Most ST software won't work without hatari_tos_roms. -Before you can actually run the emulator, you also need a TOS image -file. TOS is the built-in operating system of the Atari 16/32 bit -computers. Since it is not possible to ship one of these image files -with Hatari, you either have to create your own image from your Atari -or you have to use EmuTOS, a free TOS replacement. - -It's also possible to download the ROM images from the net. See -the package hatari_tos_roms. If you're going to install the ROMs, -it's easiest to install hatari first, then hatari_tos_roms (otherwise, -you'll have to manually symlink /usr/share/hatari/tos.img to whichever -ROM you want to use). - -EmuTOS is included in this package, so you can run at least some ST -applications without installing the real ROMs, but not many programs -work with EmuTOS (especially not games). +Optional dependency: portaudio. Only used for emulated Falcon microphone +support. Autotetected by the SlackBuild. |
