[AL] Problems: Alegro 4.2.0rc2 on Maemo platform

[J P. <jpa...@we...>]

Hi all,

I have tried to compile and run Allegro on the Maemo platform
(www.maemo.org). I gave the 4.2.0rc2 a try (after trying 4.0.x and 4.1.x
series in vain) and it actually does compile nicely this time, no
problems with assembly anymore, nice job!

But on runtime I found out that problems still exist:

 - the get_executable_name() gets wrong path in the Maemo SDK 
 - graphics doesn't work in fullscreen mode, just X11 windows
 - games (ufo2000) abort on assert in inline Allegro code (sprite
blitting)

Would there be some interest to help make Allegro 4.2.0 run on this?
Nokia 770 should ship still this quarter ;-)

With best regards,
