1.0 is available from the Debian/Ubuntu Games Team PPA.

If you still want to use the .run, note that it's a 32bit binary, so if you have 64bit Xubuntu installed you may need 32bit libraries on...

Sure:

ssh -l user computerb

sudo shutdown -h now

Of course, the user you log into must be able to issue sudo commands.

I honestly would love it if there were some sort of option to show people that Unity isn't the only option. I'm not going to hate on unity here, even though I'm not a fan, but if someone else...

Because changing desktops to something else in Ubuntu is just an apt-get, logout, and login away! :)

Not sure what optimizations you've tried but have you at least enabled opengl and multithreading in mame.ini?

(Under PERFORMANCE OPTIONS: multithreading 1 and under VIDEO OPTIONS: video opengl)

I don't reboot unless absolutely necessary, making boot time kind of irrelevant. :)

Apparently the wine1.5-i386 package for 1.5.11 (which wine1.5 depends on) hasn't been made available yet and is breaking the dependency. Doing a policy query shows only 1.5.10 for it:


...

You need the program "PyLOTRO", the native launchers do not work at all.

Instructions are here.

Have you tried disabling PulseAudio? PA is nothing but a headache and a problem for me (your experience may differ) and I've benefited immensely by just removing it completely -- at the very least...

I get audio issues on a lot of things running in Wine if I keep PulseAudio installed and used. Myself, I just completely uninstall and disable PA from my system, but you can temporarily disable it...

For memory cards, make sure there are new, formatted cards in the Configuration->Memory Cards option.

You can only run the BIOS when you have a real Playstation BIOS image. The simulated BIOS...

It's in src/gfx.cc

Line 313 should be #else instead of #elif. That's not the only issue, however -- code is quite old and probably needs a lot of work to make runnable.

Try removing your settings (~/.pysolfc) and running again.

Wine creates its own "C drive" by default in your home directory under a hidden directory called .wine called drive_c -- by default, Steam would be in [your home directory]/.wine/drive_c/Program\...

Yes, all you should have to do is extract it in your baseq3 directory wherever ioquake3 is installed. Make sure you haven't extracted it into a subdirectory inside baseq3, the "xcsv_bq3hi-res.pk3"...

According to wine appdb some have had success with adding -nod3d9ex -- trying it with mine now.

Edit: -nod3d9ex added to the launch options of TF2 (right click game->Properties->Set Launch...

They've simplified the sound output to just use a single driver and dropped the configuration of it in the latest Wine versions since it's generally not needed any more.

I agree with the OS/2 guess. That sounds like it describes OS/2, and it could run DOS programs, which was one of the things Prince of Persia was released on.

Looking at the .deb file contents now, it should have a shortcut entry named VVVVVV -- not sure why it's not showing up. You should be able to manually run it from /usr/games/VVVVVV

Using desktop effects? That might be slowing things down. No idea why desktop effects are so popular when all it does is slow things down across the board. (And if you're using AMD/ATi or Nvidia,...

Slow motion? Everything runs exactly right here in mednafen. Were you using another emulator that ran things too fast, or maybe you're trying to run a different region ROM that originally ran at a...

I've found mednafen works the best for NES, every other emulator I get choppy performance as you are.

Windows is faster to boot because you need to reboot it so much :)

Seriously, most of my stuff is always on, even a netbook I use. Boot speeds aren't important to me. Besides, I'm sure that if...

You might try removing the ZSNES configuration file (probably in ~/.zsnes) and see if that helps. You'll have to do your settings again but if it works, it'd be worth the effort.

And snes9x-gtk...

Bumping this for possibly some insight. Basically the problem persists -- installing 32-bit packages on 64 bit Ubuntu is no longer possible, because --force-* no longer works (it gets immediately...
