Config Question

[sheffieldlad]

Hi.
How do I get into the config of pcsx2?
I can't get it to run anything and there is no menu that I can see.

I have the bios files and a game ISO but nothing happens when I drag the ISO into the pcsx2 window. in the program log it says...


(Drag&Drop) Received filename: /home/sheffieldlad/Downloads/pcsx2-1.0.0/CAPCOM VS SNK2.iso

but then nothing happens.

Any help would be appreciated.

'pcsx 1.0.0 ubunto 12.04
I've added a screenie as an attachment.

I found the menu.....I must have had a blonde moment for a little while...
Everytime I get it to boot the ISO nothing happens. I get a white screen with an FPS count, that's all,

here is a cut/paste from the program log..

Could you run the game from the terminal and attach the log from there? Also, the CPU strength is very low for this emulator. Linux version still is pretty much SW mode only for now. My i3 2100 still doesn't even get full speed except for just FFX. Anyways...if this is a laptop, you are probably relying on the graphics from the CPU. And if that's the case, Intel doesn't yet have OpenGL > 3.3 support yet to properly render the graphics yet for GSdx.

Also, please attach lspci command from terminal.

Hi,

Thanks for the reply. I got it running tonight when I downloaded from the ppa.
I didn't know the command to install pcsx2 after I'd added the ppa and updated.....
Maybe it could be added to the webpage that offers the instructions on adding the ppa???

For anyone who is in the same boat I was in the command is:

sudo apt-get install pcsx2-unstable

It is very slow and to be honest, unplayable but I've given it a go and until I can upgrade my PC I'll have to leve it alone.
Excellent job, respect and kudos to the guy who wrote wrote pcsx2, many thanks for your hard work but I can't use it at the moment.

Thanks again for the reply and advice
