I just set my rom directory for xmame to /usr/share/xmame/roms which  
contains all my (correctly) zipped roms. I did have a permissions  
issue at some point with that directory, so I did a chown -R  
mythtv.mythtv /ur/share/xmame and all was well. Scanned for games and  
it worked. It didn't do a "deep scan", just displayed the named of  
the files without the .zip extension. No screen shots or anything,  
either. But I'm not that picky. If I get around to it, I'll fix up  
that stuff. I'm running .20 ATrpms if that matters.
