Did you try the RetroPie Project?

I’ve tried a bit and it auto installs a lot of emulators and with only a bit of configuration you have the frontEnd EmulStation Working and a lot of emulators.

I’ve find it easy and powerfull

I have been watching the retropie project since the beginning. It’s really awesome work 🙂

I think next week I’ll devote some time to testing it out more.

Hi again,
Now I have finally solved the issue with being able to use the GPIO to uinput, in order for the advMame to receive Coin-in, start game and ESC.
I used several days browsing the www trying all sorts of sending keystrokes to PID etc etc.
As you probably see from my previous emails I am a virgin to Linux.

The solution was too easy. I do not understand why noone has found it yet…. ;O)

By coinsidence I looked fro something else on the web and someone wrote that it is not possible towork two keyboards together. hmmm.
So I simply disconnected my USB keyboard and booted up without and then the uinput worked with coin in. Juubiii!
Now I can run the uinput Python script with the joystick and key input from GPIO.
fex:
uinput.KEY_5
uinput.BTN_JOYSTICK
uinput.ABS_X + (0, 255, 0, 0)

Hope you can publish the findings to all our fine people on your great website.
/Henrik
