I only had to add the -m32 option to the LDFLAGS to make it link on a macbook pro. Without it I was getting architecture related errors (x86_64 missing from SDL for instance).

Hi all.
Yesterday O downloaded SDLmame for N900. I´m trying to compile for my tablet. But i can´t.

I searched all over the net, but i did´t get luck.

I´ll apreciate every advice you can give.

ENFDO.

Hi, the N900 is not yet supported. That work is in progress and hindered by the fact that none of us working on it have the hardware yet.

I tried this for a fairly new installation of OpenSUSE 11.2:



This should allow to check out from Subversion and to build successfully.

These are the dependencies I had to install on a debian wheezy (testing):

as root:

For some inane reason, the source needed to have its line endings changed from CRLF to LF using dos2unix whenever I compiled SDLMAME using openSUSE 12.1, in addition, GNOME 3 is now the official GNOME...

So the list would be for openSUSE 12.1

.

After that, decompress the source tree and .diff patch files and run the following where you decompressed the source and applicable patches.

patch --binary will allow the patching to work even with the original line endings.

ETA: MAME still explicitly uses GTK+ 2.x, so you shouldn't need gtk3-devel.

So will running the following in the ...



...but dos2unix has never failed me yet.

Also, openSUSE 12.1 requires gtk3-devel with gcc unless you don't install GNOME (due to the switch to GNOME 3).

If you actually understand sed syntax, you probably don't need this guide in the first place.

For everyone else, patch --binary is much, much easier

ETA: Also, there have been issues reported in the past where mass conversions like that hit some binary files in the source tree and caused the compile to fail and/or the resulting binary to not work properly. Restrict to *.c, *.h, and *.mak for safety.

This is what mame RPM Fusion package currently uses.
