Hi, the SDL libraries currently shipped in the Maemo 5 SDK and device
come without OpenGL support. This is a problem for games like Frets on Fire:

Now there is a package with the SDL libraries recompiled with
--enable-video-opengl. See https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4177

We are looking for testers in order to make sure that the new package
would actually work without affecting performance or stability for
non-OpenGL, plain SDL games.

Thank you.
