attract mode keeping focus

Attract-Mode Support > General

(1/3) > >>

alsosprachzoroaster:
I recently rebuilt my Mame cabinet using Ubuntu 15.10. I'm getting a strange error when launching games from Attract-Mode. I'm using P1 Button 1 to select the game within Attract-Mode, but when the game launches, if I press P1 B1 in game, it launches another copy of the currently selected game in Attract Mode.

I've tried setting my window mode from Fill Screen to fullscreen to no effect.

mondaiji:
Seeing as I just read a similar post. To Quote.

General rule, if your emulator works on the command line it should work with AM. Post your config, so you can get help.

omegaman:
Also-

In your mame.cfg try setting video options to maximize = 1 instead of 0.

alsosprachzoroaster:
I'll give that a try and report back.

I should say that I'm running Lubuntu rather than stock Ubuntu, if that makes a difference.

I've also tried 1.6.0 attract-mode as well as building from git, same error occurs.
