PCSX2 0.9.3 Released for Linux!

[KhaaL]

Is there any chance that we might see PCSX2 & plugins to run games released as .debs? I've tried compiling it and my hair turned grey in the (failing) process.

[Kallewoof]

Thanks a lot for taking the time to clarify, barius!

I ran into a bit of trouble when I did this.

Install from Synaptic this - libglew1.4-dev

[GSF1200S]

Well, I got 0.9.4 running according to this howto, but it says it needs to be configured and complains that it cannot find the /plugins and /bios- any ideas?

thats the last lines of the error that i get when installing... can someone help?

[gigaferz]

I found a deb package for pcsx2 @ getdeb

I installed it but I experienced an error because i have no graphics card

Check it out on the official page, here!

There are 32-bit and 64-bit binaries, as well as an SVN repository.

I'm running Edgy, and I managed to compile the SVN, so here is a mini-howto for compilation. This is by no means comprehensive, as who knows what -dev packages you might be missing that I've picked up somewhere along the line.

I KNOW it requires:

libbz2-dev
subversion
libjpeg62-dev
build-essential
libgtk2.0-dev
libxxf86vm-dev
x11proto-xf86vidmode-dev
automake1.9
Nvidia Cg-Toolkit (available HERE)

The automake version is important, as it will spit all sorts of errors if you have an earlier version.

It PROBABLY requires:
libglu1-mesa-dev

I can't actually say it needs that for certain, only that I have it and the INSTALL file says you need OpenGL libs in order to compile.

-----------

Okay, so let's grab our required things:

sudo apt-get install subversion libjpeg62-dev build-essential libgtk2.0-dev libxxf86vm-dev x11proto-xf86vidmode-dev automake1.9 libbz2-dev

Our maybe required things:

sudo apt-get install libglu1-mesa-dev

The SVN code:

svn co https://pcsx2.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/pcsx2 pcsx2

Aaaand build it!

cd pcsx2
sh build.sh all

And hopefully everything should build!

EDIT: libbz2-dev is required for the ISO plugins to compile

how can i unistall everthing? is there a script or something?

[Zzzach]

I don't get the point of this if it can't run any games You can buy a ps2 for like $100.

I don't get the point of this if it can't run any games You can buy a ps2 for like $100.

PS2s won't be around forever. I still play Genesis games sometimes on an emulator, so I imagine ten years from now I'll still want to play some PS2 games.

As for why do this now; I'd rather play PS2 games on my laptop, which is portable, than my PS2, which is not.
