[Repair graphics:]

Decided to try the latest version of Puppy (Slacko_6.3.0, to date) and although a lot of the setup looks similar to Tahr_6.0.5, this is a completely different beast. There are major graphical differences that drastically improve this OS..but also cause a driver problem for the Dell Inspiron 1100. It's covered below under Repair graphics: 8) )
Click the 'Update database' tab
Click Update now
Press [Enter] at each prompt to complete
Click OK

Wasn't having much (hardly any-see Remmina below) luck installing programs from the Puppy Package Manager. There's Slickpet, which is like the Quickpet menu from Tahr_6.0.5 but has substantially less to choose from. Here's a link to an index of files for Tahr that will work with Slacko:

Skype (skype-4.3.0.37.sfs):
[spoiler:1a6brhkx]Download and click to install
Click Run when installation is complete
Follow the prompts to setup, then click Skype-Options and on the General tab tick "Start Skype minimised in the system tray"
Click Apply-Close
To run at startup:
Open File at the upper left corner of the desktop
Open Startup
Right click somewhere and choose New-Script
Name it skype and click Create
Right click on skype and select 'Open As Text'
paste in:

Code Select Expand

/usr/bin/skype(unless you installed it elsewhere) Now it will load at startup[/spoiler:1a6brhkx]
***********************************************************************
Dropbox:
[spoiler:1a6brhkx]Download and click mydbox-1.2_noarch.pet
After installing a box tells you it's in the Internet category of the Menu
Another box, "MyDbox user choice" asks to run as root or spot. I went with root.
Next box requests you to choose your architecture. 32 or 64 bit
MyDbox starts downloading
Enter login info when Dropbox Setup window appears

To start Dropbox on boot:
Right click the icon by the clock
Click Preferences and make sure there's a check by "Start Dropbox on system startup"
(It's checked by default)

If you're running low on room, right click the 'cylinder' icon by the clock and choose to expand personal space by however much. I went with the max of 4,096mb to test it out.
NOTE: The resizing process will take a while after rebooting (like 20 minutes 8)[/spoiler:1a6brhkx]

Installing Apps via Puppy Package Manager:
[spoiler:1a6brhkx]Open Puppy Package Manager by clicking Menu-Setup-Puppy Package Manager
Type in the name of any app to load packages for it[/spoiler:1a6brhkx]

Remmina:
[spoiler:1a6brhkx]Highly recommend doing the steps in 'Initial update after install:' above before attempting this. It's actually the only way I could get it to successfully install.

Open Menu-Setup-Puppy Package Manager
Type in remmina
remmina-1.0.0 appears from the [Slackware-14.1-Salix] repository (with 18 dependencies noted)
Click it to add it to the install list
Click 'Do it!'
Installation takes about 45 minutes to 1hr ;)[/spoiler:1a6brhkx]

[Dell Inspiron 1100]

I'm sure the methods for installation are the same or similar on any computer but noted the Dell Inspiron 1100 in the title as Puppy was the only OS I could get to actually install. Contrary to what I've read all over the internet, other flavors like Mint, Lubuntu and Xubuntu, to name a few, wouldn't even get past (or to) the Install screen. Not with a working display anyway.
This process was simple and straight forward enabling full use out of an ancient laptop I'd written off since 2007 as a paperweight. If you own an Inspiron 1100, you probably know that the video card or chipset is limited-along with the NOT vast amount of driver support but tahr-6.0.5_PAE installs running at the 1024x768 it's supposed to.
Resources: [ISO resource] [Index of Puppy] [Index of coolpup]

Download and burn tahr-6.0.5_PAE
[spoiler]or have a look at Puppy Linux Selection Guide for other versions.
Insert the live CD and boot from it.
There are two ways of installing Puppy. Frugal (minimal install) and Full:

Try at your own risk
[size=120]Frugal install:[/size]
Once it loads, click the install icon on the desktop in the middle of the top row.
Follow the prompts to select/create a location (I made and used a 29GB partiton -using GParted-much overkill on the size, on my part, btw) and install.
Remove the live CD when it automatically ejects after a few minutes of installation time.
Set up the grub as needed. (defaults worked for me so only clicked OK several times to complete the process)
Reboot the computer by clicking Menu-Exit-Reboot or right click anywhere on the desktop and click Exit-Reboot.
Click No when asked to save session of first shutdown. It's useless if you installed and you'll have to do it again later anyway.
The grub will default to Puppy Linux (if installed with another OS)

Reboot:
Click anywhere on the desktop and select Exit-Reboot-otherwise, click Menu-Exit-Reboot
If this is the first time you're shutting down, a slew of prompts will appear. Click each one accordingly as it will save time booting and shutting down in the future. For reference, here's what I selected:
Save
administrator
sda5 RECOMMENDED*
NORMAL (no encryp)
ext2 maximum storage space-OK
512MB
pupsave name: whatever
YES,SAVE

wait..

Creating the save file can take a few minutes but in the long run it's worth it-one time thing
During boot, a message will appear after "Updating" stating next boot will be faster!. This part takes at least a minute to complete...


[size=120]Full install:[/size]
This will install Puppy to an entire partition so ensure it doesn't contain any important files or another OS.

Insert the live CD and boot from it.
Once it loads, click the install icon on the desktop in the middle of the top row.
Follow the prompts to select/create a location-using GParted as needed.
Choose Full at the 'Puppy Universal Installer' window
Click OK at the 'Final Sanity Check' (lol)

After the files have copied (can take 5-7 minutes), remove the live CD.
Set up the grub as needed. (defaults worked for me so only clicked OK several times to complete the process)
Reboot the computer by clicking Menu-Exit-Reboot or right click anywhere on the desktop and click Exit-Reboot.
Click No when asked to save session of first shutdown.
The grub will default to Puppy Linux (if installed with another OS)[/spoiler]
***********************************************************************
Connect to the internet:
[spoiler]At the desktop, choose your time settings/location as needed.
The best method I've found for internet is to click the setup icon at the top of the desktop
Click Internet-Wired or wireless LAN-Network Wizard
(Click eth0 for a hard wired connection & follow the prompts-very easy)
Click wlan0 for wireless:
Click the Wireless button
Click Scan (in a few seconds all available networks will appear)
Tick the right/strongest/best connection if it wasn't by default-OK
Click its encryption level which will automatically fill the profile fields
Input Shared Key (password)
Click Save-Use This Profile
When the Profile Manager finishes connecting, click Test wlan0
If the 'Report on test' at the top was successful, click Auto DHCP
Browse the net to ensure it's working
If so, click Yes at the prompt to save this configuration
Click Done (this connection should auto load from now on when the ssid is in range)
If the tool worked and you want to use it from now on, click Set as default to exit setup.
Another window will appear confirming the default network cfg-click OK


OLD (for reference):
Click the Connect icon on the window that pops up.
Click "Wired or wireless LAN" icon.
If using a lan cable, enable it and proceed.
If using a wireless adapter (like the old Linksys WPC54G v2.0 Network Adapter I still have), click "Simple Network Setup"
Click the wireless button (wlan0).
Wait for the next dialog box to appear.
In my case, the wireless network available already has the radio button ticked.
Choose encryption method (from the router) if any. WPA covers WPA2 as well, whichever is being used.
Enter the key (or passphrase)
Click Connect
When the next dialog box appears asking if it works, open the Pale Moon Browser by clicking the green 'browse' icon on the desktop. Navigate around to make sure you can access the internet as it will say you're connected even if it's only to the router.
If it works properly, click 'Set as default' button-OK.
After booting up, just click the "Connect" icon on the desktop to re-connect.[/spoiler]

Right click the app and select 'Edit Item' to rename it or only remove the .desktop extension[/spoiler]
***********************************************************************
Remmina install:
[spoiler]Highly recommend doing the steps in 'Initial update after install:' above before attempting this. It's actually the only way I could get it to successfully install.

Open Menu-Setup-Puppy Package Manager
Type in remmina
8 packages should appear in the list
Click each one to add it to the install list
Click 'Do it!'
Installation takes about 7-8 minutes
Afterward, the "Package install/download report" window showed 4 fails:
libxcomp3_3.5.0-2
nxproxy_3.5.0-1
remmina-common_1.0.0 was already installed
remmina-plugin-nx_1.0.0
(Made no difference. Remmina installed and works fine)

To run:
Open Menu-Network-Remmina

Setup a connection:
Click New
Enter info similar as follows:
Name: any
Group: Home-any
Protocol: VNC-Virtual Network Computing
Server: 111.111.1.11:5911
Password: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Type in deluge
Several pkgs will appear (counted 8 total)
Only need deluge_1.3.6 (at the time of this writing)
Click the 'Do it!' button to install

NOTE: Add a desktop shortcut via the /usr/share/applications method

Change the default app to open .torrent files: REF
Navigate to: ~/.config/rox.sourceforge.net/MIME-types/[MIME-type]
Right click on application_x-bittorrent & click 'Open As Text'
Change it from:
[/spoiler]

Code Select Expand

#! /bin/sh
exec transmission-qt "$@"[spoiler]
to:
[/spoiler]

Code Select Expand

#! /bin/sh
exec deluge "$@"[spoiler]
Quicksave and exit

(Can also use the -Add an app to the Open With menu: info posted below to add a shortcut to the OpenWith folder so when you right click on a .torrent file Deluge will be available right away. Probably not overly necessary but leaving it here for reference.)

NOTE: There's no magnet file association in the Palemoon or Firefox Browser versions of Puppy, or even an entry for magnet in Preferences-Applications, -although you can still paste in the address manually.

Open Deluge via Menu-Internet-Deluge:
Open Edit-Preferences-Queue
Change 'Total active downloading' to 10
Open Edit-Preferences-Plugins
Tick 'AutoAdd'
Click Apply & OK
(Other default settings seem to more than suffice)


Note: I installed every package that appeared for a search on deluge but none made a difference associating it with magnet links. deluged_1.3.6 was a monster to install and I couldn't use it upon completion anyway so this is a note to avoid the time cost on that in any possible future attempts.[/spoiler]

[Try the following at your own risk.]

This is a wip that I've been working on in the last few days. Have a laptop with lower specs and found this OS to work well with it. Installed alongside Windows 7 32bit. I'll update it with more as I have time but if you have an older laptop that won't push today's OSs very well, this may be the perfect alternative to keep it in use.

Try the following at your own risk.
Recommend running from a live CD first to test compatibility with your computer, even though actually installing it after a successful run doesn't guarantee it will work. Discovered this using that method with a Dell Inspiron 1100. It worked great using the Live CD but after installing, the graphics driver was incompatible and Lubuntu had to be removed as it was unusable. Below is merely a ton of info I discovered after hours of research and compiled here to possibly assist anyone else looking for the same-but moreso, to refer to myself as a quick resource when wiping out and reinstalling this wonderful operating system

Download/burn Lubuntu:
[spoiler]15.10 (32 bit)-ISO
15.10 (32 bit)-torrent
15.10 (64 bit)-ISO
15.10 (64 bit)-torrent[/spoiler]

Initial update after install:
[spoiler]sudo apt-get update
Reboot machine when complete
Next, via Terminal (ctrl+Alt+T):
sudo apt-get install gnome-do gnome-do-plugins -y
sudo apt-get install gksu

Xfce Power Manager:

Tweaked slightly, I've found the following to be the best for myself:

Decrease the swap use (important!): REF
[spoiler]
Via Terminal (ctrl+alt+t) if you don't have them:
sudo apt-get install gksu gedit

Check current swappiness setting via Terminal:
cat /proc/sys/vm/swappiness
(he result will probably be 60)

Open the following text file via Terminal:
gksudo gedit /etc/sysctl.conf

Scroll to the bottom of the text file and add your swappiness parameter to override the default. Copy/paste the following lines:
# Decrease swap usage to a more reasonable level
vm.swappiness=10

(set at 20 or higher if using Dropbox or tray icon will not appear)
Set at 22 if using Dropbox and Skype or Skype icon will appear messed up)

Quicksave, exit and reboot

Check the new swappiness setting via Terminal:
cat /proc/sys/vm/swappiness

(now it should be 10 or whatever you entered above)[/spoiler]

Mount partition(s) at startup:
[spoiler]To find the UUID of each partition via Terminal type: REF
sudo blkid
Note the UUID of the partition you want to mount and leave this Terminal open for later
In a new Terminal, open fstab:
sudo gedit /etc/fstab
Paste in the UUID (w/out the quotation marks) on a new line at the bottom of fstab
example: UUID=01D198544C1A4580
Leave fstab open for later

Now, open any folder. In the left pane where it says "Places", click that word and change the view to "Directory Tree."
Scroll down to a folder named / (should be at the bottom of the list) and open it by double clicking on it. Now scroll down to media and double click it to drop down its contents
Double click your username to drop its contents
The partition/drive from the UUID above should be visible (as well as all partitions/drives that are named, ie; 'Local Disk C' from a Windows installation won't actually have a name so won't appear in this folder. It will appear in the Terminal window after using sudo blkid but will be nameless there too.) Double click the desired partition to view its contents.
Right click on any file or folder inside the partition/drive and select Properties
Highlight and copy the path next to location

Back in fstab, add a space after the UUID info pasted into it earlier & paste the path you just copied.
Example: UUID=01D198544C1A4580 /media/cylon17/Backups
You can now click Directory Tree in the open folder to switch it back to Places if desired

Back in the Terminal window with the UUID info, look for the TYPE of the partition/drive from earlier. Type the info on the line in fstab after a space from the mount point.
Example: UUID=01D198544C1A4580 /media/cylon17/Backups ntfs

To finish the line and make the partition/drive automount, add a space and defaults 0 1
Example: UUID=01D198544C1A4580 /media/cylon17/Backups ntfs defaults 0 1


Do the same for any other partitions or drives and reboot to test.[/spoiler]

or
Open home folder
ctrl+H
.dropbox-dist folder
dropbox-lnx.x86-3.18.1 folder (if using 32 bit ver)
Double click "dropbox" icon
Click Execute

Fix status icon and autostart: REF (This worked like a charm for me)
[/spoiler]

[spoiler]However, the only thing I have found to work for Lubuntu is this:

    dropbox stop (or ctrl+alt+del to open task mgr-then right click and kill dropbox process)
    dbus-launch ~/.dropbox-dist/dropboxd
    That will start dropbox with the system tray ("notification area") icon, instead of the nonfunctional "indicator area" icon. So, go into Dropbox settings via the icon that should now be working, and TURN OFF the check box to start dropbox automatically. Also, just to be sure, issue the following in terminal:
    dropbox autostart n
    gksudo pcmanfm
    in the elevated-permissions file manager window, go to folder /bin and create a file called "dropbox-workaround-autostart". In it put:

    #!/bin/bash

    dbus-launch ~/.dropbox-dist/dropboxd

    Right-click the file, and in permissions tab, make executable for Anyone.
    Go to Preferences>Default applications for LXSession>Autostart, and under the "manual" section input box, type the name of the file (dropbox-workaround-autostart) and hit add.

That's got it consistently working for me know. Hope that helps someone.[/spoiler]

[spoiler]


The following will launch Dropbox at startup but in Lubuntu the status icon is messed up so not recommended. Left it here for reference:
1.    Press the Lubuntu icon on the bottom left;
2.    Select "Preferences" > "Default applications for LXSession";
3.    In the opened window, select the option "Autostart";  (type /home/username/.dropbox-dist/dropbox-lnx.x86-3.18.1/dropbox & click Add)
4.    Now you can enable or disable the autostarted applications, check/uncheck one in the list or set manually on the field and pressing the "Add" button.

To make desktop shortcuts:
[spoiler](There are several ways, the following probably being the easiest but others are much more entertaining)

sudo pcmanfm /usr/share/applications
Right-click on the application you want to use and select copy
Click on your desktop and select paste

Example of creating a desktop trash bin to open with regular permissions:
Desktop shortcuts

Made a desktop shortcut using the trash can info in the link. Copied this:
[/spoiler]

Code Select Expand


[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=Trash
Comment=Open Trash folder in PCManFM
Icon=/home/username/.extra-icons/trashcan-128x128(c).png
Exec=/usr/bin/pcmanfm trash:///
Terminal=false
Type=Application
[spoiler]
Pasted it into a new text doc named Trash.desktop then created the folder ".extra-icons" in my Home directory by holding ctrl+H to make all folders visible. Went online and downloaded a pic of a trash can and resized it to 128x128 via gthumb, renamed it to "trashcan-128x128(c).png" & moved it into the .extra-icons directory.
Quick saved the text doc and after rebooting it appeared on the desktop with the name Trash. Double clicking it opens the trash folder exactly as the original desktop icon does.

To create a shortcut to a mounted drive (ie; Windows installation folder) with elevated permissions: REF

Exec=/usr/bin/nautilus --no-desktop /media/MyUserName/Win7/Users/MyOtherUserName/Desktop[spoiler]
and added a custom icon, linking to it as follows:

This opened the Desktop on the Windows install (with Admin privileges)

To create the same shortcut using the regular file opener (pcmanfm) where only regular permissions are needed, use the following and note the only changes to the above are "Nautilus" (3x) being replaced by "pcmanfm" :

I read somewhere else that stormworksinteractive.com was back online and they're near completion of a game called Airstrike for the JagCD. Sure hope this happens soon. Would LOVE a new title to play

Had seen this and thought about pouncing on it. Great starting price.
Another World

I uploaded images for Soul Star (corrupted version that needs a bypass cart) for a friend and decided to post them here in case anyone wants it. This is the version that's been floating around for years (and that I'd offered to burn for folks back in 2005) that I'm occasionally still receiving requests for. Anyway, the first link is a .cdi image that can be burned with the free version of DiscJuggler and following the info/settings here.
http://www.filedropper.com/soulstardemocdi

The 2nd version I made myself with ImgBurn and can be easily burned with it using the slowest possible speed.
http://www.filedropper.com/soulstardemobincue

A bypass cart is required and I haven't made it far past the computer at the end of level 1, however JagChris has a video of himself playing beyond so it's indeed possible.

[align=center:29ioes0n]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w4nEINvzxdI[/align:29ioes0n]

Hoping neo_rg from AA gets this finished someday and releases the full fixed version. Progress has been slow the past few years, publicly anyway, but there's always hope this will finally make it out to the world completed. :36:

Edit
The files are no longer at the links. Download the torrents below.

[jagdev_102.exe]

Was looking at the released source code here and wondering is there anyone who knows how to compile the 2 separate(d) source files into an .abs or rom file?
Says you need nmake.exe and it wasn't too hard to find but even with it it fails to compile.

The rom is already out there but I wanted to learn more about what it would take to make this happen since there's a lot of source available for other Jaguar games. I have the same setup used to compile Painter from source but the files are (obviously) different:

Ok, went to Belboz's site and downloaded/installed jagdev_102.exe to the default C:/jaguar.

Extracted paintersrc.zip to C:jaguarpaintsrc

Edited the autoexec.bat file on C: as follows (this is from notes I had lying around, no idea if it's even necessary but I'm using Windows 7 Ultimate 32bit, btw):
@echo off
set PATH=%PATH%;C:JAGUARBIN
set RDBRC=C:JAGUARBINRDB.RC
set DBPATH=C:JAGUARBIN
set ALNPATH=C:JAGUARBIN
set MACPATH=C:JAGUARINCLUDE
set GCC_EXEC_PREFIX=C:/JAGUAR/BIN
set TEMP=C:
doskey

Copied cmd.exe from C:Windowssystem32 to C:jaguarpaintsrc and opened it.

ran smac -fb main.s
After a few seconds it finished then i ran sln -e -a 10000 x x main.o

Thanks

[sudo add-apt-repository ppa:c.falco/mame]

I'm writing this out as a noob guide, hopefully so there's question as to exactly what needs to be done to get up and running. Especially for anyone new to Linux (such as myself)

Open Terminal (ctrl+alt+t) and type in:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:c.falco/mame
Press [Enter]

When complete, type in:
sudo apt-get update
Press [Enter]

When complete, type in:
sudo apt-get install mame
Press [Enter]

When complete, type in:
mame
Press [Enter]

(can press alt + Enter to exit full screen)
exit MAME by hitting [esc]

Back in the Terminal window type:
cd ~/.mame && mame -cc
Press [Enter]

To change any paths, in Terminal this would be the time to do it (not recommended):
gedit ~/.mame/mame.ini
Press [Enter]
(Paths can be changed to accommodate hard drive space but changes can also render MAME inoperable. Before doing anything, it's recommended to back up mame.ini to replace as needed)

Open a new Terminal and type:
cd ~/.mame
Press [Enter]
Next, type:
mkdir  ~/.mame/nvram memcard roms inp comments sta snap diff
Press [Enter]

To access the default folder to copy roms to, open a new Terminal and type:
sudo nautilus /usr/local/share/games/mame/roms
Press [Enter]-Type in your password if required and Press [Enter] again.

To add cheats:
Download here and unzip.
Move the cheat.7z file to Home/.mame
Ref
Navigate to /home/yourname/.mame and open mame.ini with gedit
Search for cheatpath (Line 17) and it'll look like:
cheatpath                 $HOME/mame/cheat;/usr/local/share/games/mame/cheat;/usr/share/games/mame/cheat
Change it to:
cheatpath                 $HOME/.mame/cheat
Search cheat (Line 161) and change its value from 0 to 1
Quick save and exit gedit
During game, press tab to see the new menu entry

To play, open Terminal and type:
mame gamename
Press [Enter]

For Sokoban L.E., extract the files then rezip only b96-07.ic9, b96-08.ic8, ic10 and a 0 bytes (user) created gal16v8-b86-04.bin and place in /usr/local/share/games/mame/roms. When loaded, an error will appear about missing CHD files, etc. Disregard by pressing Enter and play.

A good rule of thumb to prevent the Enter key from failing to function is to re-map it immediately after installation. Do this by running a rom, pressing tab and selecting Input (general)-User Inrface-UI Select and pressing Enter twice. Press Esc to exit MAME. Navigate to home/.mame/cfg and backup default.cfg elsewhere to restore if needed. Rebooting your system can also fix the problem.

If you want MAME to open windowed by default, navigate to /home/yourname/.mame/mame.ini and open with gedit. Under # OSD VIDEO OPTIONS-window, change the value from 0 to 1 (Line 205), quick save and close it.

Been playing this all morning. Never beat it back in the day and decided (for some odd reason) that today it was necessary. But it's a lot harder than I remember.. Just getting past the moving blocks at the end of level 2 was a nightmare.
I have Pugsy's cheats installed and hesitated using them early on but infinite lives became a must pretty quick.
Blows me away that that much skill or dexterity can be lost (I used to be good :113:

More screens:

[libsdl1.2-dev]

The edited version containing only the necessary info after a clean install of Ubuntu 14.04:

[size=140]Virtual Jaguar[/size]
Installing the necessary dependencies, compiling the source and running VJ 2.12

Via Terminal: Ref
sudo apt-get install build-essential checkinstall
sudo apt-get install cvs subversion git-core mercurial
sudo apt-get install qt4-default libqt4-dev qtchooser qt4-designer (QT4 Ref)
Install libsdl1.2-dev via The Ubuntu Software Center (Ref)

Download VJ source (scroll to Downloads) or Direct download of v2.12 and extract into /home directory.

Open virtualjaguar-virtualjaguar.pro and search (line 20) for:
LIBS      += -Lobj -Lsrc/m68000/obj -ljaguarcore -lz -lm68k
Change it to:
LIBS      += -Lobj -Lsrc/m68000/obj -ljaguarcore -lm68k -lz
Quick save and exit.

Compile it via Terminal:
cd virtualjaguar
make

When complete (can take a couple minutes)  navigate to virtualjaguar-src-file.cpp and open it with gedit (or whichever editor) and in my file it's line 255. It says:
   // We can assume we have JST_NONE at this point. :-P
   return false;

Change it to read:
   // We can assume we have JST_NONE at this point. :-P
   // CW - I'm going to assume this is a BJL file that loads/runs at 0x4000
   WriteLog("FILE: Setting up homebrew (BJL)... Run address: %08X, length: %08Xn", 0x4000, jaguarROMSize);
   memcpy(jagMemSpace + 0x4000, buffer, jaguarROMSize);
   delete[] buffer;
   jaguarRunAddress = 0x4000;
   return true;

Then quick save and exit file.cpp

~To run Virtual Jaguar~
Via Terminal:
cd virtualjaguar
./virtualjaguar

Open Jaguar-Configure-General tab
Change the EEPROMs path from:
/home/yourname/.local/share/data//virtualjaguar/eeproms/
to:
/home/yourname/.local/share/data/virtualjaguar/eeproms/

Change the Software path from:
/home/yourname/.local/share/data//virtualjaguar/software/
to:
/home/yourname/.local/share/data/virtualjaguar/software/

Copy ROMs to /home/yourname/.local/share/data/virtualjaguar/software/ (may have to create the directory)
Restart Virtual Jaguar
Play

For a desktop shortcut, navigate to /home/yourname/virtualjaguar/virtualjaguar (3.1 MB executable), right click on it and choose Make Link. Move Link to desktop.

Save States for VJ
Latest Windows versions

Edit- I've attached the modified files. virtualjaguar.pro goes in /home/virtualjaguar, replacing the original and file.cpp goes in /home/virtualjaguar/src, replacing the original.

Another way to run VJ with the Windows executable is to download the latest version here, place it in /home and via Terminal:
wine virtualjaguar.exe
When it loads, click Jaguar-Configure and paste in the paths from above-following same instructions. (may have to create the folder(s) )

Just saw this and at only $102.50 with 3 bids and 2 days to go, might be an opportunity for someone to get their hands on this highly sought after item.

I'm #160 on the current run so I'll wait to be contacted when mine's ready Otherwise, I'd be all over this badboy.

:easiest way to start with winuae is using "Quickstart" option:choose computer type (A500) insert a game-disc and select "Game Ports" to configure joystick-option for port 2 ( works in most games this way).

Using cheats with SSF I've done quite a bit with this info using CEP over the years. VERY handy app and means of cheating Download CEP

Step by step CEP instructions:
[spoiler]
NOTE: Master Codes are not supported and NOT needed.

1. Open a game and start playing, then pause
2. On SSF toolbar click About(A)-cep(C) buttons
3. Move 'cep base address' box to side of screen
4. From inside 'CEP' folder open 'APPLIST.TXT'
5. Compare 02 & 60 addresses and change APPLIST.TXT to match. (They will change w/in SSF each time the program is started)
6. When updated, quick save and close 'APPLIST.TXT'. Click OK and close 'cep base address'
7. From inside 'CEP' folder open CEP.EXE
8. Look up code(s) to be used
9. Under 'Process-Select Application' tab click 02 or 60 (if both types will be used, a 2nd instance of CEP will need to be opened for the other)
10. Without any more changes move to Cheat tab
10b. ex; for Invincible P1 the 'real' code is 3601E631 00FF.
    Since it's a "360" code (the 1st 3 digits), it must be changed to "300"1E631 00FF (minus the quote marks).
    "360" codes don't have the last four digits flip flopped so they're exactly as the original code.
    So basically:
    3601E631 00FF = 3001E631 00FF
11. Paste the code into the field, highlight them and click On
12. Play the game w/ cheats enabled

If you need other code(s) enabled beginning w/ 102 or 160, open a 2nd instance of CEP.EXE for these starting at step 7 above.
ex; for Max Weapon Level P1:
    Max Weapon Level P1
    1601CE02 0021 = 8001CE02 2100 (<--last four digits flip flopped as pairs)
    1601CE04 2121 = 8001CE04 2121 (<--last four digits flip flopped as pairs)

If codes begin with numbers either 302 or 360 they must be changed to 300 (with the rest of the code matching exactly)
    EXAMPLE:
    302?? xxyy <-------> 300?? xxyy
    360?? xxyy <-------> 300?? xxyy
If codes begin with numbers either 102 or 160 they must be changed to 800 (with the last four characters flip flopped as pairs)
    EXAMPLE:
    102?? xxyy <-------> 800?? yyxx
    160?? xxyy <-------> 800?? yyxx
   

Also I learned that Joker commands starting with
these first 3 digits D6057F52 FFEF, can be use on this
option, SSF(60 160-360)|SSF.EXE|059403C0|$00100000

Just change the first 3 digits of the Joker command from D6057F52 FFEF to D0057F52 FFEF

So we could even update the option to SSF(60 160-360-D60)| SSF.EXE|059403C0|$00100000

For anyone that doesn't know a Joker command makes a code activate when
a specific button is pressed.

For example D0057F52 FFEF is the Joker command for UP on the control pad...

And 8005C570 0400 is the code for infinite double jump...

So putting the code into CEP like this...


D0057F52 FFEF
8005C570 0400

Will make infinite double jump only activate when you press up.[/spoiler]
BSFree codes for CEP

[NOTES:]

As always, don't try any of the following. If you do, it's at your own risk :3:

NOTES:[spoiler]Using separate partitions for /Home, /boot & Swap.
Install partition (install size) for Ubuntu at 40,960MB (40GB.)
/Home partition at 40,960MB (40GB.)
Swap is (always supposed/recommended to be twice the size of the amount of RAM available) but I'm going with 8,192MB (8GB) to keep the system from crashing while multitasking or moving large volumes of files.
Boot partition is recommended at 512MB but mine is 1,024MB (1GB.)
Remaining disk space will be an Ext4 partition for/named Backups to easily use the Backup & Restore info below. (Must take ownership of the partition to use it, see below)
Encrypt home folder during installation as there's no easy way to do it once Ubuntu is installed.

The following partitions I originally made did not work for me in the long run.
NOTES:Using separate partitions for /Home, /boot & Swap. I'm testing /Home at 10GB and Swap is (always recommended to be) twice the size of the amount of RAM available. Since this laptop only has 2GB of RAM (with 1.76GB usable) my Swap partition is 4GB.
Using a 40GB partition (install size) for Ubuntu. The remaining disk space will be a Ext4 partition for/named Backups to easily use the Backup & Restore info below. (Must take ownership of the partition to use it, see below)
Encrypt home folder during installation as there's no easy way to do it once Ubuntu is installed.

Edit: The only drawback I've found with encrypting the /home folder is that Disk Usage Analyzer has a well documented bug in it that makes it think the encrypted files in encryptfs/Private are a separate set from the virtual mirrors in the /home folder. This causes DUA to incorrectly double the amount of space being used and can cause problems with Dropbox syncing (won't due to low disk space) and other programs like Grive (Google Drive). Using RedoBackup, you can restore backups to larger partitions but depending on the amount of files, the extra space can be consumed quickly as well. The earliest post I've found about the bug dates back to 2008 so it's doubtful there will be a fix soon. Not encrypting your /home folder solves this but leaves a stolen hard drive wide open for a semi talented hacker to steal personal files. Looks like a no-win.[/spoiler]

Setting up the hard drive during Ubuntu install: [spoiler]Download/burn Ubuntu:
14.04 LTS (32 bit)-ISO
14.04 LTS (32 bit)-torrent
14.04 LTS (64 bit)-ISO
14.04 LTS (64 bit)-torrent
Boot from disk
Install Ubuntu button
Connect to wifi/network (if needed)
Tick: Download updates while installing & Install this 3rd party software
Choose 'Something else' at Installation type screen

From a single hard drive (or after clicking 'New Partition Table' to make it a single hard drive):
Click 'free space' to highlight it
Click +
(This is the Root folder for Ubuntu which will be a 40GB installation size)
Size: 40960 mb
Type for the new partition: Primary
Location for the new partition: Beginning of this space
Tick: Format the partition
Use as: Ext4 journaling file system
Mount point: /
OK

Click 'free space' to highlight it
Click +
(This is for the Home folder which will be 10GB)
Size: 10240 mb
Type for the new partition: Logical
Location for the new partition: Beginning of this space
Tick: Format the partition
Use as: Ext4 journaling file system
Mount point: /home
OK

Click 'free space' to highlight it
Click +
(This is for linux-swap which will be 4GB, and double the RAM for this laptop, as recommended)
Size: 4096 mb
Type for the new partition: Logical
Location for the new partition: Beginning of this space
Use as: swap area
OK

Click 'free space' to highlight it
Click +
(This is for Boot which will be 1GB)
Size: 1024 mb
Type for the new partition: Logical
Location for the new partition: Beginning of this space
Tick: Format the partition
Use as: Ext4 journaling file system
Mount point: /boot
OK

Click 'free space' to highlight it
Click +
(This is for the remainder)
Size: ?? mb
Type for the new partition: Logical
Location for the new partition: Beginning of this space
Use as: Ext4 journaling file system
Mount point: leave blank
OK

Click Install Now
A warning pops up saying, No mount point is assigned for the ext4 file system in partition #......
If you do not go back to the partitioning menu and assign a mount point from there, this partition will not be used at all.
(This will leave it as a blank, separate, usable drive for Backup/Restore after taking ownership of it, see below.)

Click Continue twice
Choose City (nearest) and Language/keyboard layout
On the name/password input screen, tick 'Encrypt my home folder' after entering the other info.

When you reach the Desktop for the first time, after a minute or two the Record your encryption passphrase dialog box will appear. (from encrypting the /home folder)
Click Run this action now button-enter password-copy/paste passphrase into a text doc.[/spoiler]

Taking ownership of the remaining HD partition/space: Ref
[spoiler]Via Terminal: mount

In the long list, look for similar:
/dev/sdb8 on /media/bf9a2c45-491a-4778-9d76-47832fe38820 (mine was sdb8 as it was the last partition)
sudo chown -R yourname:yourname /media/yourname/bf9a2c45-491a-4778-9d76-47832fe38820
Now you can write to the drive without a Reboot, Logout, etc.

sudo apt-get remove --purge libreoffice*
sudo apt-get clean

If upgrading to a new version of Openoffice, follow this:
Remove all the packages from the installed version
Go to Synaptic or your package manager and mark all the openoffice.org packages installed to be removed (there is the string ubuntu in their version number). This is mandatory for your first upgrade of the distro delivered OOo version, no need to do that for the following upgrades.
Note: don't use the Ubuntu Software Center to remove OOo because it seems that some packages are left and conflict with the install with official debs.
For Ubuntu (flavors prior to Jaunty 9.04), the system will also remove the ubuntu-desktop package. No worry, this is a meta package that can be removed safely. But in case you want to upgrade your whole distro, you'll have to install back this package (and the OOo original version).
-Ref here:
https://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?t=68

1. Remove all the packages from (any) the installed version
2. Download the tarball (.tar.gz file) from the official web site: (included)
    http://www.openoffice.org/download/index.html
3. Move the tarball to your home directory (for use with the following commands)
tar -vxzf Apache_OpenOffice_4.1.2_Linux_x86_install-deb_en-US.tar.gz

Backup/Restore process:
[spoiler]The easiest method I've found so far for backing up and restoring partitions is Redo Backup. Easily download the iso and burn to disk. Boot with it and follow the simple prompts to back up all partitions. Restore using the same method to flawlessly return to your Ubuntu (or even Windows) OS. This will not work restoring to smaller partitions but the partitions themselves can be resized, backed up and restored again to smaller partitions. Using Symantec Ghost 11.5 a lot since its release in 2008, I personally prefer the safeguards of using a boot disk to accomplish the task. Yes, there's downtime while running the process but to me it's safer. The backup files had root privileges only but I took ownership of them using the method at the top of this thread and saved them in an additional location in case this hd ever tanks completely.
Here are easy to follow links on using Redo Backup:
Back Up Your Entire Hard Drive With Redo Backup & Recovery
Redo Backup and Recovery Tool to Backup and Restore Linux Systems
Admin Magaizine

There are many more ways to backup and restore your system, including a link filled list 4/5 of the way down this page. Of the many listed, so far I've tried Timeshift (which used up space quickly saving snapshots to the actual partitions I wanted to back up + no ownership rights to copy, move or delete these files) and Grsync. Grsync has a nice GUI but it took quite a while for it to back up my /home folder to another partition. I'd ticked to have a progress bar display during the process but it was very inaccurate so became useless relatively quickly. The backup folder had root rights only and I haven't restored from it yet to test.[/spoiler]

Virtual Jaguar
[spoiler]Installing the necessary dependencies, compiling the source and running VJ 2.12

Via Terminal: Ref
sudo apt-get install build-essential checkinstall
sudo apt-get install cvs subversion git-core mercurial
sudo apt-get install qt4-default libqt4-dev qtchooser qt4-designer (QT4 Ref)
Install libsdl1.2-dev via The Ubuntu Software Center (Ref)

Download VJ source (scroll to Downloads) or Direct download of v2.12 and extract into /home directory.

Open virtualjaguar-virtualjaguar.pro and search (line 20) for:
LIBS      += -Lobj -Lsrc/m68000/obj -ljaguarcore -lz -lm68k
Change it to:
LIBS      += -Lobj -Lsrc/m68000/obj -ljaguarcore -lm68k -lz
Quick save and exit.

Compile it via Terminal:
cd virtualjaguar
make

When complete (can take a couple minutes)  navigate to virtualjaguar-src-file.cpp and open it with gedit (or whichever editor) and in my file it's line 255. It says:
    // We can assume we have JST_NONE at this point. :-P
    return false;

Change it to read:
    // We can assume we have JST_NONE at this point. :-P
    // CW - I'm going to assume this is a BJL file that loads/runs at 0x4000
    WriteLog("FILE: Setting up homebrew (BJL)... Run address: %08X, length: %08X\n", 0x4000, jaguarROMSize);
    memcpy(jagMemSpace + 0x4000, buffer, jaguarROMSize);
    delete[] buffer;
    jaguarRunAddress = 0x4000;
    return true;

Then quick save and exit file.cpp

~To run Virtual Jaguar~
Via Terminal:
cd virtualjaguar
./virtualjaguar

Open Jaguar-Configure-General tab
Change the EEPROMs path from:
/home/yourname/.local/share/data//virtualjaguar/eeproms/
to:
/home/yourname/.local/share/data/virtualjaguar/eeproms/

Change the Software path from:
/home/yourname/.local/share/data//virtualjaguar/software/
to:
/home/yourname/.local/share/data/virtualjaguar/software/

Copy ROMs to /home/yourname/.local/share/data/virtualjaguar/software/ (may have to create the directory)
Restart Virtual Jaguar
Play

For a desktop shortcut, navigate to /home/yourname/virtualjaguar/virtualjaguar (3.1 MB executable), right click on it and choose Make Link. Move Link to desktop.

Save States for VJ

Another way to run VJ with the Windows executable is to download the latest version here, place it in /home and via Terminal:
wine virtualjaguar.exe
When it loads, click Jaguar-Configure and paste in the paths from above-following same instructions. (may have to create the folder(s) )[/spoiler]

Been searching for this for ages. Gonna post it here to save the trouble when I break out my 2mb Alpine to compile some source

cd jaguardemos [Enter]
then,
rdbjag filename.rom [Enter]

 You will need to hold the A button on the jag controller when booting the jag. Basically what that does is force the Alpine to free up the first $2000 bytes of the cart space (normally the Alpine stub uses this).

Then you have to load the rom into memory starting at 800000. So you basically hold the A, boot the jag. Go to your demos directory. run rdbjag. Then when inside rdbjag do a "read jag.rom 800000". After it loads do your normal "g 802000"

When you call rdbjag from the command line and specify a rom file it assumes you want it to go to 802000. So that is why you have to do a sort of workaround.

Do the following from the dos prompt.
cd jagbin
Then do this.
rdbjag filename.rom
Just make filename.rom one of your roms you want to test on the alpine.
Type the above two lines exactly as written from a DOS window, not from within rdbjag.
Now if you get an unknown command or filename on the second one try this line instead.
jaguarbinrdbjag filename.rom
Make sure your Jags monitor/tv is on. When the second line executes you should see the Jaguar display (the green stub screen) change.
If everything goes well you should eventually jump into rdbjag and be able to execute the rom you just downloaded.
Type the following in rdbjag if everything went ok.
g 802000
