TuxNES is an emulator for the 8-bit Nintendo Entertainment System. It is
|
|
based on Nestra, a great public-domain NES emulator by Quor. TuxNES adds many
|
|
features not found in Nestra, and uses a more collaborative development model.
|
|
Enhancements to Nestra often find their way into TuxNES. Enhancements to
|
|
TuxNES don't generally find their way into Nestra due to licensing
|
|
restrictions (since pieces of TuxNES are generally copyrighted by their
|
|
authors, and covered by the GNU General Public License), although similar
|
|
changes by the same authors sometimes find their way back into Nestra.
|
|
|
|
TuxNES requires an x86-family processor.
|
|
|
|
If you would also like to install GTuxNES (a graphical launcher for TuxNES),
|
|
download its source tarball and place it in the same directory as the
|
|
SlackBuild. The GTuxNES homepage is http://www.scottweber.com/projects/gtuxnes/
|
|
|
|
The GTuxNES site appears to be down, but the source is mirrored here:
