SDL:Blitting surface-surface-screen

Hi folks!
I am new to SDL and ran into the same problem as:
http://www.gamedev.net/community/forums/topic.asp?topic_id=87323
I want to copy a surface to another surface and then draw it on the screen, but all I get is a black window.
What I am doing looks like this:
Would I blit s directly to the screen, everything works fine.
Can anybody help on this one?
Thx

No, calling SDL_Flip doesn't save the day.
My screen is initializied with the following settings:
My screen is initializied with the following settings:
SDL_Surface *screen; int WINWIDTH = 640, WINHEIGHT = 480, BPP = 8; screen = SDL_SetVideoMode( WINWIDTH,WINHEIGHT, BPP, SDL_SWSURFACE ); if( screen == NULL ) { fprintf(stderr, "Couldn't set %ix%ix%i video mode: %s\n", WINWIDTH,WINHEIGHT,BPP, SDL_GetError()); exit(1); }
Hm, does it work if you blit your surface directly to the screen, without the intermediate surface?
Need to make sure your surface actually has something in it before we go on a wild goose chase :)

Yes, if I blit s directly to the screen (One of the outcommented lines), it works and I see a red textline on the screen, but with the intermediate surface it doesn't.
Has anyone else ever done this and has code which works?

Well, I have tried something new to make it more comprehensible
for everyone and changed it. Now I load an image, blitt it to another surface and then to the screen. Same result: It doesn't show up.

Here is a small bit of code. Might help you a little.

I have no event loop. I just placed a breakpoint in the last line.

You are doing what works fine for me as well:
You load a bmp and store it. Then you copy it to the screen.
What doesn't work is to copy it to an intermediate surface and then blit it to the screen.

Just a guess, but don't you have to set up a palette for an 8BPP surface? Maybe the palette for surface tmpSurface is empty...
