Bug 3209

Summary: (Linux) No available displays error on SDL_Init
Product: SDL Reporter: cedega.git
Component: videoAssignee: Sam Lantinga <slouken>
Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE QA Contact: Sam Lantinga <slouken>
Severity: blocker    
Priority: P2 CC: philipp.wiesemann
Version: HG 2.1   
Hardware: x86_64   
OS: Linux   

Description cedega.git 2015-12-20 22:02:32 UTC 
The latest version of SDL on Mercurial fails on SDL_Init(SDL_INIT_EVERYTHING). SDL_GetError() reports that there are "No available displays".

In contrast, both 2.0.3 and 2.0.4-RC2 don't have this issue.

Seems to be the same issue as https://forums.libsdl.org/viewtopic.php?t=11603&sid=05ab82b42fb18e06433aa68ae7de4e0d

Maybe related to bug 3185.

Does it happen with SDL_INIT_VIDEO only?
Comment 2 cedega.git 2015-12-21 22:56:54 UTC 
Yeah it's the problem outlined in 3185.
