still getting this problem, but now it won't even detect any rom in the default folder.

this is what my fbasdl.ini folder looks like

Code:

// The application version this file was saved from

nIniVersion 0x029721

// video mode 0 = standard SDL 1= (very expiermental) opengl



// use asm cpu cores (i.e. you need to buy a new PC)

bBurnUseASMCPUEmulation 1



// The paths to search for rom zips. (include trailing backslash)

szAppRomPaths[0] roms/

szAppRomPaths[1] /media/mmc1/roms/

szAppRomPaths[2]

szAppRomPaths[3]

szAppRomPaths[4]

szAppRomPaths[5]

szAppRomPaths[6]

szAppRomPaths[7]

Re: Final burn alpha port

I can't also define the rom path using a fbasdl.ini located in .config/fba.

Re: Final burn alpha port

It's my first time visiting maemo.org
i'm from china hehe:)

Re: Final burn alpha port

its not currently posible to set the rom directory it is hardcoded (it is on the pandora as well) to mydocs/roms. ill add setting the directory to the next version.

Re: Final burn alpha port

Good to see you did not just port FBA, but also are willing to polish it.

I had a small issue which the Capex installation, but could easily fix it

Code:

The following NEW packages will be installed:

  fba-capex

0 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

Need to get 0B/674kB of archives.

After this operation, 2130kB of additional disk space will be used.

(Reading database ... 61425 files and directories currently installed.)

Unpacking fba-capex (from .../fba-capex_1.0.1-1_armel.deb) ...

chown: /home/user/.config/fba: No such file or directory

dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/fba-capex_1.0.1-1_armel.deb (--unpack):

 subprocess pre-installation script returned error exit status 1

Errors were encountered while processing:

 /var/cache/apt/archives/fba-capex_1.0.1-1_armel.deb

E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

After a "mkdir /home/user/.config/fba" it worked. You mentions moving old configs to this location, but initial installs may result in this error.

I see Capex now shows all its know roms configs (5500). That means a lot of scrolling, even if you can jump to the first letter :)

Re: Final burn alpha port

You can also set it to only show avalible by pressing ctrl and changing a config parmeter (save as global).

as for the dirctory I acidently set the chown in preinst istead of post. I'll have to fix that.

Re: Final burn alpha port

Uploaded a new version of capex. Hopefully will fix issues with new installs.

Do people think the thread title should now be changed to include [Announce] ie is it good enough for normal users?

Re: Final burn alpha port

Sure, it is in the repo, so why not make it an announce.

I had the problem it could not find my roms anymore.
I created the symlink from /opt/maemo/usr/games/fba/roms to /home/user/MyDocs/roms but to no avail.

Afters some debugging I found out it was searching for the directory 265104. Created this symlink to /home/user/MyDocs/roms and now the roms are showing up again.
I don't know if it is just my issue...

Re: Final burn alpha port

loosing roms was a bug in capex (hapens when saving global config) newest version shoud fix that.

Re: Final burn alpha port

forgot to meantion you will need to delete or edit the rompath in capex.cfg
