mailing list somehow "looses" half of my
emails from <michalis AT camelot.homedns.org&gt;. But now I'm using new
email <michalis.kambi AT gmail.com&gt; and some of my emails also don't
get to the list. I have a strong feeling that every email with a link
to my WWW place, www.camelot.homedns.org, is just rejected. For some
strange reason yahoo thinks that linking to www.camelot.homedns.org is
spamming... Sending now from yahoo WWW form, maybe this will work.

In any case, here's the email I'm trying to send to jedi-sdl list
since yesterday:

I forgot that this list doesn't accept attachments... The patch is here:
[http://www.camelot.homedns.org/~michalis/tmp/sdl_ttf.patch].

I also send an email to the list that I'm taking the task of compiling
Joseph's GearHead. I used to compile GearHead for Linux and FreeBSD on
[http://www.camelot.homedns.org/~michalis/gearhead_unix/], and I'll
update this to newest GH1 and GH2 versions.

I have checked in the change but commented out the define for now.

Can anyone confirm if this sdl_ttf problem occurs on Windows? If it is
Linux specific then I will add an IFDEF around the workaround define.

I hope that makes sense.

Dominique.

It was commented out by default in my patch too (there was a space
between "{&quot; and "$define"). I agree that this should be disabled by
default, as the workaround is rather brutal.

Most probably it's XWindows specific, i.e. Unix specific. {$ifdef UNIX}
would be best, probably. Judging by the "Failed loading DPMSDisable:
/usr/lib/libX11.so.6: undefined symbol: DPMSDisable" error message.
