Interesting. Does this run on Debian, and if so, how?
I tried it with gxmame frontend (I think now it's discontinued, because
it's in Obsolete and Locally Created Packages, or perhaps it was from
some unofficial .deb package, I don't remember). I didn't try it with
recent and heavy games, as my favorite ones are some 80's games, but it
worked quite well. Now I didn't run it for a long time and cannot load
games for now because I moved some directory here and there :-), but the
frontend starts up and apparently keeps working well.
Here's the packages I installed on my lenny machine (gxmame obsoleted
and quite old versions for the xmame-* ones, too):
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ dpkg -l | grep "^ii .*mame"
ii gxmame 0.35beta2-1 GTK XMame frontend
ii xmame-common 0.106-2 Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator
ii xmame-extras 20050404-1 Optional files used by xmame (cheat.dat etc)
ii xmame-sdl 0.106-2 SDL binaries for the Multiple Arcade Machine
ii xmame-tools 0.106-2 Tools for xmame and xmess
ii xmame-x 0.106-2 X binaries for the Multiple Arcade Machine E

As I imagined, they are all in non-free, except for gxmame which is in
contrib.
