cingb --- FAQ
I will include some hints here.
Ask and you'll get an answer.
Q0. Where do I get gameboy (gameboy
color) roms ?
A0. You can buy them in a supermarket
(aka cartridges) .
It is NOT allowed to play roms
in form of files, if you don't own
the original cartridges.
Q1. I try to launch cingb on the
framebuffer device, but it seems,
that it doesn't work. I get this
- message
- Error: FBIOGET_FSCREENINFO
A1. Perhaps the rights for the frame-
buffer device are not set right.
Try this:
crw-rw-r-- # root video 29,0 ###### fb0
Don't forget to join the group "video". Check your group-id by typing "id" on the command-line.
Q2. The sound often skips.
What should I do ?
A2. The sound generation hasn't been
optimized, yet.
But it should work at workstations,
which are better than a Pentium
MMX 233.
Don't complain about headache please.
Q3. I cannot run CINGB.EXE for MS-DOS !
A3. CINGB uses lots of memory which
cannot be provided in DOS real-mode.
That's why you will need some files
from the DJGPP website.
Please follow the instructions there
and install the DPMI32 support.
