You can see that updating libc6 on your system did nothing. Debian is known for being a "stable" Linux distro, and by stable they usually mean old-as-dirt software (okay, maybe that was uncalled for, but what can I say, I'm not a fan of Debian :p). You can either manually update the software yourself (compile from source), try using the Debian testing or unstable repositories to update said software, or possibly see if you can compile Dolphin yourself with these instructions: https://code.google.com/p/dolphin-emu/wiki/Linux_Build
If you still run into trouble, you might as well try using the latest version of Ubuntu (since that's what the Dolphin buildbot uses for Linux builds, I assume) or Mint; either is certainly more user-friendly to newcomers. Once you get some more Linux skills though, consider the power of Slackware
Like I said I am a few days into using Linux for the first time and Debian seemed like the right pick. That said I have my reasons for not getting Ubuntu or Mint. I tried getting a later version of libc6 from experimental repo and....crashed, then refused to boot. Had to reinstall. Shit. I guess the compile from source thing will have to do!
What is Slackware?

But compiling from source is as easy on linux. You'll have to wait for 5 minutes, but I think that's worth :-)
It's the Ubuntu build from the official page, I was just hoping it worked anyway. Trail and Error tends to be like that
I'll try compiling.
