I am using Ubuntu 9.10

I originally tried version 0.9.7-r3881 and this is the error on the command line:

_ZN12wxSizerFlags24ReserveSpaceEvenIfHiddenEv, version WXU_2.8.8 not defined in file libwx_gtk2u_core-2.8.so.0 with link time reference

and the program doesn't even start, no menus come up or anything

Afterward I decided to download a deb of PCSX2, but the only one I could find was 0.9.4-1i386

I got the menu to come up but every time I try to run a cd or use the execute command (whether there is a cd, dvd, or nothing in the drive) I get a segmentation fault error

This is the command line:

** (<unknown>:31624): WARNING **: Couldn't find pixmap file: pcsxAbout.bmp

Easy one, you does not have the good version of wxwidgets, use 2.8.10 (or recompile from svn)

By the way, there are more recent package here:
https://launchpad.net/~gregory-hainaut/+...ficial.ppa

The stable version is latest beta. The others one, a recent snapshot of svn (no support is provided for this one).

Enjoy.

I got version 0.9.7 to start up, but it does not actually run, I get an error every time that I try to start a game.

This is the gsLog:

Which is the same error as 0.9.4 so I think that it is the GS plugin

Also I cannot download the package from synaptic I get the following error

GPG error: http://dl.google.com stable Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY A040830F7FAC5991Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/gregory-hainaut...ackages.gz 404 Not Found

Where can I get a new version of the GS plugin?

it seems like a old videocard. Try my last build from http://sanechka.spb.ru/svnroot/ruslan/compilled/

Ah sorry, the ppa is only for ubuntu 10.04 and 10.10.

I tried putting the hard drive into a more powerful computer and the emulator starts, but I get less than .1 fps!

This is what the computer has:
Dual core Xeon CPU 2 GHZ (overclocked to something else though)
3GB of RAM
Nvida QuadroFX560 (128MB 128-bit GDDR3 400 MHz)

So is this computer good enough to run PCSX2, or is something wrong with the way I installed it?

Actually the cpu is a little weak.

Did the gpu is a geforce 5 ? In this case it is probably too old.

actually it turns out that I needed a special driver to use it so after installing the driver it worked fine usually around 30-60 fps, but I can't load DVDs or switch plugins, every time I click on the "configue" menu the program quits

Also for some reason it thinks that that it's December 2110

Ok good.

The crash seems a segmentation fault. Could you try to get a backtrace from a debugger like gdb.
-> gdb ./pcsx2
-> run
----> hit configure, change plugins
----> gdb command go back
(to generate the backtrace use the next command)
-> bt full
