Getting it to work
#1
Hello, first post. I recently managed to get PCSX to run on my macbook, and am now curious as to whether I can manage to get PCSX2 running. So far I can't.

I followed the guide here and I get the little blue screen, but from there I try to run the BIOS and in X11 it says:


Offset 0xea000000 invalid. Legit SIGSEGV. Aborting.
Offset 0xea000000 invalid. Legit SIGSEGV. Aborting.
pcsx2.sh: line 2: 10653 Bus error ./pcsx2

On a sidenote, I've read things about moving the BIOS to a subfolder of the app, but in my Finder pcsx2 has no subfolders to put anything in to. Maybe I'm being very dense. In any case, I went to the Config in PCSX2 and set the BIOS folder as the one on my desktop where I've got the BIOS.

I looked around but couldn't find anyone with the same error message so I thought I'd try my luck on the forum. Thanks for any help you can offer. Have a nice evening!

post your entire bash, that doesnt tell me much other than im pretty sure 0xea000000 means it doesnt have or can't find the bios.

I think this could be a problem similar to the one mucho chris is having. Here's the terminal message I keep getting…
