but looking for the cause of the error, I found this 'This comes about because aclocal cannot find allegro.m4.' on here - http://wiki.allegro.cc/
If I look in the places pointed to by that error, allegro.m4 is nowhere to be found and it's not found by Dolphin when I do a search.
That'll probably be in the allegro dev package - try: yum install allegro-dev
Or: yum search allegro-dev
And install the dev packages.
I'd concur. I've got the 64-bit version running in Debian Testing.
Also, note that sound doesn't work on Linux because the original author never actually got round to implementing it (tho allegedly it worked at one point. by accident!). The Windows version does have sound and works fairly well under WINE.
That might be the way forward for me as I have the Windows version working fine under Windows 7. I have to say though that I would prefer a native version.
IME, there are quite a few gotchas getting started with RPCEmu, so the best place to ask questions is on their mailing list:
What are these gotchas? Are they linux-related issues or 'Acorn' side? I'm experienced with Acorn stuff having had their kit since 1981. Indeed I have 4 Risc PCs here now and all are working.
I'll certainly take a look at that to see if anybody has experienced the same problem as me.
