Time to give this some love, I guess. Any specific dependances?
RE: VisualBoyAdvance-M SVN877 [linux only release at this moment] - Zach Thibeau - 06-14-2009 11:43 AM
mostly related to gtk something I should of added to my post, you will need to install libglademm-2.4 and libgtkglextmm-x11-1.2

Awesome, thought this project had been abandoned! Great to see I was wrong.
RE: VisualBoyAdvance-M SVN877 [linux only release at this moment] - Zach Thibeau - 06-28-2009 06:00 AM
heck it's far from abandoned
in fact we are planning some awesome stuff atm just the reason why there hasn't been too much news about vba-m releases (other than atm bug fixes that mudlord has been working on 
RE: VisualBoyAdvance-M SVN877 [linux only release at this moment] - yumyum - 06-28-2009 06:27 AM
One question, does the linux version not have a throttle feature ? I installed like demonstrated on your sourceforge page.
svn co https://vbam.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/vbam vbam
etc etc etc.
Will it be implemented ?
RE: VisualBoyAdvance-M SVN877 [linux only release at this moment] - mudlord - 06-29-2009 07:39 AM
yes, zach is right, there's loads of stuff im sure we want to happen. Its just the matter of me finding motivation to really get into things.
RE: VisualBoyAdvance-M SVN877 [linux only release at this moment] - inukaze - 07-24-2009 06:02 AM
:O I Have this version, sorry for the before Question jeje :$
Well , someone know , in which specific version, be included the "Cheats" GUI ?
I Wanna to try something, but i need to use the "cheats"
Plz somebody tell me, i can use the "Xploder" cheats codes with VBA-M ?
or just GameShark , GameGenie ??
RE: VisualBoyAdvance-M SVN877 [linux only release at this moment] - Zach Thibeau - 07-24-2009 06:21 AM
the vba-m gtk gui atm doesn't support a cheats dialogue buuut the sdl binary does support the cheats via commandline which I never really got into so I can't really help you there, I'm mostly a windows user that can get around linux when it comes to compiling and such

Hi there , you know the emulator Snes9x ??? well BearOSO , makeit an Awesome GTK Port called Snes9x-gtk , for debians users you can add the PPA Repository with the Follows command in a terminal :
gpg --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net --recv C71839136CF5CE97 && gpg --export --armor C71839136CF5CE97 | sudo apt-key add -
sudo sh -c 'echo "deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/bearoso/ppa/ubuntu lsb-release main #Snes9x-gtk" >> /etc/apt/sources.list'
sudo apt-get update
If you wanna PPA with VBAM Gtk :
gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv EEB23232 && gpg --export --armor EEB23232 | sudo apt-key add -
sudo sh -c 'echo "deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ripps818/ppa/ubuntu lsb-release main #VisualBoyAdvance-Merge" >> /etc/apt/sources.list'
you can use the Synaptic or Adept or Kpackageit or the terminal with the follows commands :
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install snes9x-gtk vbam vbam-dbg
That is all
============================================
Snes9x-gtk Forum : http://www.snes9x.com/phpbb2/viewtopic.php?p=27084#27084
Well you can tell to BearOSO , to Help you with the GTK Version ???
Well i think the GVBAM need more things , for example when i Run "Emesene" if i run too Gvbam and load ROM , the ROM Ever Start , but i run Snes9x-gtk , works perfectly ^^
and i see the GTK Gui Need more Options what the emulator have , for Example "Cheats" ( GameShark , CodeBreaker , and more )
Well the "Bilinear" i think dont be a Filter in that list , i think the Bilinear and Bilinear Plus should be Options Above the Filter , to Use 2 Things for Example , in a Monitor with much Resolution , if you play in FullScreen i think the best options for Video in cases like that
1 - Activate Bilinear Plus , 2 - Use a Filter like 2xSai , and this make more better the Graphics ^^
Well this is just an idea , but if possible i like it ^^
Well i wanna make a Spanish Translations for the GTK Gui of VBAM , i make it translate to Spanish in Snes9x-gtk ^^
Im User of AMD64 ^^ (Now Using Ubuntu Karmic Koala 9.10)
Well GoodBye , Thanks for Readme , and i sorry for my bad english :$

Hello,
as I use Fedora, I cant use the .deb file. Is there a way to generate a zip file with the necessary files? Like mupen64 does? (http://code.google.com/p/mupen64plus/)
It would be terrific
In emulation of the internal clock in the Linux version. - onizou - 05-29-2010 05:59 PM
(Translated from French by Google Translation ... sorry!)
Hello!
I copy here a message posted earlier on the forum ngemu.com, because I just see that there is a topic dedicated to the Linux version of VBA-M here.
Quote:Good morning.forums.ngemu.com
I use the Linux version of VBA-M, which works much better with me that VBA!
However, I find this Linux version is much neglected in comparison to the Windows version: It miss many features.
The feature that most needed in my opinion is the emulation of the internal clock of the GBA -called "real time clock" I think. The latter is essential to fully enjoy games like Pokemon.
Do you plan to put in the Linux version of VBA-M? Or at least add the essential functions of the type of emulation of the internal clock?
Texte original en français:
Bonjour.
J'utilise la version Linux de VBA-M qui fonctionne bien mieux chez moi que VBA!
Cependant, je constate que cette déclinaison Linux est nettement négligée en comparaison de la version Windows: Lui manquent beaucoup de fonctionnalités.
La fonction faisant le plus cruellement défaut selon moi est l'émulation de l'horloge interne de la GBA -nommée "real time clock" je crois. Cette dernière est indispensable pour profiter pleinement de certains jeux, dont les Pokémons.
Prévoyez-vous de mettre au niveau la version Linux de VBA-M? Ou au moins d'y ajouter les fonctions essentielles, du type de l'émulation de l'horloge interne?
Nizou
RE: VisualBoyAdvance-M SVN877 [linux only release at this moment] - Squall Leonhart - 05-29-2010 06:32 PM
as i said on ngemu, the same basic functionality should be included in the linux ports, just a matter of ensuring the function is enabled on compile, and that the setting is set in the configuration for the emulator.
RE: VisualBoyAdvance-M SVN877 [linux only release at this moment] - onizou - 05-29-2010 07:08 PM
I installed the deb package available, ie the version SNV877.
Here's a screenshot of the Windows version SNV926, emulated by WINE, showing the menu where the option to emulate the internal clock appears (selected):
![[Image: capture-vba-m-windows-svn926.png]](http://www.zimagez.com/miniature/capture-vba-m-windows-svn926.png)
Now, here is a screenshot of the Linux version SNV877:
![[Image: capture-vba-m.png]](http://www.zimagez.com/miniature/capture-vba-m.png)
We see the same menu where the option cited is not available this time, like many others too, not only in this menu...
RE: VisualBoyAdvance-M SVN877 [linux only release at this moment] - Squall Leonhart - 05-30-2010 01:19 AM
the linux gui is half arsed, but the settings should all still be available in the configuration file.
RE: VisualBoyAdvance-M SVN877 [linux only release at this moment] - onizou - 05-30-2010 10:25 AM
Google translator does not know "arsed". ^^'
However, the option is not present in the configuration file:

Do you plan to improve a bit Linux interface of VBA-M? ...
RE: VisualBoyAdvance-M SVN877 [linux only release at this moment] - Squall Leonhart - 05-30-2010 01:20 PM
try adding rtcEnabled=1
RE: VisualBoyAdvance-M SVN877 [linux only release at this moment] - onizou - 05-30-2010 08:23 PM
I added the entry to the end of "[Core]", "emulator_type=0" under.
Unfortunately, it is deleted when I run VBA-M.
RE: VisualBoyAdvance-M SVN877 [linux only release at this moment] - Squall Leonhart - 05-31-2010 06:53 AM
tracking this as bug Synchronise Platform feature/function set.
RE: VisualBoyAdvance-M SVN877 [linux only release at this moment] - onizou - 05-31-2010 08:15 AM
Thank you very much Squall Leonhart!

I hope this feature will be added soon. ^^
