Hi Group,
I've started having a problem with certain fullscreen games (I can't
open them windowed either though.)
When launched from the command line, I get some error messages that I'm
hoping someone can help me capitalize on. (I've tried google)
[user at ltsp ~]$ wesnoth
Battle for Wesnoth v1.2.4
Started on Sat May 19 15:37:12 2007
started game: 2793193161
error display: Could not initialize SDL: No available video device
Could not initialize video. Exiting.
[user at ltsp ~]$ tuxpaint
Error: I could not initialize video and/or the timer!
The Simple DirectMedia Layer error that occurred was:
No available video device
These games worked fine up until a few days ago. Perhaps I yum
installed something in my sleep that's causing problems. I tried
rolling back the kernel to no avail. This happens for all the users
I've tried on 3 different clients with three different monitor types.
Thanks for any suggestions about how to solve this.
