MAME on Linux

USSEnterprise:
I just noticed when booting that it said it coldn't start something having to do with the "Xserver", but I still get a command prompt. The disc I used is straight from ubuntu, not from an ISO

elvis:
The error you are giving us is not detailed enough.

Search through the contents of the /var/log/Xorg.0.log file and post the relavent bits that reavel what is broken.

There's a good chance your video driver is not recognised.  What hardware (CPU, chipset, video card) are you using with this system?

USSEnterprise:
nevermind on the first problem. I got into the GUI. New problem occured. When I entered the GUI, my monitor went crazy. it almost looked like the vertical hold was off. Then my monitor flashed "INVALID SCAN FREQ.". I checked the monitor on another PC and it works fine. The computer's video is also fine, as it is normal when I see the IBM splashscreen. It is an IBM 300GL, 300MHz Pentium II, Intel chipset, and Cirrus Logic onboard video 546X
