Can't install ZSNES 1.42

I've been trying to install ZSNES 1.42 under SuSE 10, and after downloading various dependencies (SDL, NASM, ZLib...) I still can't get it to install. Here is the output:

The binary will be installed in /usr/local/bin

Configure complete, now type 'make' and pray.

well it sounds like the compiler is attempting to compile sound (dsp1emu.c) and is getting caught up in the gl.h file -- apparently having problems with OpenGL. I'd check to make sure that GL is installed and working properly (can you run 'glxgears' ?)

Also, you can attempt to use snes9x instead -- it actually comes precomiled (which may or may not be a good thing)

OpenGL you say? I've been having some problems installing my video card (ATI Radeon 9250). Could that be part of the issue? I ran 'glxgears' and averaged 144 FPS.

ille.pugil42 · 01-11-2006, 09:32 PM

okay, so the FPS in glxgears is not necessarily a benchmark, but can show if acceleration is working or not... Check out this webpage for some examples:

and the only card that was close to yours was a GeForce2 MX -- much older hardware. So I'd imagine that GL isn't working all the way, or any at all.

Also, on my older test system (Cel 466mhz, 256MB RAM, ATI Rage video) without GL accelaration (in fact I get GL errors even when running glxgears) - I can average 90+ fps
