Comment 3 for bug 861009

the temporary solution I am using is I opened it and have the settings how they need to be to open..... run the following to stop any configuration changes being made (note you mus be in your ~/.zsnes folder

sudo chown root zsnesl.cfg; sudo chmod a-w zsnesl.cfg; sudo chattr +i zsnesl.cfg

this will lock it into opening how you last opened it...

note: on first open when your setting your preferences (before you lock it down), navigate to your roms folder so it will open there from now on
