Fill out the following and return to your friendly neighbourhood geek:

1) Distribution used?

2) Kernel used?

3) Graphics Library used (SVGALib/FrameBuffer/SDL)?

4) Version of AdvanceMame being compiled?

5) Version of diff files being used?

6) Exact error message at time of compile error (might need to scroll up a few lines from the last error code to find it)?

7) Does it compile cleanly without the diff files being patched in?
