Open terminal.app and type

./path/to/revolution -h [RETURN]

You should see some info like this, if revolution thinks your system

external startup
MetaCard 2.5G1 Copyright 1992-2001 MetaCard Corporation

Easier at this point to get the metacard.com engine because it's got 
less library dependencies I believe.
