Assorted Linux troubles

As a new Linux/BlitzMax user I already ran into these rather odd problems: - The BGL_FULLSCREEN flag does not set a fullscreen mode - MilliSecs() seems to give rather bogus values. A mere Print MilliSecs() produces -1239291198 - The following example from the help file does not work: Framework BRL.Basic Print "Hello World!" But gives an error about "undefined reference to `xfullscreen'" My setup is XP 3000+ with kernel 2.4.30 and Nvidia drivers from a couple of months back. 3D acceleration works fine in other programs. BlitzMax is updated to 1.10. GCC is 3.3 and distribution Debian Unstable. |

Ok. The last problem got solved by making it a non-debug build. |

The millisecond problem can obviously be circumvented by reading the value in the beginning and subtracting it during the run... Not good but at least works. What bothers me way more is that apparently there is some sort of lag or bug in the X/GLX event handling. When I move the mouse over the GL window the update rate is at least doubled! Anyone else noticed the same problem? |

Left a parameter out of the bglCreateContext()... fixed now ;v) |

NB: There a nice "Edit" link on the top of your posts ;) No need to post all those messages~ |

I would prefer the millisecond problem behave like Windows, ie return time since system restarted, not quite sure how to get this info from Linux at this time. |
