[PS2] cannot build sdl on current svn

[yoshi314]

sdl build fails because of incorrect number of parameters to gsKit_init_global. so i've digged around gsKit and found the problem.

this fix makes it build, but i would appreciate if somebody would review it and come up with proper fix. it's just a build fix so i don't know how it behaves when running - i accidentally found it when i was trying to experiment with writing my first simple sdl-based ps2 app.

Wow, this is cool.
Thanks a lot for the codes. =)

That's the proper fix, :D.

I made a post detailing how to fix SDL over a year ago, for both older versions and the most recent version of gsKit. I also added information for the ability to support more display modes than NTSC or PAL.

It doesn't look like I was that clear there but supporting different display modes are kind of unwieldy because of the way gsKit does the init all at once. For large resolution display modes, dividing the resolution's width and height by 2 or 3 will give you small framebuffer dimensions, but will be scaled to fullscreen by the output circuit. This gives the ability to display in HD modes with spare vram for texture data, even though you're not rendering HD quality graphics.
