SDL_HWACCEL is not a SDL_SetVideoMode flag; it's in the code by mistake.

I'm *POSITIVE* that the fullscreen problem using SDL_HWSURFACE is
because the HW surface is not being locked. I still haven't found my
way into the correct part of the code, but if someone feels like
taking a look, this article describes the problem with HW surf.
