The Atari++ Emulator is a Unix based emulator of the Atari eight bit
|
||
|
|
computers, namely the Atari 400 and 800, the Atari 600XL, 800XL and 130XE,
|
||
|
|
and the Atari 5200 game console. The emulator is auto-configurable and
|
||
|
|
will compile on a variety of systems (Linux, Solaris, Irix), and supports
|
||
|
|
many emulation features.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Atari++ includes OS++, an open source replacement Atari 8-bit operating
|
||
|
|
system, so it's able to run many games and applications without the
|
||
|
|
Atari ROM images. However, for maximum compatibility, you probably will
|
||
|
|
want the original ROMs. To get them, install the atari800_roms package,
|
||
|
|
then use the atari++ GUI to set the ROM file paths to the images in
|
||
|
|
/usr/share/atari800/roms/. There is no need to install the atari800_os++
|
||
|
|
package for use with atari++ (OS++ is built into the emulator).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Notes:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Atari++, by default, is built with a fancy set of CFLAGS that the
|
||
|
|
author includes in his makefile. If you're picky about such things, or if
|
||
|
|
you run into crashes or compile errors, try setting FORCE_SLACK_CFLAGS=yes
|
||
|
|
in the environment before running atari++.SlackBuild
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
2. The Atari++ author doesn't keep old versions available on the
|
||
|
|
site. This script was written for Atari++ version 1.57. By the time you
|
||
|
|
read this, there may be a new release. If you are unable to find the 1.57
|
||
|
|
source, you can either download the latest version and run the script as
|
||
|
|
'VERSION=<whatever> ./atari++.SlackBuild', or else search for the 1.57
|
||
|
|
source somewhere other than the author's homepage.
