From: M.O.B. i L. on 6 Jul 2010 12:22 Is there a C64-emulator for Linux (Eeebuntu, Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Debian). I looked at VICE but I couldn't find any binaries. VICE is also not available in the distribution for Eeebuntu. I've tried to run the Windows-version (WinVICE) using Wine in Linux but it didn't work -- probably because of DirectX. I did try an Apple II-emulator for Windows (AppleWin) that worked using Wine in Linux.

In Ubuntu, there are different levels of packages: the normal, supported ones, the universe (not officially supported by Canonical but by the community) and the multiverse (not free). And, guess what ? http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/multiverse/v/vice/ , that's what. Probably you just forgot to enable the multiverse. Why not free? Probably because of the roms, but that's only a guess.

No need. As far as I understand he just doesn't know the names of the binaries. So needs to know "x64" or "x128". -- Andreas My Commodore 64 classic game music page at http://www.ankman.de/commodore-64-sid-music/ |
