[Gambas-user] SDL component on Xandros

[drovar]

After a bit of investigating I got the Gambas and the SDL component to 
compile on Xandros Linux. The problem is that Gambas needs 
"libsdl-mixer1.2-dev" which depends on "libsmpeg-dev" which is only 
available from a newer version of Debian testing than Xandros is based on.

The solution was to temporarily add testing to sources with "deb 
http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ testing main contrib non-free," and 
install only "libsmpeg-dev," and then remove testing and install 
"libsdl-mixer1.2-dev" from Xandros Network.  I also needed to install 
"libqt3-compat-headers" for make to complete.

So far Gambas comes up and seems to work fine including "Snake" with 
sound, which I couldn't get to work at all before.
