Ok so I am a total retard I had the emulator working a few hours ago I am running version 3.0 I start up the emulator choose an iso then it says clearing cache and closes can someone help me to get it running again?

[HomelandReloaded]

Did you change any settings? Are you running the same iso as a few hours ago?

[pragmatist]

Yes I am running the same 3 iso images, I actually had a really hard time getting it to run the first time, in fact I got it to work on accident, I played for awhile then I did go threw the settings and dink around but I changed them all back.

Oh and I am running Ubuntu Btw, and the linux version on Dolphin.

Ok, I have been working on this for a wile now, unfortunately to no avail. This is what relevant documentation of what I believe the problem to be, I would really appreciate any guidance toward solving the issue, Thank you.

These are some errors I found wile trying to build. I'm not really sure what's going on yet, I think it might have something to do with trying to build it over and over, sadly it's the only thing I could thing to do at the time.

Could NOT find SFML (missing: SFML_INCLUDE_DIR)
Using static SFML 1.5 from Externals
Using static SOIL from Externals
-- Found ZLIB: /usr/include
-- Install configuration: "Release"
CMake Error at cmake_install.cmake:36 (FILE):
file cannot create directory: /usr/local/share/dolphin-emu/user. Maybe
need administrative privileges.
-- Could NOT find OpenAL (missing: OPENAL_LIBRARY OPENAL_INCLUDE_DIR)
OpenAL NOT found, disabling OpenAL sound backend

These are the errors I am getting whilst the emulator is crashing upon loading the iso. I would like to note that I had this very image functioning a few hours ago....

Just btw, are you sure you want to run Dolphin with open source graphics drivers? Performance likely will be abysmal with those...

Anyway, try deleting your ~/.dolphin-emu folder (or renaming it) to test with a clean config. First, fix your build tree though - you apparently screwed up your permissions. Did you check out the source as root? Try checking it out as a normal user, you only should use root privileges for the "make install" step.

I download the regular driver but it screwed everything up, I am still to new to understand "being root" and all that stuff I just redownloaded 10.10 and I am going to try again. I am sure I will post again for more help.
