[SDL] SDL_GetVideoInfo absolutely no acceleration

I compiled SDL 1.2.11  with OpenWatcom 1.6 as a static lib. I am working under
Win XP, with DirectX 9.00 installed.

Every thing looks ok.  When I ask SDL_GetVideoInfo()  for hardware acceleration
support always get no acceleration and 0 (zero) video memory.  I tried in varios
ATIs  and NVidia(s) with same results.  My previous implementations with
DirectDraw found hardware acceleration.

I called  SDL_GetVideoInfo()  after  SDL initialization but before setting a
video mode .  

Any hint ?

Thanks,

Armando
