ZSNES board

It took way too many hours to get zsnes up and running on my CentOS x86_64 boxes. No one seems to have put all the bits and pieces together in one place to make compiling the source easy. My instructions here are specific to CentOS 4 and 5 but should be helpful to those on other distros. The main is...

A GUI+cfg toggle option was added post ZSNES 1.51 (r4808), which can be obtained via SVN, however, don't complain to us if the audio is borked (assuming you paid no attention to any of the existing threads).

Thanks for the reply Starman. Yes, I had seen this suggestion posted previously. What I really need is some Linux- or Nvidia-specific advice. In the case of the Nvidia proprietary driver the setup should be as follows. Add to /etc/profile: export __GL_SYNC_TO_VBLANK=1 Add to /etc/X11/xorg.conf: Sect...

I've got zsnes 1.51 compiled and running on a couple of CentOS 4 & 5 boxes. However I'm seeing some screen "tearing" on some animations and full-screen scrolls. For example, the swinging pendulum that opens Chrono Trigger shows some tearing. I've done my research and tried various vide...
