[mythtv-users] MythGame - fullscreen xmame

I have fceu and snes9x both working in fullscreen under MythGame, but 
xmame still insists on being windowed.  Can anyone share what they have 
as their command setting to get xmame to use fullscreen mode?  Are you 
using xmame.x11 or xmame.SDL?

I can get xmame.SDL to run fullscreen if I run it from an xterm, but 
when I try using 'xmame.SDL -fullscreen' as the command in MythGame it 
won't even display the roms in the listing.  Even though in the 
mamesettings table the fullscreen field is set to 1, it seems to do 
nothing of the sort if I just put in 'xmame.x11' or 'xmame.SDL' as the 
command to run.  Looking at the code it appears that MythGame is 
supposed to tack on the correct command-line paramters to get it into 
fullscreen.  Why would it not be doing so?

Thanks,
Mike
