Post subject: | Mame games die after startup. |
Hi All, I am trying to get Mame working under Knoppmyth and I am having the following problem. 1) I select a game, I get the standard "do you own this rom" screen. 2) I type OK to go to the next screen (by the way, can I avoid this sceen?) 3) I now see the game info screen that says "press any key to play" 4) I press a key (space for example). 5) The screen goes black and appears to be changing resolution (there is a audible click). 6) I go right back to the game selection screen. The game never starts. For additional information, I have not yet updated the catver.ini file (I will do that tonight). Also, I am using version 4.4.1 of Knoppmyth. Most everything else seems to be working properly. Thanks for any insight, jpummill |

WHY IS THIS IN INSTALLATION? |

Cesman... You always say that!!! Here was my thinking. I just installed knoppmyth 4.4.1 and copied some roms to the /myth/mame/roms directory and tried to play them. It does not work so I figured there is something wrong with the way I installed / configured that part of knoppmyth. I would be glad to post the question somewhere else if you will let me know the right location. Thanks, jpummill |

Installation if for problems related to installing KnoppMyth. Operations of included programs isn't related to installation and doesn't belong here. I tested and tested and tested all included programs. Issues related to their use don't belong in KnoppMyth _> Installation. That is why there is Linux -> General, Linux -> Installation, Linux -> MythTV, KnoppMyth -> General or KnoppMyth -> Usage. I don't care if one thinks in belongs in here... Simply put: Once installation is complete, you've rebooted and completed configuration. Whatever issues you have no longer belong in KnoppMyth -> Installation(period). |

OK, fair enough. Now that I know the rules, I will try to abide by them. I will repost the question under KnoppMyth->Usage (unless you think that Linux->MythTV is a better location). jpummill |
