[mythtv-users] mythgame and xmame

[Jason Lewis]

Hi,

I have been trying to get mythgame and xmame to play nicely together and
I'm having a few problems.

I'm really trying to build a stable system for production use in the
living room, so I have done my best to stick with standard installs of
everything.

I have based the system on debian Testing, installed the .debs of mythtv
0.18.1 and the debian testing version of xmame 0.86-3. But i found that
version if xmame didn't support lirc. So with a bit of fiddling around I
mamange to get the 0.99 version of xmame from unstable, which works
great with lirc, but unfortunatley it appears they have changed the
command line options for xmame and now it won't run when its called by
mythgame.

Has anyone encountered this problem? Is there an easy solution to it?
(ie that does not require hacking mythtv code to make it work)

I'd like to avoid going to an SVN version of myth if possible.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Jason
