If I go to the setup of mythgame it gives me a path for stella and atari roms, but if I go to the specified path using the command prompt I cannot find stella, which leads me to believe that it is not installed with KNOPPMYTH, does anybody know the path where it is located or if it is not intalled, then what do I need to do to get it up and running?

Thanks in advance.

CAN SOMEBODY ANSWER ME, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD!!!!!

PLEEEEEEAAAAASEEEEEE??????

Hi, I wish it was that easy, It probaly is for you guys but i'm a newbie, STELLA does not come with my knoppmyth version, the path were mythgame is indicating stella is, is wrong. When I go there the stella binary is not there, is not under...

/usr/local/bin/

or

/usr/local/

And I do not know how to install it from the web because I am a newbie, can somebody please tell me how to do it? maybe with a w-get command line or something?

Thanks in advance

If you weren't posting message after message and getting an attitude people might be more willing to help you.
I would give you an wget command, but all you have to do is do a google search for stella atari and it'll be first in the page. wget the link to the source. If you get stuck installing it and post nicely then you may get some help there too.

Hola, el gordo...

I do not think that anybody that reads my post would thing that i'm being rude or disrespectful to anybody in this forum, the reason why I post a messages every day is because like that I am maintaining my message at the top of the list so that everybody sees it and does not go out of the list unanswered and forgotten like many other messages in this and other forums, you are totally wrong if you thing that i'm being serious when I say "CAN SOMEBODY HELP ME, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD!!!!" I don't think how anybody could think that i'm being serious. and even if I were, what is wrong with saying that??? There are many people that have helped me in this forum and I am ethernally grateful to them, I really am, since they are helping a total stranger. If you do not want to help me that is perfectly fine.

Actually I think a lot of people would be turned off by your posts. Capitals is *bad* as it comes across like shouting. And if you aren't serious about what you write, use a smiley because the humour is often lost when just reading the bald text. Just posting 'bump' will achieve what you want.

You can get a stella .deb file to install on KM here:

Hi La Tengo-

I do not recommend Stella. I was never able to get it to work.

I recommend Z26. As far as I know, there is no deb, but you can D/L it directly here:
http://www.whimsey.com/z26/z26v213.tar.gz

From your command line go into a temp dir (I use /tmp):




I do not remember if I had to alien it or not (convert it to .DEB). If so, then just:



and it will convert it to a Debian (deb) file. Then you can:

to install it.

However, this might not work if the files are not "Debian Friendly" in the first place.
Then, you would want to:



And then cd into the directory to read the README.TXT file to install.

Hope this helps.
-Mike

I use stella on my mythbox and it works. I can't control the paddle games, but then I haven't played around with it enough to really check into it. Probably just a confuration somewhere.

sixosix, I did everything you told me I've spent days on this and I really do not want to spend anymore days on anything else, this is the last thing that I want my MYTHTV to do so far I've been able to get and fine tune everything else. I'm just frustrated, it seems like everythime I have to do something on this thing is like passing space quest without the walkthough.

1) I did the wget and I got the file from the web, the alien command did not work, debian did not recognized the command, like if it does not exist

2) I read the RADME.TXT file and it did not tell me much, this is basically what it says...



ok so which one is the binary file? am I supposed to put in the bin directory so that it will execute???

Try this. Get the stella-1.3-linux-x86.tar.gz file from my ftp server (elgordo mirror). (Or wget it form the stella site)

get it to your mythbox, put it at /home/mythtv for now.
from the /home/mythtv directory type:
tar zxvf stella-1.3-linux-x86.tar.gz and it will unzip.
cd stella
copy one of your game .bin files here.
now to test it type:
./stella.x11 yourgamename.bin
it should now work.

If it does then you need to as root
cp stella.x11 /usr/local/bin
you can also rename it:
mv /usr/local/bin/stella.x11 /usr/local/bin/stella
then as regular mythtv user and from the /home/mythtv directory
mkdir /home/mythtv/.stella
now as regular mythtv cp the stella.pro file to /home/mythtv/.stella
now just type stella /pathto/yourgamename.bin
now it should work.

Hi, first of all thank you very much for your help, unfortunately it didn't work...

the file stella-x11 does not exist inside the stella directory, there is one in there named stella.x11 though but I tired using boths names and it did not work. when I type:

./stella-x11 xxx.bin

the following message comes out...

No such file or directory.

I did everything you told me, I downloaded the exact version that you told me and uncompressed it under /home/mythtv and then went into the /stella directory and ran the command that you told me and nothing. Any more ideas??? Anybody???

I smell a really bad attitude...anyone else?

Yeah, it should be ./stella.x11 filename.bin That should work. Remember that linux is case sensitive, so make sure that the filename and everything else is the right case. also try changing to root and then do chmod a+rwx stella.x11.
