GNgeo files sometimes saty on home\user or opt\user, depennds of how the package was configurate to. Anyway to see where are your GNgeo files you should have Filebox installed or any other File Manager with root access. Roms are alwais in .zip, LEAVE THEM LIKE THAT, inside them usually have several files .rom .
To change key inputs, edit file ( gngeorc ) with Notes following asciitable values. Some games will not work. For example, XGngeo GUI app already recognizes the games that work by showing their full name while browsing. I have a Tutorial in another thread, maybe a video tutorial would be good. Will do it as soon as I get a camera. After that you see how easy is to have gngeo up and running full speed, I use to overclock to 800, 900 just to have more fps, sound is set to 44100 for a better stereo experience. I'm pasting the Tut below here, you can just skipp XGngeo part and install gngeo-gui application instead.


TUTORIAL for GNgeo (NeoGeo emulator)
I am following third parties instructions, so I am not responsable for any damage you may have. Try not using other apps while running GNgeo.

--Check your App Man to check if you have GNgeo installed, if you have, remove it.

--Download Emulator files from here:
http://hotfile.com/dl/108748653/a716...ry.tar.gz.html
Save it to your MyDocs folder (32GB) on N900,

--Using X Terminal type:
cd /home/user
tar xvzf MyDocs/gngeo-0.7-n900-binary.tar.gz

--Install XGngeo v. 16-2 from App Man (optional)

--create a folder 'Roms' on your MyDocs folder, drop all the bios you find (unziped) and your neogeo games in zip format.

--on X Terminal type 'gngeo/bin/gngeo yourgamename' press Enter.

--Install Filebox from App Man (You'll need it to access home\user\.gngeo\gngeorc file. long press on gngeorc, edit p1key line for keys mapping (According to the ascii table ( www.asciitable.com ), don't mess too much with this file or create a backup first if you want to try some configurations out.

Under important paths, the first line is your bios ( /home/user/MyDocs/Roms ), the second is your drives ( /home/user/gngeo/share/gngeo/romrc.d ), third is emulator itself 'executable' gngeo v 0.7 ( /home/user/gngeo/bin/gngeo ). Those paths should be the correct ones and all of them should be geen instead of red. If you've done everything right, you will be able to play Neogeo games on your N900 after it.

If the link is not working let me know, just tested and it's still working.
Good luck to all.
For people that are less comfortable with x-terminals and editing of files, this may be an alternative:
Yesterday, I uploaded a gngeo package to the extra devel repository, so gngeo can also be installed using the application manager. Combined with a gngeo-gui installation, it only needs the bios files and zipped roms in certain locations. Keys can be reconfigured in gngeo-gui using ascii codes.

@gleydsonpr:
In the latest version of gngeo-gui I dropped the (not usable?) joystick enable-button and replaced it with the sample rate option. First time I played with the different sound rates, and as you said, differences can clearly be noticed in sound quality.
