Does Dolphin run well on linux? (Ubuntu)

[KHRZ]

Hm I downloaded Dolphin 2745-fastlog linux 64 bit, I've booted in ubuntu and I'm in the Dolphin folder, after extracting. But when I click the Dolphinprogram icon nothing happen, even though it does recognize it as an executable file. If there's any files I need I at least expext it to try an run, and get an error message...
Halp...

you need to run at terminal. change directory to where you stored it. run './Dolphin'

There are a few youtube vids of games running fine thru wine. My laptop has kubuntu 8.10 with wine when i get it back tuesday (screen was cracked) ill test it myself.

i doubt if d3dx9_40.dll and xinput1_3.dll will actually run on wine.

Hm I have not much clue what you're talking about, guess I'll need some time to learn this. I just booted it from CD and is now actually installing, I'll probably figure stuff out in a couple of days. A little confusing with all the hidden windows files being visible everywhere, must be carefull not to screw up anything

o yeah they do
you have to put them inside the dolphin directory as suggested by this page
http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=13374

actually if you follow the advice from this page:
http://wiki.winehq.org/UsefulRegistryKeys
and you change the renderer to opengl you can get even the directx (in the old releases at least i tried and worked) plugin to work
however, as i mentioned later, the wiimote does not work and wiimote mulation via mouse is somewhat funny

Uhm I'm confused, isn't there already a tar/deb package or something for ubuntu? Why would you run in wine in the first place? I have never tried dolphin in linux though, but project64 and stuff like that run great

What wine version are you using? mine always says error at line 45 when trying to run a game through the wine version of dolphin.

Error at line 45 is likely a driver issue with incompatible shaders. Try clearing your shadercache.
