this patch by Diego Pettenò <flameeyes@gentoo.org> for SDL-1.2:
The attached patch applies over latest ~arch SDL version, and allows to use the
xinerama support to launch an application full screened on the head "0".
The SDL_VIDEO_FULLSCREEN_HEAD environment variable sets the head on which the
full screen will be displayed, but if you set it to 0, the code simply ignores
it as unset. My patch changes the unset value to -1, so that the 0 value can be
used correctly. Without this, trying to get fullscreen on head 0 would get the
same result than not having xinerama enabled at all.

SDL-1.3 doesnt seem to have any code like this, but it's still good for SDL-1.2

Now we use the software path for YUV, and CoreGraphics for 2D stuff.
There are several other 10.6 fixes in here, too...now we can build a 64-bit
SDL for Snow Leopard!

It's an OS 9 API that was exposed via Carbon, but is gone in the 10.6 SDK.
OS X uses CoreAudio. We only had it in here for debugging purposes anyhow,
as SDL would never use it unless forced to with an environment variable.
It remains in SDL for OS 9, of course.

Subject: Re: [SDL] SVN doesn't compile for wince
the patch applied for Revision 4483 was seemingly not checked for side
effects.
It broke the WinCE build.
The attached patch should fix these problems. I'm not using SDL 1.2 on
CE anymore, and therefore haven't tested the patch... but at least it
compiles ;-)

This bug also needs to be fixed for SDL_GetRGB and SDL_GetRGBA (those should
not change the format of the surface either). Until this is fixed, I still need
to const_cast the format parameter in calls to those functions.

Assuming the SDL project doesn't just want to pick these up from dinput8.lib or
whatever instead, the definitions in SDL_dx5video.c should be:
const DIDATAFORMAT c_dfDIKeyboard = { sizeof(DIDATAFORMAT),
sizeof(DIOBJECTDATAFORMAT), 0x00000002, 256, 256, KBD_fmt };
const DIDATAFORMAT c_dfDIMouse = { sizeof(DIDATAFORMAT),
sizeof(DIOBJECTDATAFORMAT), 0x00000002, 16, 7, PTR_fmt };
const DIDATAFORMAT c_dfDIJoystick = { sizeof(DIDATAFORMAT),
sizeof(DIOBJECTDATAFORMAT), 0x00000001, 80, 44, JOY_fmt };
This way the call to IDirectInputDevice2_SetDataFormat in SDL_dx5events.c will
succeed on x64.

When pressing "system keys" e.g. ALT+F4 etc., the default for the windib driver
is to ignore them completely, whereas with the directx driver they're handled
(badly as it turns out).
As the windib driver is the default, I assume its behaviour is considered
correct, so the following patch makes the directx driver the same in this
regard.

As we all know SDL 1.2 doesn't handle dead keys well since one key press
potentially equals two (or more) characters. For example, on many layouts,
keying <backquote>,<space> results in <no character>,<backquote><space>. Since
the unicode member of the SDL_keysym struct only has room for one character,
only one can be returned.
On Linux, the first character is returned. On Windows however, unless the exact
number of characters generated by the keypress is 1, nothing is returned. The
following patch addresses this inconsistency.
Updated patch which includes a further fix to the handling of the numpad when
numlock is on. This further fix is courtesy Amanieu d'Antras.

First of all, thanks for committing this. Unfortunately it seems the patch has
only partially applied to wincommon/SDL_sysevents.c and currently a clean SDL
1.2 checkout doesn't build. The new patch here
(http://bugzilla.libsdl.org/attachment.cgi?id=316) fixes this.

Hi,
I'm the author of Chocolate Doom, one of the other source ports that James
mentioned. This is a patch against the current SVN version of SDL 1.2 that
fixes the bug. It has been tested and hopefully should be obviously correct
from examining the changes. I'll give a brief explanation.
When the palette is set with SDL_SetPalette, the IDirectDrawPalette_SetEntries
DirectX function is invoked. However, when this happens, a WM_PALETTECHANGED
message is sent to the window.
A WM_PALETTECHANGED message can also be received if the palette is changed for
some other reason, like if the system palette is changed. Therefore, the
palette change handler (DX5_PaletteChanged) has code to deal with this case.
It distinguishes "expected" palette changes (set with SDL_SetPalette) from
"unexpected" palette changes using the colorchange_expected variable, which is
set before calling IDirectDrawPalette_SetEntries. However, the code to set
this variable is missing in the fullscreen code path. By setting this
variable, the palette change is handled properly and the freezes go away.

I'm one of the maintainers of ioquake3.org, an updated version of the
Quake 3 engine. Relatively recently, we moved ioq3 to use SDL as a
replacement for 95% of the platform specific code that was there. On the
whole it's doing a great job but unfortunately since the move we've been
getting complaints about the quality of the mouse input on the Windows
platform to the point where for many the game is unplayable. Put in
other terms, the current stable SDL 1.2 is basically not fit for purpose
if you need high quality mouse input as you do in a first person shooter.
Over the weekend I decided to pull my finger out and actually figure out
what's going on. There are basically two major problems. Firstly, when
using the "windib" driver, mouse input is gathered via the WM_MOUSEMOVE
message. Googling for this indicates that often this is known to result
in "spurious" and/or "missing" mouse movement events; this is the
primary cause of the poor mouse input. The second problem is that the
"directx" driver does not work at all in combination with OpenGL meaning
that you can't use DirectInput if your application also uses OpenGL. In
other words you're locked into using the "windib" driver and its poor
mouse input.
In order to address these problems I've done the following:
* Remove WM_MOUSEMOVE based motion event generation and replace with
calls to GetCursorPos which seems much more reliable. In order to
achieve this I've moved mouse motion out into a separate function that
is called once per DIB_PumpEvents.
* Remove the restriction on the "directx" driver being inoperable in
combination with OpenGL. There is a bug for this issues that I've
hijacked to a certain extent
(http://bugzilla.libsdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=265). I'm the first to admit
I don't really understand why this restriction is there in the first
place. The commit message for the bug fix that introduced this
restriction (r581) isn't very elaborate and I couldn't see any other bug
tracking the issue. If anyone has more information on the bug that was
avoided by r581 it would be helpful as I/someone could then look into
addressing the problem without disabling the "directx" driver.
* I've also removed the restriction on not being allowed to use
DirectInput in windowed mode. I couldn't see any reason for this, at
least not from our perspective. I have my suspicions that it'll be
something like matching up the cursor with the mouse coordinates...
* I bumped up the DirectInput API used to version 7 in order to get
access to mouse buttons 4-7. I've had to inject a little bit of the DX7
headers into SDL there as the MinGW ones aren't up to date in this respect.

This patch provides basic support for video on the Sony PS3
Linux framebuffer. Scaling, format-conversion, and drawing is
done from the SPEs, so there is little performance impact to
PPE applications. This is by no means production quality code,
but it is a very good start and a good example of how to use the
PS3's hardware capabilities to accelerate video playback on
the box.
The driver has been verified to work with ffplay, mplayer and xine.
This piece of software has been developed at the IBM R&D Lab
in Boeblingen, Germany and is now returned to the community.
Enjoy !
