Re: Packaging emulators in DGT - gmameui, pcsx2, Mupen64
I recall there are a lot of emulators about to be packaged at Debian.
emulators like:
fbzx (zx-spectrum)
fuse (zx-spectrum)
lisaem (lisa)
simcoupe (SamCoupe)
and many others (the ammount of emulators about to be packaged at
Debian is huge!) - as you can imagine, each hardware made in the whole
computer history has an emulator for Linux, and most of them are not
packaged yet, still only available as tar.gz sources, which format is
not that friendly for newbies
uzebox emulator would be great being packaged as well - information of
how to compile it can be find at http://identi.ca/group/uzebox posts
cheers!
