Yes, it's because the linux VMs have an old FB version with out of date headers. More recent FB have (still out of date) headers for SDL 2.0.6.
SDL_GameControllerFromInstanceID was added in SDL 2.0.4 and SDL_JoystickGetDeviceInstanceID in 2.0.6. I can do without those Now, what I had forgotten was that gfx_sdl2.bas doesn't require SDL 2.0.5, it uses ifdefs to support older versions. Our .debs (since a few days ago) currently list sdl 2.0.5 as a dependency, although it turns out it's actually some earlier version. I can easily avoid SDL_JoystickGetDeviceInstanceID to keep the requirement at 2.0.5 or below. SDL 2.0.5 was released Oct 2016 and SDL2.0.6 was released Sept 2017. Three years ago is too recent for my taste, even four years is, when we otherwise support ~9 year old Linux systems. Ideally I'd like to do runtime linking to either SDL 1.2 or SDL 2 so we can put gfx/music_sdl and gfx/music_sdl2 in the same build. I already started on it. 2.0.5 added SDL_SetWindowResizable. Many nice things in 2.0.6, notably non-power-of-two audio resampling (so eg 48kHz oggs will play correctly).
