You are using kde right ?
see: http://x.mame.net/xmame-doc-3.html#ss3.24
3.24 When I run xmame.x11, nothing happens---no window pops up or
anything. Help!
Are you running a recent version of KDE, such as 2.1.1? It appears that
there's a bug with KDE's window manager that prevents some X11 apps from
popping up their main window. You can either run the SDL version of
xmame, or try the following workaround, which several people have
reported as being successful:
xmame.x11 -rid `xwininfo -root | grep xwininfo: | awk '{print $4}'`
