I can put together a quick guide on compiling with the SFML binaries downloaded off their site.

I haven't used attract mode in a cab yet but i've got it on a live usb and have been booting up random PC's at work to show friends & test CHD games on hardware.

no issues yet.

I don't think SFML 2 is in the current Debian repositories yet.
I had to use testing as of a few months ago.

I have installed AM on pclinuxOS using the compiled linux libraries off the SFML website.
This weekend i'm going to try it on Slitaz linux which is a minimal distro's

That's how wah!cade went for me also.
It installed and ran but even the basest theme pegged the CPU.

every time I download a full set of ROMs I delete those types of games so I don't have to deal with them again.

General / installing attract mode on linux question

« on: September 09, 2014, 07:20:48 PM »

My distro lacked the depends to compile SFML in 64 bit.
I found some info online and decided to give something a try.

So I downloaded the 64bit linux SFML binaries off the site, copied the 3 folders in the archive to my /USR directory.
Ran the following commands as SU:

ldconfig
export "LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/path/to/lib_folder/"

and compiled after installing attract-mode depends.
it worked and attract starts up & appears to run just fine.
will I have issues down the road or do you think i'll be ok?
