====== SDLMAME 0.136 on Fedora Core 13 ======

Edited grub.conf:

</code>

Note the "fbcon=rotate:3" which rotates the display.

modified /etc/X11/xinit/Xclients to contain only one exec line at the bottom, all others commented out:
<code>
if [ -x /usr/bin/mame ] ; then
     /usr/bin/mame -video opengl -norotate mspacmnf
fi
</code>
modified rc.local: 
<code>
#startup
initctl start plymouth-shutdown &
export HOME=/root
pulseaudio --start &
startx && shutdown -h now &
initctl start tty TTY=/dev/tty2 &
initctl start tty TTY=/dev/tty3 &
</code>
modified /etc/init/tty.conf:
<code>
exec /sbin/mingetty --autologin mspacman $TTY
</code>
====== To-Do ======
  * Modify Plymouth boot splash theme to be ms. pacman figure...
  * Disable any Mouse in X since the pointer comes back after changing to/from a TTY.
  * Rotate vesa/standard video too?  (done- but how did i do it?)
  * Clean-up distro & create clean image of it
  * Turn off all logging and writing to files & mount all filesystems read-only
  * Convert startup from xinitrc to an /etc/init.d style service- this will allow a graceful stop of mame via kill -3 or kill -15 so state is preserved
