Re: [Enigma-devel] SDL-Problem with enigma ...

[Andreas Lochmann]

Hello Carl-Valentin,

from what I read, you should be unable to start any
application which needs SDL on your desktop computer?
If yes, the problem is with SDL, not Enigma.

First: Try to update your SDL, if possible.
If this doesn't help, try to start Enigma as root
for once. If Enigma runs fine with root rights,
SDL's uid is set wrong.
Of course: Don't play Enigma with root rights,
it's better you try to repair it ;-)

If this still doesn't help:
Did you compile Enigma and/or SDL by yourself, or
did you install it via synaptic/apt/dpkg?

You might try to deinstall Enigma and/or SDL and
reinstall again; there might have been an error
during download or installation before.

Best,
Andreas
