A new SDL library

zodttd is working on a new version for psx4all for the Zaurus, he has released a new version which includes also a new and improved DSL library. I tried the new library and I saw a noticeable improvement in performance. With the new SDL library the arrow keys are in the right direction.

I installed it manually to /media/loop0/packages/user/lib and then linked,

# ln -s /media/loop0/packages/user/lib/libSDL-1.2.so.0.7.2 /media/loop0/packages/user/lib/libSDL-1.2.so.0
I checked the files thay uses libSDL:
  • VBA - still can't run sound but there is an improvement in performance.
  • snes9x - I saw an improvement in the performance, but the screen flickers with the new library.
  • gpsp - still couldn't use it.
  • ScummVm - The menu bug is back - it seems that the fn key is mapped to alt in this version of SDL and ScummVm wouldn't accept any key combination as F5.
  • mplayer - works fine.
