I have the same problem. I've tried the SDL_FULLSCREN in the init. It 
changes resolution an then crashes (the program) with this erro:

Fatal signal: Segmentation Fault (SDL Parachute Deployed)

I also have Quake 3 demo and it works fine and mesa demos also fullscreen.
Is SDL using Mesa3D to do OpenGL or is it using Opengl directly??
If it doesn't, is it possible to make it use Mesa3D?? (I thinks SDL1.1.2
used it, at least it changed to fullscreen but i was useing Xfree 3.3.5 
or .6).

I'm using this:   =) may help resolve my problem.

Mandrake Linux 7.1
SDL 1.1.4
Xfree86 - 4
Creative Banshee
3dfx Ref. drivers

In a previos mail it says to use the Dri drivers, is it really necessary??

Thanks in advance.
