i have downloaded zsnes from debian (my son is already using it under win) but my problem is that when i run : zsnes mario.smc (or aerofighter.smc) i can see the starting screen but it flickers (i do not know if it is the right word, i mean the image moves quickly up and down and viceversa). my video card is a matrox millennium g200 agp and works very well, e.g. with snes9x under xfree. i got the following suggestion from zsnes message board at zsnes homepage: try turning in vsync which i did! i added -w to the command, but the problem was still there :-( when i kill the program i can see the following message: Use ZSNES -? for command line definitions MMX support enabled. FOUND! File opened successfully! Max 48mbit ROM support + SuperFX/C4 support + 16bit New Gfx Engine Filename : mario.srm Frame Skip : AUTO Debugger : OFF Memory Free : Cartridge name : SUPER MARIOWORLD ROM type : LOROM/ROM/SRAM Memory Map : 20 ROM size : Megabits SRAM size : Kilobytes ROM Type : NTSC Checksum : PASSED NMI Vector Location : 816A Reset Vector Location : 8000 Press Any Key to Continue. matroxfb: cannot set xres to 800, rounded up to 832 matroxfb: cannot set xres to 800, rounded up to 832 ZSNES could not find any joysticks
since the rom type is ntsc i tried adding the -u option to the command and afterwards i substituted it with the -t one. the problem is still the same (i will cope with the joystick problem once i have solved the main one). any suggestion? aldo -- __________________________________________________________________ Your favorite stores, helpful shopping tools and great gift ideas.
