I've been looking into something that emulates Gameboy Advance games with a gui. The best I've seen is a tie between VBA Express with gui adn VBAM as in as recently updated at a year ago. I also want it to work with my wireless logitech gamepad like every other emulator.

Is there any current stuff that'll work on 11.10?

vba-m IS current and it also provides a GUI but you need to install the vba-m-gtk package.
Here are the Links for the 64bit (http://sourceforge.net/projects/vbam/files/VBA-M%20svn%20r1042/vbam-gtk_1.8.0.1042-1_amd64.deb/download) and 32bit (http://sourceforge.net/projects/vbam/files/VBA-M%20svn%20r1042/vbam-gtk_1.8.0.1042-1_i386.deb/download) Version

I thought VBA-m already had a Qt UI?

Any way, there is also Gambatte. Use either one of those two. They're the best and they're still in development unlike a lot of dead projects.

VBA-M doesn't have a GUI by default and Gambatte doesn't emulate GBA Games.

Opps, you're right. I was just going from memory with that one.

When I used VBA-M last it started by default with a Qt GUI, but that was a while ago.
