Emulation on Ubuntu

298 bytes removed, 07:34, 22 April 2017
Repositories List: Version updates. PlayDeb became outdated so it is removed for now. The latest Mednafen is available only in 17.04+ in official Ubuntu repo so PPAs are no longer listed in this page.
For this task I recommend you to install Synaptic. That program will be a lot of help. Once you have it installed you can choose to organize packages by source and see all the repos you have available. See what emulators each of the repos you added has and install the emulators you want.
===Repositories List===
The "Type" column describes how often the emulators are updated on these repositories. Testing repositories usually get updates quite often (some have daily updates) while Stable repositories usually get updates after a few months gap<!-- , and Abandoned repositories are, well, abandoned -->.

You can find more repositories by searching "emulatoryouwant launchpad ppa" without the quotes. Check that they have packages for your Ubuntu version (usually by its name, e.g. Trusty is 14.04, Vivid Xenial is 1516.04, Wily Yakkety is 1516.10, Xenial Zesty is 1617.04), as some PPAs can be abandoned.
