Cheers, i'll give this a run a bit later.

I'm pretty well versed in programming, being a C++ programmer by trade, by have yet to ever venture beyond the friendliness of Visual Studio, so pointers like these are exactly what i need.

Will report back...

Martin.

Does nobody have any ideas on this?

I've tried experimenting with most of the optimizations in the Makefile and most of the command line options, running as root or running as a standard user, updated to the latest NVidia X driver, yet still no joy getting a debug copy of xmame to not seg fault!

% gdb xmame and on the gdb prompt type "run".

When you get a segfault type "bt" on the gdb prompt.
You should see a backtrace and then you can start debugging or
send the backtrace to the list so that someone can help you locate
where the problem is.


Compile with -g -O2 to get a good backtrace. (-Wall is also a good idea
to see if the compiler gives any warnings that might be related).
