I do (as far as I know) have access to hardware surfaces. I am
explicitly requesting a hardware surface and returning an error if it
can't be found (at least I think I am, I'm not sure if SDL defaults to a
basic minimum if it can't be found).

I experimented with HW surfaces, however, I could not get them to work
properly. I kept getting errors when I tried flipping. Perhaps I should
try again and get back.
