No text modes on Linux AdvanceMAME

[Captain_Dingo]

I have a TNT2 in my Linux-based MAME PC.  It's connected to my arcade monitor (standard res only) by a JPAC.

When I'm trying to set up AdvanceMAME, running advcfg or advv gives me an error stating "No text modes are available for your device.".

What do I do to get around this?  Is there a better piece of software that I should be using for this configuration?

Perhaps this can help a bit:

In the sources of advancedmame, according to v/draw.c :

No text modes available for your hardware.
Please check your `device_video_p/h/vclock' options in the configuration file.
Eventually add a specific modeline named '" DEFAULT_TEXT_MODE "' and ensure
that you have a text mode video driver compiled in.
Ensure also to use the auto option for device_video.

Do you use X or svgalib ?
Did you compile yourself or are you using the binaries from advancemame website ?
