Hi folks, Apologies if this is a known issue, but after going through the mail archives and not finding an answer, I'm hoping someone can help as I've been struggling with this for a couple of weeks now.
What I'm trying to accomplish is essentially running xmame.SDL on my Slack-based cabinet. 0.80.1 built fine and runs OK in this environment, with one exception: raster games do not appear fullscreen. Both vector games and Advancemenu (itself built against SDL) do fullscreen without problems, so it looks as though fullscreen in the mode that I'm using is doable. Now, I know that people are probably thinking that section 3.26 of the xmame FAQ (http://tinyurl.com/27lyq - the part regarding borders around the game in SDL) is coming into play here, and it may well be. However, there's a catch: that section of the FAQ specifically talks about modes under X. I'm running SDL in console. Is there a way to define the same video modes under console as for X? It seems to me that if it's doable for one it should be (somehow) doable for the other since it's essentially the same display access method in both cases. Of course, I'm rather new to SDL (having previously been running under XFree86), so please excuse me if this is a very basic question. Also, please note that I am operating to certain constraints here: the main reason I want to use console is to save the CPU overhead acquired from running XFree86. I'm also stuck with having to use 640x480x32M due to running on a fixed-freq arcade monitor. Any ideas would be gratefully received; I asked this initially on the MAME forums (http://tinyurl.com/2t5un - pulled here from Google's cache due to the posts expiring) but it was suggested I may want to ask here. Cheers, - Fic. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
