Re: canvas for games?

Well I don't think canvas is good enough but for static sceen games, its 
too much of a generic engine, and its purpose is not games.

try SDL library look for it at www.google.org/linux

Mmm I read on a reply about ALLEGRO.

did someone made an ALLEGRO widget for  gnome????????
I used allegro years ago on DOS, but when I tested it on X windows, I 
hated it, it takes all the CPU. 

what is better ALLEGRO or SDL?
