Dear MacPod,

I have created a roms directory in /mame/openlase-mame/xmame-0.106/
And i have put asteroid.zip in it (I have also decompress the zip files into this roms directory).

Do you have any idea of what i'm doing wrong Macpod ?

Have a great week end

Macpod:
Did you modify the following line in your xmamerc file to specify where your rom folder is?:

--- Code: ---rompath $HOME/.xmame/roms

--- End code ---
Is your xmamerc file located in one of the locations it was searched for at? I.e.:

--- Code: ---info: trying to parse: /usr/local/share/xmame/xmamerc
info: trying to parse: /home/skappy/.xmame/xmamerc
info: trying to parse: /usr/local/share/xmame/xmame-x11rc
info: trying to parse: /home/skappy/.xmame/xmame-x11rc
info: trying to parse: /usr/local/share/xmame/rc/asteroidrc
info: trying to parse: /home/skappy/.xmame/rc/asteroidrc

--- End code ---

Finally in your rom directory (or a subdirectory), do these files exist?:

--- Code: ---035145.02 NOT FOUND
035144.02 NOT FOUND
035143.02 NOT FOUND
035127.02 NOT FOUND

--- End code ---

What does the rompath directory point to and what is inside of this directory? (use ls -l)

Fabrice:
Dear MacPod,
Very sorry for been such a pain ...
I do not understanf what is going on ...

I have put the xmamerc file into the .xmame directory, change the rompath with

rompath $HOME/skappy/.xmame/roms

and here is the path to my roms

skappy@skappy-portable:~$ ls
avirer.py examples.desktop ModÃ¨les TÃ©lÃ©chargements
Bureau helloworld.py Musique test_twitter.py
Documents hershey-fonts openlase tweet.py
essai_compilation_c Images Public VidÃ©os
essai_compilation_python jd2 pylase.so
skappy@skappy-portable:~$ cd .xmame
skappy@skappy-portable:~/.xmame$ ls
cfg diff hi inp mem nvram rc roms sta xmamerc
skappy@skappy-portable:~/.xmame$ cd roms
skappy@skappy-portable:~/.xmame/roms$ ls
034602-01.c8 035143-02.j2 035145-04e.ef2 readme.html
035127-02.np3 035144-04e.h2 asteroid.zip

I'm a bit lost !!!

Thx Macpod

Macpod:

--- Quote ---rompath $HOME/skappy/.xmame/roms

--- End quote ---
This is incorrect. (it is pointing to /home/skappy/skappy/.xmame/roms) It should be:

--- Code: ---rompath $HOME/.xmame/roms

--- End code ---

--- Quote ---skappy@skappy-portable:~/.xmame/roms$ ls
034602-01.c8 035143-02.j2 035145-04e.ef2 readme.html
035127-02.np3 035144-04e.h2 asteroid.zip

--- End quote ---
You need to rename these files to match what xmame is looking for when it tries to run the asteroid game. That is what these lines correspond to:

--- Code: ---035145.02 NOT FOUND
035144.02 NOT FOUND
035143.02 NOT FOUND
035127.02 NOT FOUND

--- End code ---

Fabrice:
Macpod, please apologize...

I have modified the rompath as you mentionned ,

I have renamed the 4 files as terminal expects

skappy@skappy-portable:~$ cd ..
skappy@skappy-portable:/home$ ls
skappy
skappy@skappy-portable:/home$ cd skappy
skappy@skappy-portable:~$ cd .xmame
skappy@skappy-portable:~/.xmame$ ls

skappy@skappy-portable:~/.xmame$ cd roms

I can't understand what is needed, previously 4 files were not found and now only two are still missing...
