when I start snes9x it just sort of hangs for about a minute and spits out this error:

Xlib: extension "XFree86-DGA" missing on display ":0.0".

then it starts up and seems to work fine.

Ola,

look in your X Config for:

---
Option "omit xfree86-dga" # don't initialise the DGA extension
---

if it's not their, put it in an restart the X server.

maybe this helps.

so long

I checked that was allready there. so I took it out and that made other things not work and didn't help so I put it back. I chmod 1777 snes9x and now this only happens sometimes and other times it starts right up.

Might be worth a try:

Code:
emerge snes9express


It's a very nice front end for snes9x.
