Hello Marco, the link.res seems to be o.k . It looks like this:
SEARCH_DIR(/usr/lib/) SEARCH_DIR(/usr/X11R6/lib/) SEARCH_DIR(/usr/local/lib/) SEARCH_DIR(/usr/local/lib/fpc/1.0.10/units/freebsd/rtl/) SEARCH_DIR(/usr/local/lib/fpc/1.0.10/units/freebsd/SDL4Freepascal-1.2.0.0/) etc. I don`t know exactly what you mean with {$linklib SDL}... but I don`t have such an entry in the code. The source that I`m trying to compile is this one (first demo from the sdl package): { SDL4FreePascal-1.2.0.0 - Simple DirectMedia Layer bindings for FreePascal Copyright (C) 2000, 2001 Daniel F Moisset This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU Library General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or (at your option) any later version.

When using a depth non supported by hardware, SDL automatically converts to the requested depth, but it's slower than direct access. } width = 320 ; height = 240 ; colordepth = 16 ; Var screen: PSDL_Surface ; { A PSDL_Surface is used to store bitmap video surfaces, for example the visible screen, non-visible areas of video memory, and memory areas used for storing pixmaps. This variable will be used to store the visible screen. } Begin { SDL_Init must be called before doing anything with SDL. The parameter is a bitwise or of SDL_INIT_xxx constants, indicating which SDL subsystems will be used. } SDL_Init (SDL_INIT_VIDEO) ; { SDL_SetVideoMode creates a surface attached to the visible screen or window. Its last parameter indicates several flags for the surface. In this demo we're creating the surface in system memory (instead of video memory). This makes for faster pixel r/w access, but eventually is necessary to spend some time copying it to real video memory. A hardware surface must not be copied (it's already there), and may take advantage of hardware acceleration for blitting, but must be locked and unlocked when accessing } screen := SDL_SetVideoMode (width, height, colordepth, SDL_SWSURFACE) ; { SDL_SetVideoMode returns nil if something fails } if screen = nil then Begin Writeln ('Couldn''t initialize video mode at ', width, 'x', height, 'x', colordepth, 'bpp') ; Halt(1) End ; Delay(5000) ; { Wait 5 seconds } { Allocated surfaces must be freed using SDL_FreeSurface } SDL_FreeSurface (screen) ; { SDL_Quit closes SDL } SDL_Quit ; { The window/videomode closes just here (it's not closed by FreeSurface) } WriteLn('Now we are not using SDL') End. Now, the whole thing is bewildering, because I get a second error message which is diffrent from the old one. The message looks like this: -bash-2.05b$ fpc demo01.pp Free Pascal Compiler version 1.0.10 [2003/06/27] for i386 Copyright (c) 1993-2003 by Florian Klaempfl Target OS: FreeBSD/ELF for i386 Compiling demo01.pp Assembling demo01 Linking demo01 Compilation aborted demo01.pp:87 Runtime error 5 at 0x080BE16F 0x080BE16F 0x0809F874 0x0809F9C5 0x0804B325 0x0808904E 0x080884DA 0x08107AC9 0x080480E9 Can somebody explain to me, how I can get two diffrent error outputs with the same source code ?
