Is it possible to have SDL without X?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,

Can a guest with SDL graphics run on a host without X? I get an error:
"init kbd.
Could not initialize SDL - exiting"

The above happens on a host with X after running "/etc/init.d/xdm stop" and "chmod -R 777 /dev".
If I don't do the chmod, SDL complains about not being able to open the framebuffer and exits.

The host is Debian Squeeze with the standard qemu-kvm package in their repository (version 0.12.5).
The guest xml does not specify a keyboard device.
The same guest runs fine under X.

If there is any other information that could be useful, I will be very happy to provide it.
If this is not the right place for such questions, apologies, please let me know what the right place is.

Thanks!
Richard
