Thanks for the news, Desmond! I´ll try this kernel in the future to see if 
it works with my Geforce 4 MX Integrated [NVCRUSH17]!
Currently, I´m trying to buy a new AGP 8X videocard that can have best 
results with ADVMAME. Do you know anyone? I have heard the ATI Radeon 
videocards have best result with ADVMAME. It´s correct? Guys, give some 
ideas!
