> No dependency between SDL and SVGALIB

Perhaps during compile time of SDL library, the svgalib is not detected or "--with-svgalib" option is not used during "./configure" process. 

Is it possible to use SDL with Frame buffer inside XO laptops without svgalib?
(ie: fbcon, directfb)

>From SDL FAQ:
You can set the environment variable "SDL_VIDEODRIVER" to the name of the driver you want to use. The drivers available depend on the platform and SDL compile-time options. Here is a partial list for some platforms: 
Linux: 
x11 - (default) Use the X11 windowing system 
dga - Use XFree86 DGA 2.0 for fullscreen hardware acceleration 
fbcon - Use the framebuffer console 
directfb - Use the DirectFB API 
svgalib - Use the SVGAlib API 
ggi - Use the General Graphics Interface API 
aalib - Use the Ascii Art library
