PCSX can't run games from CD


I installed it using the Slackbuild over at slackbuilds.org

Using Slackware 12.2

Here's the output from the terminal:
Code:
steven@slackware-desktop:~$ pcsx

Checking plugin_is_available - libDFSound.so
Checking plugin_is_available - libDFCdrom.so

DFInput warning: config file not found.
The program '<unknown>' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)'.
  (Details: serial 29 error_code 2 request_code 1 minor_code 0)
  (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
   that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
   To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
   option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
   backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)

Nevermind, the solution seems to be to use the "xvideo" plugin instead of the "opengl" one
