SDL 1.2 (Which file do I download?)

[DJKAOS]

I wanted to try using SDL instead of GLUT.

But i'm pretty new with linux, so I'm not sure which file to download.

I'm running Linux Mandrake 8.1, and I normally use GNOME, but sometimes KDE.

SDL is mandrake distro so you do not have to download anything if you have all CDs.

If I remember right it's lib-SDL* . (should be 1.2 version, check )

In http://nehe.gamedev.net/ there are some SDL ports for his tutorials.
Get one and try to compile it.

Thanks. Yea I'll try that.
(I did most of those NeHe tutorials before too just with GLUT and also with win32.)

Thanks again
