UAE in Ubuntu Linux

[AmigaFreak]

I can't get UAE to run under my Ubuntu Linux!
It says every time "Cannot display UAE...etc..etc."

Help me!

[SamuraiCrow]

I think I heard somewhere that Ubuntu didn't come with SDL installed or something.  BTW why are you using UAE instead of EUAE the latter one being more up-to-date?

[AmigaFreak]

Where would I get this "EUAE?"

[SamuraiCrow]

Here!

[AmigaFreak]

OK, now, Ive transferred my Kick31.ROM over from my WINUAE machine and I transferred over my Workbench folder (Emulated HDD) over too. BUT I cant get workbench to load! over here on EUAE! It just goes to the CLI with the "1>" prompt

What does your .uaerc configuration look like?

[AmigaFreak]

I dont know how to make one, do you have an example one?

the configuration.doc is confusing

Hiya, the ~/.uaerc file can be generated automatically using the config GUI.  If when you start E-UAE you do not get a configuration dialog, run ./configure --help in the source code directory and examine the arguments to configure the GUI.  Being at work, I don't have a source tree handy to tell you explicitly what to configure ;-)  In my experience it is automatically enabled if you have GTK2 dev packages installed on your machine.

The config dialog should be fairly easy to drive, let us know if you have issues with it!  You need to hit "save" to generate the ~/.uaerc file.

I setup the "Workbench" HDD in the HDD window, and I click save and click "reset" but I still either get"1>" or and error in AmigaDOS about an application not being able to be run.

Any ideas?

Oh and my config files wont save.

Go into the directory where all your Amiga files are, and do the following:

chmod -R u+rwx .

You need the dot at the end.  That should fix it, be warned though, it makes everything read/write/execute from your current directory on down.

Thanks!

I got Workbench to successfully load, but I seem to get an error during boot with Picasso96, but it boots anyways.

I downloaded that game Ive been wanting to download (mechforce) from Aminet, but Im having problems with it.
