The error you got initially..

I did this...

wget http://www.zimmers.net/anonftp/pub/cbm/crossplatform/emulators/VICE/old/vice-1.5-roms.tar.gz

cp -a vice-1.5-roms/data/* /usr/lib/vice/


then it will work.  Its happened to me in Debian 7.


EDIT: Thats basically what CritAnime is saying to do.

I will be able to try this Wednesday, but what does it do?  Use older ROMs?

Those are the roms I used.  I dont know the actual differences but...honestly..its  a C64..I would think those are just plain stock roms.


On a side note, I've had VICE installed on other distros and moved to different laptops..  The last incarnation, I basically just have a directory with VICE in it, no need to install anything I dont think.  You just run it out of there.  I'll check..and if thats the case, I can archive it all up and post up a download link.   I'll check when I fly back from Chicago today.


EDIT:  I just logged into my server.. what I have been running in the past is WinVICE 1.6 under Wine and it worked great.  I can tar that up for you.  Also, I'll download LUbuntu and install it in virtualbox to see if I can recreate what you're doing...that'll be later tonight.   There should be no reason we cant get this knocked out.
