    I'm about to start a new build with a 15KHz 28" arcade monitor, ad I've some questions:

    1) in past (20 year ago :-) ) I made a cab with AdvMame/Menu, but today does it still makes sense? Everybody is using Batocera with 15KHz script. If I'm ok with only mame and 0.106 roms, AdvMame has someting more than Batocera?

    2) which linux kernel / distro is advisable to use for a new AdvMame build? I usually work with debian

    3) on hardware side I could use:
    - an Athlon K7 with AGP video card Geforce2 32Mb (or an AGP Matrox G200 8Mb)
    - a most modern PC with PCI Express ATI X800
    which will give me the best results in fidelity to originals in 15KHz?

    3) with the first option with AGP cards I could use linux frambuffer, does it mean I can have all the possibile modelines? or it depends also on the card model? in this case which is best between Geforce2 and G200 ?

    thanks
