desmatic:
The latest versions of advancemame and advancemenu default to the svgaline driver on Trident's Blade T64.  This driver almost always selects the wrong hclock.  You need to change



device_video auto



to



device_video vbeline vgaline



if you do not, you will almost certainly put your monitor in harms way.



Happy holidays, desmatic.

Hey desmatic, are you gonna update the rc files on your site?  Man, I tell ya, just when I get advancemame working perfectly again, they come out with a new version and mess it all up!!!  It's unbelievable how each new version messes everything up, isn't it???

desmatic:
Ya, I know it can be a bit frustrating at times.  It's pretty much a framebuffer issue though.  Whenever a new framebuffer driver is added or tweaked, another takes a bashing.

I'll update my rc files and easycab when I return to the states (in about 2 weeks).  Right now I'm on vacation in Wales.  

I'm pretty sure that if you just change device_video auto to device_video vbeline vgaline you should have no problems running the latest version.  Beware though, a lot of rom changes have taken place since .74.  Without an updated rom set, you're likely to loose as many games as you gain.

uepa:
Thanks desmatic!  If it weren't for you, I'd be stuck running Mame32 in my cabinet, LOL!

I keep the most current romset (.78) currently on my PC and update my cabinet accordingly.  Therefore the updated sets are not the problem, it's the ever changing advancemame.

Hey, enjoy your vacation!
