Re: advance mame

 Hi Rolf,

When I went to linux, I didn't have to much of an issue. I simply installed
knoppix from a live cd and then compiled advancemame and advancemenu from
source. I used knoppix because as a distrobution, it will automatically
alwys start you off as the knoppix user, and thus bipassing any log in
screens. From their, it's simple to add a call to advancemenu from to your
start up scripts. Nothing teribly big there. Umm, don't install X, it's
unnecessary. Use either the svgalib or the frame buffer drivers instead.

As another guide, this fellow has a really nice write up.

Hope this helps.

Hi there Grant,

I saw your post on the advance mame mailing list.

Im currently using dos and advance mame, noticed that you had switched to a
linux based box. Im interested in doing that. Any advice and gotchas you
could pass on would be much appreciated.

Thanks
Rolf
