Snes9x for GTK/X11 README 
-------------------------

  The following contains installation instructions, known issues, and info on
  features currently missing from the GTK port of Snes9x.


Requirements / Build Notes:
---------------------------

  The GTK port of Snes9x is a separate codebase from the unix port, and uses a
  variety of multiplatform libraries for compatibility. The following
  are the required libraries for this port:

    Library                Required Version
    ------------------------------------
    GTK+                   >= 2.10 and dependencies
    libxml2                >= 2.0
    One or more of portaudio, PulseAudio, SDL, ALSA, or OSS

  And for joystick support:

    Library             Required Version
    ------------------------------------    
    SDL                 >= 1.2.12

  Building requires you run the configure script with the parameter
    --with-gtk
  and for OpenGL support
    --with-gtk --with-opengl

  An appropriate configure command as an example would be:
    $ ./configure --prefix=/usr --with-gtk --with-opengl

  Next, issue the "make" command:
    $ make

  An standalone executable named "snes9x-gtk" will be created. This may be
  run in place. To install the program and errata, use 
    # make install
  as a privileged user.


Joystick Support:
-----------------

  Snes9x will autodetect your joystick when run. If you've used any
  calibration programs beforehand, you may need to reboot your operating
  system to undo the damage they've done.
