Just got a problem when starting Wah!cade, I do not get listed any games at added to the machine. And if I quit, I get an error message.

I installed the 64bit version of Lubuntu. Could this be an issue or is anyone using that successfully?

Appreciated,
Joe

I had the same problem on Lubuntu 12.10, 64 bit.
The original Wahcade is getting a bit old, and buggy.
I installed the branched version: Mahcade from launchpad, to be found here: https://code.launchpad.net/~waynemou/wahcade/devel
You have to install "bazaar" (bzr) to pull it from launchpad, but this version works fine for me.
I am currently setting up a new mainboard for my cab.

success

I think I got regular wahcade to work with recent versions of mame by not only adding

    'keyboard': u'keyboard',

To the /usr/local/share/games/wahcade/filters.py file as stated in the tutorial above, but also a keypad entry:

    'keypad': u'keypad',

I think I was using my own build of 0.147, but it might have been 0.146

Cheers for sharing. I installed now the 32bit version of Lubuntu which seemed to work.

There is now a new build for the Wah!Cade package, which is working now pretty good on my system (wahcade_20130128mahcade_all):

 I just did a fresh install of lubuntu, followed your guide and I am now able to start wahcade! Thanks for the easy guide. Does anyone have tips on customizing wahcade? It displays the rom .zip file name. When I open mame itself it will display both .zip and game name. What about the cover art  or at least disabling that screen as well?

Have a look at the configuration and extras sections of Wah!Ki. Let me know if anything is specifically missing and perhaps we can address it there.
