Thanks for this patch, I will integrate it for the 0.244 build and hope it will be integrated in 0.245 version of MAME.

Considering 245 is about to be released and https://github.com/mamedev/mame/pull/9888is still open ... The fix is lame, the original commit that brought the bug is even worse ... I'll let you follow issues to understand why there was a commit that broke KMS. The various fix are totally absurd ...

Of course now that I open your github entry I find myself over my head immediately.
Is there any hope I can do this if I have never used Linux before and only have a Windows10 computer?
Maybe I can install virtualbox so I can follow your directions but my skill in dealing with computers and code is very limited!
Your very detailed directions look excellent- and also like a foreign (even when translated into English for me!) language.
:lol

If I can figure this out, anyone can. Saying I have third grade level computer knowledge would be an insult to third graders everywhere. You don't need to compile anything - bbegin has done it all for you. Just need to mount the image on a memory card and then boot up the pi. You then should connect to wifi using the config file discussed in this thread like 2 years ago. Everything else is in the instructions and it's trial and error and you can't mess anything up. Worst you can do is have to delete the image and restart. Just dive in!

Hi. I'm looking for help on how to get this working.
Here's where i am.
I have downloaded the file in the first post and installed it to the rPi4. I have booted the pi and got to the service menu. I am able to log in using the standard pi login details.
That's it. I have no idea where to go next. The step by step guide seems overly long for something everyone on here is saying is simple. Am i missing something? Am i supposed to follow each of the steps in the step by step guide? I think it would take me weeks to type in all the code in the guide.
I don't understand where i'm supposed to put the roms. In previous installs i've been able to find the folders if i put the sd card in my pc. When i do this now i don't see any of the usual folders.
There is mention of Samba share but all the tutorials i've looked at explaining this don't explain the error i get when i try to install it. (not using locking for ....etc)
javeryh. above you say connect to wifi using config discussed in the thread 2 years ago. Can you point me to the page on the thread this is discussed please? I've gone back and forth on the thread so many times i think im blind to see the actual helpful parts.
Any help on this would be gratefully received.

Jt82, if you use bbegin's premade download, there is very little you need to do. You really don't need the step-by-step guide, just the first post.
After you login, you run the script mentioned in the first post to use the full size of your SD card. I would suggest using an ethernet cable until you are ready to setup WiFi using the information from the linuxhint.com instructions also in the first post. From there, you should be able to connect over the network and add roms without issue or even by physically putting the SD card into your PC.
I hope this helps you get started.
