Other emulators that offer GUI key remaps usually detect the key that you press when prompted, could we get that?
cddiede,

I agree with you that a key pressing mechanism would be more user friendly. It would require a keystroke translation back to the key codes and a new key config interface. Not being an experienced Python/QT programmer, I think it will be quite hard to implement for me. I might have a look at it, but will most likely not change the interface on short notice.

Thanks for your constructive suggestion anyway.

Sometimes a restart of gngeo-gui has to be done to make settings active. Did you try that?
I assume gngeo without gngeo-gui itself is working okay? So you can start games from the command line?
Do you encounter error messages, are all the paths set correctly (especially romrc and roms)?

It should contain all the game info files (<game-name>.rc). Without content, gngeo-gui will not display the game names.

Maybe it's an idea to install the gngeo debian package I uploaded yesterday? It contains this files.

Just to be sure: I am talking about the gngeo package, not the gngeo-gui deb package. gngeo_0.7.0-1_armel.deb should install this rc files in /opt/gngeo/share/gngeo/romrc.d

Then that part looks fine for now... and the Neo Geo roms: are they (zipped) in the proper folder? I suppose so, because you can use gngeo to start games from the command prompt?

Do you get proper output from
/opt/gngeo/bin/gngeo --scandir <YourMapWithRoms>
