4 | By default SDL will only link against glibc, the rest of the features will be | ||
5 | enabled dynamically at runtime depending on the available features on the target | ||
6 | system. So, for example if you built SDL with XRandR support and the target | ||
7 | system does not have the XRandR libraries installed, it will be disabled | ||
8 | at runtime, and you won't get a missing library error, at least with the | ||
9 | default configuration parameters. | ||

36 | |||
37 | NOTES: | ||
38 | - This includes all the audio targets except arts and esd, because Ubuntu | ||
39 | (and/or Debian) pulled their packages, but in theory SDL still supports them. | ||
40 | The sndio audio target is also unavailable on Fedora. | ||
41 | - libsamplerate0-dev lets SDL optionally link to libresamplerate at runtime | ||
42 | for higher-quality audio resampling. SDL will work without it if the library | ||
43 | is missing, so it's safe to build in support even if the end user doesn't | ||
44 | have this library installed. | ||
45 | - DirectFB isn't included because the configure script (currently) fails to find | ||
46 | it at all. You can do "sudo apt-get install libdirectfb-dev" and fix the | ||
47 | configure script to include DirectFB support. Send patches. :) | ||

50 | Joystick does not work | ||
51 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ||
52 | |||
53 | If you compiled or are using a version of SDL with udev support (and you should!) | ||
54 | there's a few issues that may cause SDL to fail to detect your joystick. To | ||
55 | debug this, start by installing the evtest utility. On Ubuntu/Debian: | ||
56 | |||
57 | sudo apt-get install evtest | ||
58 | |||
59 | Then run: | ||
60 | |||
61 | sudo evtest | ||
62 | |||
63 | You'll hopefully see your joystick listed along with a name like "/dev/input/eventXX" | ||
64 | Now run: | ||
65 | |||
66 | cat /dev/input/event/XX | ||
67 | |||
68 | If you get a permission error, you need to set a udev rule to change the mode of | ||
69 | your device (see below) | ||
70 | |||
71 | Also, try: | ||
72 | |||
73 | sudo udevadm info --query=all --name=input/eventXX | ||
74 | |||
75 | If you see a line stating ID_INPUT_JOYSTICK=1, great, if you don't see it, | ||
76 | you need to set up an udev rule to force this variable. | ||
77 | |||
78 | A combined rule for the Saitek Pro Flight Rudder Pedals to fix both issues looks | ||
79 | like: | ||
80 | |||
81 | SUBSYSTEM=="input", ATTRS{idProduct}=="0763", ATTRS{idVendor}=="06a3", MODE="0666", ENV{ID_INPUT_JOYSTICK}="1" | ||
82 | SUBSYSTEM=="input", ATTRS{idProduct}=="0764", ATTRS{idVendor}=="06a3", MODE="0666", ENV{ID_INPUT_JOYSTICK}="1" | ||
83 | |||
84 | You can set up similar rules for your device by changing the values listed in | ||
85 | idProduct and idVendor. To obtain these values, try: | ||
86 | |||
87 | sudo udevadm info -a --name=input/eventXX | grep idVendor | ||
88 | sudo udevadm info -a --name=input/eventXX | grep idProduct | ||
89 | |||
90 | If multiple values come up for each of these, the one you want is the first one of each. | ||
91 | |||
92 | On other systems which ship with an older udev (such as CentOS), you may need | ||
93 | to set up a rule such as: | ||
94 | |||
95 | SUBSYSTEM=="input", ENV{ID_CLASS}=="joystick", ENV{ID_INPUT_JOYSTICK}="1" | ||
96 | |||
