I have the problem that you can see in the picture. I cannot select GS. The guide on github helped me to install Pcsx2.
- Which guide on github did you use? link please.
- Why did you install PCSX2 in portable mode?
- Where you able to start it earlier?

For Ubuntu, the easiest way to get the most recent version, is adding this PPA and install from there (Purge your installation and all config files before!)

I followed the instructions you can see in the picture. I was wrong?
I've always used this emulator on Windows, it's my first time trying to download it on Ubuntu.
Well, why do you want to compile it yourself? Would be much easier for you to just use the PPA mentioned in my last post, since you're on Ubuntu.

Simply run these commands: (Remove your PCSX2 installation data before!)

Code:
sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:pcsx2-team/pcsx2-daily
sudo apt update
sudo apt install pcsx2-unstable

Ok, thanks. How should i delete the installation data?
Delete the folder $HOME/pcsx2 (As your 1st screenshot suggests).
Additional, delete $HOME/.config/PCSX2, if it exists (This is the PCSX2-configuration)
