Zonemad96,

Seems highly unlikely. You could try running it in dosbox, however the wifi drivers would not be supported.

Hello,
Okay, gngb -Y –rex=320×240 did it for me.
Thanks,

Does anyone know if there is a way to change the screen size when playing gbc games. I’m using gngb and it’s only using about 1/3 or the screen. I’ve messed with the options a bit(res=), but it didn’t do anything.
Thanks,

Chris

Hunter,mozzwald: I created a copy of the image.
Its a little rough right now. But it shows what im trying to accomplish.

You are welcome to try it out and give any feedback.

Mozzwald: Im going to use your script which calls xmessage in it. I really liked that idea. I think I can incorporate it into my netconfig script.

Check this example out. Its a little simpler. I borrowed it from a Linux forum.

#!/bin/sh
XMESSAGE=$(which gxmessage) || XMESSAGE=xmessage

$XMESSAGE ” Logout Selections ” -center -buttons “Cancel”:1,”Reboot”:2,”Shutdown”:3,”Exit X”:4
case $? in
1) exit 0 ;;
2) reboot ;;
3) halt ;;
4) killall matchbox-window-manager ;;
esac

I'm loving those screenshots, soundguy. I've been trying to set up a decent gui with the debian image. Currently I have openbox running with lxpanel from LXDE. It seems to run fairly well. There are some screenshots posted at my site if you want to take a look. Can't wait to try out your image soundguy. Let us know when/where it can be downloaded.

FCE Ultra NES EMULATOR:
So, I got this working very well, How can I get it full screen? I cant seem to stretch it to the size of a terminal window and full screen passes an error.

Hunter, I wrote a shell script to call a shutdown when the battery gets low, as well as provide warnings with xmessage. Im testing it out now…

I think It can be executed from a .xinitrc without any problems.
