Thanks Lasse Kärkkäinen, it seems that my desktop lacks some opengl support as
you said :)

I don't know how to check if I have OpenGL 2.0 or equivalent extensions, i
thought "glxinfo | grep -i version" would do it, but now I have a notebook that
runs performous (my desktop has an old voodoo 3, the notebook is quite modern
intel) and the output of "glxinfo | grep -i version" didn't show 2.0 or newer
numbers.

So I've made a little testcase using SDL_SetVideoMode with SDL_OPENGL (first I
didn't realize I wasn't using it and all seems to work and I didn't understand
why :)) and the SDL_GL_SetAttribute used in video_driver.c and it does not work
either. Removing SDL_OPENGL from flags makes it work, so it must be something
related to OpenGL as Lasse Kärkkäinen says.

So I guess this bug should be closed, sorry for the noise.

And sorry for taking so long to reply, I forgot to subscribe to the bug and
missed the comments




Thanks a lot,
Rodrigo
