Works perfectly. All C64 software works. Of course it required to get the rom file to run properly.
This is probably the best 8-bit Commodore emulator around. Installing from software manager leave you a little in the dark as to what you have to do as far as installing the roms required, so perhaps that's why the negative reviews. In anycase, you want to find the installation (/usr/lib/vice probably) and in there are folders for each of the machines. You'll want to put files called 'chargen', 'kernal' and 'basic' in the C64 folder before x64 will run. Similar for rest of them, but that should get you started. Good luck!!
Build and Install VICE 3.5 for Linux Mint (Mate 20.1 Ulyssa) Download Vice 3.5 Tarball (vice-3.5.tar.gz) from: https://vice-emu.sourceforge.io/index.html#download Extract the source to a directory you have full read/write permissions. Read and follow this file located in the distribution. .../vice-3.5/doc/building/Linux-GTK3-Howto.txt After you have run the 'sudo make install' listed in the instructions, you will have as below. /usr/local/bin/ contains the emulator executables. (ie. x64sc etc) /usr/local/share/vice/ contains everything else.
I am using Mint 16.2 and it won't even attempt tp run.....seems it may need an upgrade
Need to download the ROM images from the source code and copy over, but once you do ... so many memories C64
No worky-worky. Tried each one individually, nothing at all. Not a window, not a busy cursor, nothing. (Don't actually know if busy cursors exist in Linux Mint.)
It does not start and run. I have a fresh install of Linux Mint 18 Cinnamon 64, And this Emulator does not run. So I give bad review.
Works fine, just needs roms for C64 etc, get them from Windows release and stick them in appropriate folder in home-folder!
