I have a Aspire One ZG5 with the latest Linux mint installed (17 Cinnamon 32-bit, V. 2.2.13)
Kernel is 3.13.0-24-generic

CPU: Intel Atom N270 @ 1.60GHz x 1
RAM: 1.5 GB
GPU: Intel 945GSE Express integrated.

I installed mupen64plus from the software installer app that's included in linux mint, and ran mariokart from terminal using this command:

mupen64plus --resolution 1024x600 --fullscreen --saveoptions ~/Downloads/mariokart.z64

The game runs fine, no lag, but the screen is flickering/blinking.

I got a couple warnings:

  1. Video Warning: Failed to set GL_SWAP_CONTROL to 0. (it's 32)
  2. Video Warning: Failed to set GL_DEPTH_SIZE to 16. (it's 24)

The full log: http://pastebin.com/LyLBrfyJ

Any settings i could try out in the terminal?

Thanks in advance.

turbolego,

You can edit the config file "~/.config/mupen64plus/mupen64plus.cfg" to change
setting in the video plugin. If you are using Rice Video, try different
values for the "ScreenUpdateSetting" parameter. In the past, different values
here could fix flickering on some systems.

You can also try using different video plugins.
