Only five video resolutions available (SOLVED)

[KStorm]

I just installed ZSNES 1.51 from source to my PCLinuxOS partition. That went smoothly enough, but I have only five video resolutions available; I'm looking for a way to get a windowed 640x480 (opengl preferred but not absolutely necessary) but for some reason, any changes i make to zsnesl.cfg are not retained. I appreciate the help, of course.

"Installed ZSNES from source"??

You need to compile ZSNES from source. If the configure script did not detect the GL headers, you need to make sure they (IIRC, it is the mesa-common dev package) are installed and run the script again.

Sorry. I ran the following, according to the FAQ page:

cd ~
rm -rf zsnes
svn co https://svn.bountysource.com/zsnes/trunk/ zsnes
cd zsnes/src
./autogen.sh
make
su
make install
exit

You want to get the official source, if not for your own good. If you feel like using SVN, at least make sure to post the log that autogen.sh will generate.

Done.
