Issue

Running ./fab-agon-emulator launches a GTK4 window with a blackscreen:

Steps

Clone Repository
Change Directory to Repository
Import Submodules
Run GNU Make
Run ./fab-agon-emulator

Tips

Workarounds like running with MOS and VDP variants don't solve the issue
No cargo complaints when building source code (only a gamepad warning)
Soft resetting the emulator get a beep sound, so I think it is actually a video only SDL issue

Debug Info

Building using branch 0.9-dev does not solve the issue. But, when using the built release from last week the video came out (as expected).

So, my suggestion is:

Import a static SDL library to not rely on user system libs
Modify SDL calls to be more compatible with recent libs
Specify which libs are needed to avoid this black screen issue (and append in README.md in a "Known Issues" category)

Interesting Fact

Curiously, copying sdcard and firmware contents from binary release to the built from source 0.9-dev branch gets this segmentation fault error:

$ ./fab-agon-emulator
[1]    2220818 segmentation fault (core dumped)  ./fab-agon-emulator

Somehow the issue has been solved in a recent commit, closing

tomm / fab-agon-emulator
