Xmame From Oe: Error In Brightness...

[vputz]

OK, I built xmame for 3.5.2 on my SL6000 using OpenEmbedded with this result:

Code: [Select]

root@tosa:/mnt/card# xmame.SDL
SDL: Info: SDL initialized
error: compiled byte ordering doesn't match machine byte ordering
are you sure you choose the right arch?
compiled for msb-first, are you sure you choose the right cpu in makefile.unix
sh: ../bin/qcop: not found
root@tosa:/mnt/card#
Looking at makefile.unix, the "arm" option doesn't appear to be a real one.  Since OE is presumably using the arm toolchain anyway, I tried "risc_lsb" for MY_CPU, and may have made some progress...

Code: [Select]

root@tosa:/mnt/card# xmame.SDL
SDL: Info: SDL initialized
error: invalid value for brightness: 1.0
sh: ../bin/qcop: not found
root@tosa:/mnt/card#
However... still no luck on having the thing run.  Doing a search for "invalid value for brightness" doesn't seem to reveal much.  I don't have any sort of xmamerc, though--which may be important.

Any pointers?

You tried from text console?

Try from opie-terminal - it looks like calls to qcop doesn't work due to missing OPIEDIR/QPEDIR/QTDIR env variables.

Good point (I had done it from text console for cut/paste).

But from the command line it's not much better.

Seven lines of

libpng error: Invalid bit depth

and then

SDL: Info: SDL initialized
error: invalid value for brightness: 1.0

... so something is still wonky.  I don't even know where this "value for brightness" comes from.  Interestingly, "xmame --help" gives the same result; I would have expected it to print the help message.
