Message: 55194 Dear all,

I'm doing my work of libSDL and I have three questions need help, thanks:)

1. libSDL can only work with FDPIC format? If use FLAT, compiles well but can't run.

2. I add the line "export SDL_NOMOUSE=1" in my "rc" files and it has no effect. The "profile" files doesn't execute at all in the initialization. Then how can I export an environment in the init files?

3. This is an indisposition of libSDL. The mouse cursor is always in the top-left of the screen. How can I erase this icon? Modify the source code of libSDL or which APIs or environment?

Thanks very much. Any help would be appreciated.

Hmm - for now stick with fdpic - that is the only way I have tested it. I will have a look at flat later.

the /etc/rc process terminates when the script is finished, so that is not the right way to set things for your initial process (unless you are starting your SDL application in that context).

Yeah, that has bugged me to - (but I never bothered to look) you might ask on the SDL mailing list.
