What version of mythtv, distro and xmame do you have?

When mythgame can't launch xmame it will throw up this message as well
as when the version is not actually supported. mythgame for 0.18.1 is
known to work with xmame from version > 0.36 through version < 0.100
(but it probably works with 0.100 too). The sweet spot is something like
version >= 0.87 through version < 0.100. So if you have one of these
versions I suggest jacking up the logging on mythfrontend and seeing
what it tried to use for an xmame command and then running that command
by hand as the user that is running mythfrontend and seeing what
happens.
