So, for example if you built SDL with Xinerama support and the target +system does not have the Xinerama libraries installed, it will be disabled +at runtime, and you won't get a missing library error, at least with the +default configuration parameters. + + +Build Dependencies +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Ubuntu 20.04, all available features enabled: + + sudo apt-get install build-essential git make cmake autoconf automake \ + libtool pkg-config libasound2-dev libpulse-dev libaudio-dev libjack-dev \ + libx11-dev libxext-dev libxrandr-dev libxcursor-dev libxi-dev \ + libxinerama-dev libxxf86vm-dev libxss-dev libgl1-mesa-dev libdbus-1-dev \ + libudev-dev libgles2-mesa-dev libegl1-mesa-dev libibus-1.0-dev \ + fcitx-libs-dev libsamplerate0-dev libsndio-dev libwayland-dev \ + libxkbcommon-dev libdrm-dev libgbm-dev + +NOTES: +- This includes all the audio targets except arts and esd, because Ubuntu + (and/or Debian) pulled their packages, but in theory SDL still supports them. +- libsamplerate0-dev lets SDL optionally link to libresamplerate at runtime + for higher-quality audio resampling. SDL will work without it if the library + is missing, so it's safe to build in support even if the end user doesn't + have this library installed. +- DirectFB isn't included because the configure script (currently) fails to find + it at all. You can do "sudo apt-get install libdirectfb-dev" and fix the + configure script to include DirectFB support. Send patches. :) + + +Joystick does not work +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +If you compiled or are using a version of SDL with udev support (and you should!) +there's a few issues that may cause SDL to fail to detect your joystick. To +debug this, start by installing the evtest utility. On Ubuntu/Debian: + + sudo apt-get install evtest + +Then run: + + sudo evtest + +You'll hopefully see your joystick listed along with a name like "/dev/input/eventXX" +Now run: + + cat /dev/input/event/XX + +If you get a permission error, you need to set a udev rule to change the mode of +your device (see below) + +Also, try: + + sudo udevadm info --query=all --name=input/eventXX + +If you see a line stating ID_INPUT_JOYSTICK=1, great, if you don't see it, +you need to set up an udev rule to force this variable. + +A combined rule for the Saitek Pro Flight Rudder Pedals to fix both issues looks +like: + + SUBSYSTEM=="input", ATTRS{idProduct}=="0763", ATTRS{idVendor}=="06a3", MODE="0666", ENV{ID_INPUT_JOYSTICK}="1" + SUBSYSTEM=="input", ATTRS{idProduct}=="0764", ATTRS{idVendor}=="06a3", MODE="0666", ENV{ID_INPUT_JOYSTICK}="1" + +You can set up similar rules for your device by changing the values listed in +idProduct and idVendor. To obtain these values, try: + + sudo udevadm info -a --name=input/eventXX | grep idVendor + sudo udevadm info -a --name=input/eventXX | grep idProduct + +If multiple values come up for each of these, the one you want is the first one of each. + +On other systems which ship with an older udev (such as CentOS), you may need +to set up a rule such as: + + SUBSYSTEM=="input", ENV{ID_CLASS}=="joystick", ENV{ID_INPUT_JOYSTICK}="1" + |
