thanks for the help :)

Perhaps its best to try to get things straight from the gngeo-gui path configuration now you have installed both deb packages:
  • BIOS: make sure you point to the map with the neo geo bios. It should contain files like "aes-bios.bin"
  • romrc: /home/opt/gngeo/share/gngeo/romrc.d/
  • roms: should point to the folder with your neo geo roms in zip format
  • gngeo: /home/opt/gngeo/bin
If all that can be set without error and it's still not working, let's try to start from the command line as the next step.

P.s. Making gngeo work is a bit out of scope of this topic...

The call is in a correct way if it is done in one line.
If you just enter /opt/gngeo/bin/gngeo, does it give a help page, or a permission denied?

I cannot imagine /home/user/MyDocs/aof.zip will have permission issues. Just entering /home/user/MyDocs/aof.zip will give a permission denied, because it is not executable.

So the call in one line must be: /opt/gngeo/bin/gngeo /home/user/MyDocs/aof.zip

So make sure you are in the same directory where gngeo-gui_0.0.1-1_armel.deb is placed (via "cd") and then executed the command again. Please let me know if it helped, and if not, upload the exact commands you gave and the errors you encounter.

Ok so in terminal I typed

sudo gainroot
then cd MyDocs
and then dpkg -i gngeo-gui_0.0.1-1_armel.deb

what I got was this

Re: [Announce] GnGeo-gui
 
Hey buddies, for people having difficult getting gngeo working, check my Tutorial on 'http://forums.internettablettalk.com/showthread.php?p=986825#post986825' (post# 65 ) . In addtion; for who have tried installing the package from this thread, install Filebox or another File Manager with root access and check if opt/gngeo folder is present, also home\user\gngeo, delete both of them if so. Do not create home\user\MyDocs\roms before XTerm comands. Check App Man to see if you have gngeo v. 0.7 installed, if so uninstall it, follow my tutorial on the link, neo geo bios (4 files) go unzipped to home\user\MyDocs\roms also the zipped roms. To start a game on XTerm 'gngeo/bin/gngeo mslug' (for example romname without .zip) press Enter . Install XGngeo for configurations or edit gngeorc file.

If the packages cannot be installed, you will probably need to activate extra repositories (like described here)

Might be a problem with the (missing) bios. Did you config your paths as and bios path/files as I asked? And saved the config of course.

What about:

/opt/gngeo/bin/gngeo -B PutBiosPathHere /home/user/MyDocs/aof.zip

And fill in your own biospath instead.

It wouldn't harm if you also checked other forum posts on maemo.org or just googled a bit. There is a lot of information to be found on howto setup gngeo in general.

Not every game may work with gngeo. Especially more recent games can give issues. SNK later tried to copyprotect there games more and more to prevent piracy.

But I am not the author of gngeo, so I cannot help you with those issues.

modify romrc file equivalent with our game's rom from /home/opt/gngeo/share/gngeo/romrc.d/

open game's rom and romrc file and check path equality.

sorry for my bad english

Re: [Announce] GnGeo-gui
 
You sure your bios are in the right location? What message comes if run from Xterminal? You need to have all the 23 Main neogeo bios.

Google neogeo.zip. It is 1.2 MB size.

kybo 2011-05-09 18:59

Re: [Announce] GnGeo-gui
 
thank you my friend,

I renamed sfix.sfix to sfix.sfx and now its ok !

Re: [Announce] GnGeo-gui
 
just gotta love playing samurai showdown on the phone. great for those boring trips on the train. :) only problem is it's a bit unstable, the slightest interruption (phone call, press the volume key) and it quits the game. damn it, gotta start all over again (it has no save-state option either!).

kudos to the gngeo-gui author though for putting this piece together.

Re: [Announce] GnGeo-gui
 
I could install the gngeo-gui, some updates appeared and there was gngeogui update, I didn't know I had installed it, anyway, it is done. Sometimes the emulation is under 52/60 fps, but I am getting 23/31 fps now, will run from gngeo-gui, then from Xgngeo, then from the XTerminal to check the differences. Tip for people, leave Raster effect unmarked (configurations), it makes the videos slow. And emulations is better after reboot and overclocked to 800 MHz.

Emulators aren't games. Games are games.

An emulator is legal and freely distributable program that "emulates" the hardware that older computers/arcade cabinets ran.

On top of that hardware you must add the operating system that used to run on that hardware. This is refereed to as the BIOS or "Basic Input Output System". The BIOS files are copyrighted and NOT free to distribute.

On top of THAT, you need the actual games to play on this emulated arcade cabinet. These games are usually captured as ROM images. ROMs are NOT FREE and not free to distribute.

What I do, is check if the file "sfix.sfx" is present in the bios map, to guess that the bios files itself are placed there. In my opinion, this file should always be present, but I could be wrong. I will check your bios from megaupload once I am home.

Samipower, you should follow my simple Tutorial and skip the XGngeo part and use gngeo-gui instead or like me have both of them installed.
