SDL error with the version

hi, i've just downloaded a test game to try compiling it with the gcc compiler in Solaris, the problem was that ./configure command return this error

Code:

*** Could not run SDL test program, checking why...
*** The test program compiled, but did not run. This usually means
*** that the run-time linker is not finding SDL or finding the wrong
*** version of SDL. If it is not finding SDL, you'll need to set your
*** LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable, or edit /etc/ld.so.conf to point
*** to the installed location  Also, make sure you have run ldconfig if that
*** is required on your system
***
*** If you have an old version installed, it is best to remove it, although
*** you may also be able to get things to work by modifying LD_LIBRARY_PATH
configure: error: *** SDL version 1.1.6 or above not found!

if needed I'll post even the previous output, anyway I've just installed the 1.2.x SDL lybrary and used the crle -l command, and now in the crle output there is even the /usr/local/lib directory. What should I do? Is there a previous version of SDL library installed on Solaris by defautl? how can I control the version of SDL library on my OS ? I can't manage to solve the problem.

PLaying a sound file with SDL - C++

How do I play a sound file with SDL? I've downloaded the library files but SDL/SDL_mixer.h (that most of the tutorials include) doesn't exist. So, how do I install it? As I said mixer.h doesn't exist but, If it is helpful, the default code is this: #include "stdlib.h" #include "SDL/SDL.h"...

Playing Video with MinGW and SDL

caca-config

caca-config(1)						      General Commands Manual						    caca-config(1)

NAME

       caca-config - script to get information about the installed version of libcaca

SYNOPSIS

       caca-config [ --prefix= DIR] [ --exec-prefix= DIR] [ --version ] [ --libs ] [ --cflags ]

DESCRIPTION

       caca-config  is	a  tool  that  is  used  to  configure and determine the compiler and linker flags that should be used to compile and link
       progams, libraries, and plugins that use libcaca.

       The use of caca-config is deprecated. The more generic tool pkg-config should be used instead.

OPTIONS

       --cflags
	      Print the compiler flags that are necessary to compile a program or library that uses libcaca.

       --exec-prefix=DIR
	      If specified, use DIR instead of the installation exec prefix that libcaca was build with when computing the output for the --cflags
	      and --libs options.  This option must be specified before any of the --cflags and --libs options.

       --libs Print the linker flags that are necessary to link a program or library that uses libcaca.

       --prefix=DIR
	      If  specified,  use PREFIX instead of the installation prefix that libcaca was built with when computing the output for the --cflags
	      and --libs options.  This option is also used for the exec prefix if --exec-prefix was not specified.  This option must be specified
	      before any of the --cflags and --libs options.

       --version
	      Prints the currently installed version of libcaca on standard output.

EXAMPLES

       gcc -o main.o $(caca-config --cflags) -c main.c
	      is how you might use caca-config to compile a C source file for an executable program.

       gcc -o my_app $(caca-config --libs) main.o util.o
	      is how you might use caca-config to link compiled objects into an executable program.
