PPSSPP on Ubuntu

[ASKidwai]

Hi guys,

I'm new here and love what you guys are doing. Some of you may know me from /talk, but anyway.

I don't have regular access to a Windows machine, and my primary is a Ubuntu one. My PSP got killed in an accident and I stumbled upon this solution. Anyway, how do I use PPSSPP on Ubuntu?

Sincerely,
ASKidwai

Just build the Qt or SDL version. Check the GitHub page for instructions.

Can somebody make a debian package or ppa?

Here's my debian package:

Code:

git clone git://github.com/hrydgard/ppsspp.git && cd ppsspp git submodule update -i ./b.sh cd build ./PPSSPPSDL

Enjoy

[cyclonmaster]

Thanks. going to try it. Is it use latest source code btw?

xsacha's steps will give you the latest and greatest, yes.

Builds with no issues and seems to work fairly well, although the UI could certainly scale better, and work better. It is hard to judge performance however, since AMD Linux drivers are absolutely horrible. My Nexus 7 is literally faster than a semi decent AMD APU on Linux

[xsacha]

You should be building the Qt UI instead, on Linux.

Here's my debian package:

Code:

git clone git://github.com/hrydgard/ppsspp.git && cd ppsspp git submodule update -i ./b.sh cd build ./PPSSPPSDL

Enjoy

But your little "deb" was for SDL, heh.

I assume Qt can build from cli too?

[xsacha]

Oh yeah.

Qt one is:

Code:

cd Qt qmake PPSSPPQt.pro && make ./PPSSPPQt

[cyclonmaster]

I got this error after ./b.sh

b.sh: line 3: cmake: command not found

[xsacha]

I got this error after ./b.sh

b.sh: line 3: cmake: command not found

sudo apt-get install cmake build-essential

[cyclonmaster]

Now I get:

-- Could NOT find OpenGL (missing: OPENGL_gl_LIBRARY)
-- Could NOT find SDL (missing: SDL_LIBRARY SDL_INCLUDE_DIR)
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:461 (message):
Could not find SDL. Failing.

Maybe something like this:

sudo apt-get install mesa-common-dev freeglut3-dev libsdl-*dev

Or you could try the Qt version, e.g. like this I guess:

I get SDL version work. Seem to be a bit slow atm.

Now I'm trying Qt version.

Installed http://developer.ubuntu.com/get-started/qt-creator/

cd Qt
qmake PPSSPPQt.pro && make
./PPSSPPQt

But still cannot compile.
