Hi,
I got several problems with games that use libsdl on my new PC (but it has dated hardware ;-( like MCP61, nv 210 etc). The main problem is that I cannot freely rotate game screen, it feels like there are some invisible "borders". I guessed if this is a problem with my PS2 mouse, so I bought new USB mouse, but nothing changed: something breaks pointer from moving freely by the screen. The problem appears only in sdl games like Urban Terror, Sauerbraten etc. I checked dmesg output for errors but there is nothing worth.

Thank you for your bug report!

We're busy working on getting SDL 1.3 ready for a high quality release, and want to make sure as many things are fixed there as possible.
Could you check to see if your bug is resolved by the latest SDL 1.3 snapshot?
