Yes emulation rocks. I have never figured out - didn't try too hard mind you
- how to get xmame running properly.

I have 100+ mame roms from back in my windozs days, and apparantly they work
with linux too.

I will give it another go soon when I get time, my personal favorite is
bubble bobble, I rock it must be said at BB. Never completed it with 1
"coin" but got pretty near the top, a good 2 hours play!

If anyone has "details" as to how to configure xmame could they post to the
list, or to me.

Can we get an order together for some LOKI games? Who would like to organise
it? I believe there is cheaper price for lugs - seem to remember a post a
while back about this. I see Deux EX is available to buy as a preview
release. I really hope it will work with my Voodoo5, I have never gotten
quake3 to run with it.

I was going to make a cash donation there yesterday on www.tuxgames.com but
then I remembered I am very poor this month :(
But I would like very much to buy a LOKI game, their products are so well
polished that they deserve to survive.

Regards,
CW

or play old games under emulators.

people who say there are no games on linux, well i've got /hundreds/
them - lots of the most popular games from the last 2 decades, eh
*cough* least i could have but i don't *cough*

teen and got to play it again yesterday..
