M.A.M.E. Cabinet
The Unallocated Space Mame Cabinet started as a joint project between C-P and Crypt0s that is built out of an original 1982 Mrs. PacMan Machine.
Hardware
The original parts still in the cabinet are as follows:
- Cabinet itself
- Glass cover for the screen
- Plastic light cover
- Light fixture assembly
- Motherboard Mounts
Generation 1
There is currently a modern motherboard and speaker setup running inside of the mame cabinet which runs Debian Linux with a cabrio GUI frontend to choose games, which are then executed by mame.
Crypt0s built the hardware and painted it C-P built the software frontend from cabrio and tweaked it.
Generation 2
Operating system was switched to Windows 7 with the MaLa frontend GUI.
Due to the hard drive starting to die, backups were made and switched to an SSD.
Generation 3
During the hackathon on Feb 10th, 2024, the SSD was set up with Ubuntu 22.04 to migrate away from the unsupported OS. A frontend has not been selected yet.
