You can't miss SDL. It is a very cool gaming library.
It is very fast, since it can use the DGA extension of X, has mmx support
and fullscreen support, and can handle gif and bmp graphic formats, as well
as audio and music (mod format).
It is very simple to learn, too, and there are nice demos.
In contrast, I found programming with Xlib and DGA directly hard.
