Hi I want to install PCSX2 on Ubuntu 10.04 x64, but the dependencies listed on the PCSX2 website [[COLOR="Blue"]_HERE_[/COLOR]]("http://pcsx2.net/downloads.php?p=publicbeta") look a little vague and don't seem to listed in Synaptic Package Manager!?

Has anyone installed this? What are the exact names of the packages needed?

Thanks in advance

Hi gdbutcher.

That site is for windows only.

There is a 30 day free trial download.

No, it's not. If you would have actually gone to the site and scrolled down, there is a section clearly labelled "[SIZE=2]PCSX2 Linux 0.9.7 Beta r3119 (06/01/10)"[/SIZE]

It's actually an infinite number of days free download. Because it's freeware. It's free. It doesn't cost anything. Because it's free, and not a trial.

64bit isn't supported and this is the main reason I've opted for a 32bit install. You may try running pcsx2 via a 32bit chroot, that may be the only way.

Hmmm.....Can you use all your ram in a 32 bit version? I have 4gb.

Is that why I cant get Fallout 3 to play?

Man, I wish I hadn't posted that.:redface:

gdbutcher, this looks a little better,( er, maybe not) but it says only 32bit is supported.

Has anyone gotten PCSX2 to work on Ubuntu 10.04 64bit? I guess via "chroot" btw I have no clue what chroot is. Is there a better emulator out there?

I'm afraid it won't run properly.
