+z26v3 (an Atari 2600 emulator)
+
+Z26 is one of the best emulators for the Atari 2600. The author reports
+that the graphics part of the emulator is nearing perfection to a point
+that there's little more to fix.
+
+This is z26 version 3.x, which may have some issues running on Linux
+(depending on your hardware & config), and the authors aren't interested
+in fixing them. If you have problems you can't solve, try the older 2.13
+release, by installing games/z26 (which won't conflict with this build;
+you can have both installed).
+
+Specific Linux issues in this version:
+
+- The config file (z26.gui) is always read & written in the directory
+  where the ROM image is located. If the file doesn't exist and z26 can't
+  write to the directory, it refuses to start. This means no root-owned,
+  system-wide /usr/share/games/roms/2600 directory (even if users can
+  write there, they'll overwrite each others' config files).
+
+- The video timing relies on OpenGL VSync. If your card/driver combo is
+  incapable of this, the games will run insanely fast. Even with VSync
+  support, the games run at whatever your monitor refresh rate is set to
+  (for LCD panels this is usually 60Hz, which is correct for NTSC games).
