I get the following compilation errors:

Configure options were as follows:

./configure --prefix=/usr --host=i686-pc-linux-gnu --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info --datadir=/usr/share --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var/lib --disable-dependency-tracking --disable-rpath --enable-events --enable-cdrom --enable-threads --enable-timers --enable-endian --enable-file --enable-cpuinfo --enable-oss --enable-alsa --disable-esd --enable-arts --disable-nas --enable-video-x11 --disable-dga --enable-video-x11-xv --disable-video-x11-xinerama --enable-video-x11-xrandr --disable-video-dga --disable-video-fbcon --disable-video-ggi --disable-video-svga --disable-video-aalib --disable-video-caca --enable-video-opengl --with-x --disable-video-x11-xme --enable-nasm --enable-video-dummy --disable-video-directfb --build=i686-pc-linux-gnu

Three patches were applied by Gentoo Linux's ebuild:

libsdl-1.2.10-PIC-hidden-symbols.patch
libsdl-1.2.10-libcaca.patch
libsdl-1.2.10-sdl-config.patch

I can attach those if needed.

I will attach my include/SDL_config.h file

Possible fix

I'm not sure if I got the relationship between SDL_VIDEO_DRIVER_X11_VIDMODE and SDL_VIDEO_DRIVER_X11_XINERAMA correct in this patch, but at least it now compiles okay!
Comment 3 Christopher Venghaus 2006-05-27 10:18:35 UTC 
I've got the same problem using the following similar configuration. Same patches applied with gentoo:
