cingb --- FAQ
----------------------------------------

I will include some hints here.
Ask and you'll get an answer.


----------------------------------------
Q0. Where do I get gameboy (gameboy 
    color) roms ?

A0. You can buy them in a supermarket
    (aka cartridges) .
    It is NOT allowed to play roms
    in form of files, if you don't own
    the original cartridges.

----------------------------------------
Q1. I try to launch cingb on the 
    framebuffer device, but it seems,
    that it doesn't work. I get this
    message:
    Error: FBIOGET_FSCREENINFO

A1. Perhaps the rights for the frame-
    buffer device are not set right.
    Try this:

    crw-rw-r-- # root video 29,0 ###### fb0

    Don't forget to join the group "video".
    Check your group-id by typing "id" on 
    the command-line.

----------------------------------------
Q2. The sound often skips. 
    What should I do ?

A2. The sound generation hasn't been 
    optimized, yet.
    But it should work at workstations,
    which are better than a Pentium 
    MMX 233.
    Don't complain about headache please.
    
----------------------------------------
Q3. I cannot run CINGB.EXE for MS-DOS !

A3. CINGB uses lots of memory which
    cannot be provided in DOS real-mode.
    That's why you will need some files 
    from the DJGPP website. 
    Please follow the instructions there 
    and install the DPMI32 support.
