Might work on Fedora?

I just finished installing Fedora 8 x86_64 with a max install. I'm updating devs and reps right now...then an NTFS support...MP3 plugin... I should try it in an hour or a day... depending on what I plan to do today. I may get a higher FPS because I don't have Windows! (I dual-boot though)

I think you need Windows to run Dolphin unless you mean running it in Wine.
If you can get it running in Wine, I'd imagine the end result wouldn't be too good and overall more slow, bugs and glitches than natively running it in Windows.
Let us know how it works.

Hmm... for now it's not too good. It says it need two fonts. I can't modify any path for those fonts. I would have to modify the source but at least, it ways "booting" but without image. The other problem is about plugins. Not one of the three are detected. I might have to check it out too. I didn't install any nVidia drivers right now. So for now, it looks impossible but for now, i'll just try things. Yes, I use wine to emulate it and you would be amazed about my FPS(if I get it done). Mabye not.. mabye I'll get a decent one... or a better one. Counter-Strike 1.6 is fully playable on a 500 Mhz with 256 megs of RAM. I never had that FPS on windows.
EDIT:
If I'm a lucky guy, I may be able to download source files when they'll be released!

I may wait for the version 1 release...
Well looks like I can go in-game but it freezes before menu:

I've recently fixed most of Dolphin to compile under Linux. Haven't ported the plugins yet though so it doesn't do much
As usual I give no release dates. I really don't have much time or energy to work on Dolphin these days... The current goal, which we are slooowly moving towards, is to get it back to a releasable state on Win and Lin, and probably open source it at that point. I want the code to be in a good state before doing that though, to reduce the resulting chaos

No one can seem to finish a GC emulator. After they put years and years of hard work and just start to see promise of games working they just give up and walk away. It's a shame.
Maybe we will have better luck with the gekko team.

Tsts... You totaly wrote shit! They never promised to create a ultimate emulator which works fullspeed with any game :angry: This is a project made by few people who already work hard on this! How can you say "its a shame"? They made the current BEST emulator for the NGC and you just insult around and disgust?!?
Do you ever try to code a emulator? Do you even put anything in the emulation communtity? Which right allows you to blame the reputation of dolphin?!?
Did you know that the Dolphin "team" also works togheter with the gekko "team"? Sorry to say but the previous sentence made by yours totaly shows how incompetent you are with Gamecube emulation!
Its easy to blame others but first look at yourself amigo!

Lighting is working on gekko, alone.
It is a shame that dolphin is dying. I don't even think you have the capacity to understand what I'm saying coming from the country you're from, you don't speak correctly and don't understand correctly.

Woah, native Linux support and possibly going open source. It'll be great if you find the time to do it. I suggest you to choose a license that is compatible with the current open source Gamecube projects.

You're a moron, dude. Lighting is working alone on gekko. I know this from the Nsider section I am a part of. You're their too and should know this. I don't care what anything says, we all know lighting is the only one putting in any work on gekko at this time, shizzy is missing in action and is actually slowing down the progress of gekko by not doing any work on it. This is not a put-down on shizzy, it's just true.
Lightning is doing all he can to get this emulator right for us and he is the only one doing work on it right now, he needs that credit cause it is all him right now.
What do you think ector giving out the source code means? He is done working on it and is allowing other guys to add to his work. He just said he does not have time to work on it anymore and is getting the code right for others to take over on.

Pfff i dont care what you say tard -.-
Even if Lighting currently works alone on this moment, does not mean that he is the only one! I am much longer Nsider member then you and i know what im talking about. Shizz actually has hell more stuff to do in his real life and he dont has that much spare time as you have -.-
Ector wouldnt release the source of dolphin only because hes busy!! He always been busy in the past but he still did something on this emulator!
And stop acting like this "is a challenge between us or between dolphin and gekko"

He's not working alone at this moment, he's been working alone for 6 months now. He will maybe even have to write his own video plugin due to shizzy's plugin not being good enough and no work is being done on it to keep up with the core.
It is true this is, or was shizzy's project, but as of now lighting is the only one keeping it alive. Shizzy has some other things in life he is doing and that's fine, but he is not doing anything with this project and left lighting alone to either do it all himself or abandon it too. He chose to continue on alone.
You sound like the biggest idiot going telling me you know all about this and you're right and I'm wrong, when you're so far off base it's not funny.

Well whatever the truth may be, it's important that this conversation degrade into an argument with plenty of personal attacks!

On topic, I'm stoked that a Linux version is one of the Dolphin team's eventual goals! It's quite a bit easier to get your hands on 64-bit Linux than 64-bit Windows.

hi starscream, thanks for your support
Emulators of systems as advanced as the Gamecube are REALLY complicated beasts. If I were a god, I would have released a fully playable dolphin ages ago. I'm not, none in the team are, we're just regular working dudes. We also usually try to have some sort of life, so we don't have many hours left in the week for Dolphin. Plus, it's inevitable that enthusiasm rises and falls, sometimes we don't work on it for many months. We do it just for fun, and as far as I can tell you're not paying us for the trouble so you can't really demand progress.
Dolphin is not dead. There will be another version.
