Desmond, you are a genius. Now my arcade cabinet is working under Xfree with 
nvidia official driver!
this is great! I tried to put quake3 arena to work, but I didn´t get 
fullscreen. Maybe I need some
parameters.

So, I have some questions to you. First, I generated some modelines for 
neogeo games and cps2 games:

304x224x59hz and 320x224x59hz for neogeo
384x224x60hz for cps2

So, for neogeo, I got a better screen. But for cps2, the screen was 
compressed. So, I change the resize option
to fraction and !eureka! it works. Even for mortal kombat.
I put the hq effect too and the image become a little bit more beautifull. 
It´s normal to set the resize option to
fractional or there is a better solution?

For Xfree config, I setup the xorg.conf  at the monitor specs and I added 
the option Virtual 640x480.
For my prefered resolution, I put this modeline:

# 320x240x60.00 @ 15.750kHz
Modeline "640x240x60.11"  12.096000  640 656 720 768  240 244 247 
262 -HSync -VSync

And I got a great image, but with virtual screen. It´s possible to have a 
major resolution and screen without a virtual
screen?

I´s possible to center the screen via software or I need to center on my 
arcade monitor? Some modelines have some screen cut.

Thanks again for your great work.

Keep mailing
