Armin Schmidhuber wrote in to inform that ZXMameCD 0.48 (32-bit) has been released today. It includes SVN revision 240 of QMC2 (0.1.b11), which is currently under development.

Armin also sent a KHotKeys (KDE) definition file for QMC2, which can be downloaded from the download section. Simply import this file into KHotKeys, redefine your keys according to your cabinet controller (an X-Arcade stick for example) and control QMC2 w/o a keyboard.

Note that this is meant to be used as a temporary workaround for QMC2′s yet missing keyboard & shortcut remap functionality. It is planned to be included in 0.1.b11 final, so it will not require KDE when it’s finished.
