Thanks for the test-case you've provided, I've been able to reproduce the problem. More intriguing, if I do a SDL_Init(SDL_INIT_VIDEO) at the beginning then the error message returned by TTF_GetError() is: Failed loading DPMSDisable: /usr/lib/libX11.so.6: undefined symbol: DPMSDisable Unfortunately, I have no deeper insight about this. I've CCed upstream. Cheers, Samuel.
