Welcome to tthe Linux Game development forum, for discussion of anything involving Linux game development, be it SVGAlib, X, DGA, sound, input, kernel joystick drivers... (just how *do* you use a PSX joystick on a PC?)

Also, any idle Linux chat is more than welcome...

No flaming (unless 100% justified, and only flames from me) is permitted.

Have a nice stay, and LINUX FOR-EVA!

Ok, this may sound incredibly newbie, but I have to ask. Is X programming hard to learn? And how do I get started (documentation, web resources, ...)? Me and some friends are planning to produce a little online RPG and I''d like to have a graphical Linux client. As it looks now, the server will be running on Linux while the client is written for Windows/DirectX.

Epp.

Xlib is a pain in the ass to learn. Use SDL (www.libsdl.org)... it''s kinda like DirectX only better... and it''s crossplatform, so you could write the whole thing in it (both Winblows and Linsucks versions)
