Build VICE with SDL2 Interface

Creating a self-booting x64/x128 VirtualBox Implementation

Building SDL2 VICE from current code base from Sourceforge

Build SDL2 VICE without X on an x86/amd64

SDL2 VICE Cross Compiling on Linux for Windows

Bold textas per https://github.com/midwan/amiberry/wiki/Compile-SDL2-from-source SDL2 must be compiled from source
This documentation is outdated. Have to work on a new one pulling from Amiberry docs.
https://github.com/midwan/amiberry/wiki/Using-Amiberry-WHDBooter-with-RetroPie is the master document

Install prerequisites

sudo apt install xa65 bison flex libpcap* libxaw7-dev libxaw3dxft8-dev libsdl2-dev 

or if you did this without rebuilding:

apt install bison flex libpcap* -y

Retrieve vice-3.2.tar.gz

wget 192.168.0.15/~jay/vice/vice-3.2.tar.gz
cd 
tar xvzf vice-3.2.tar.gz
cd vice-3.2

Configure and build

./configure --enable-ethernet --enable-realdevice --enable-sdlui2 --enable-vte --enable-hardsid\
 --enable-cpuhistory --enable-platformdox 

Or with gnome gui

sudo apt install libgtk-3-dev
./configure --enable-ethernet --enable-realdevice --enable-native-gtk3ui  --enable-hardsid \
   --enable-cpuhistory --enable-platformdox  --with-x  

make -j 6
sudo make install

Needs X-server to run.
<pre>
sudo tasksel

Select XUbuntu minimal Install and reboot

• I like tasksel. It allows me to be lazy

Needs SDLVideo Renderer. opengl opengles2 software

I think the problem is that I was doing this on a kvm-qemu vm with no graphics card. I'm going to try again on a spare metal 990.
I was able to get it going on a metal 990 using sdl1.2-dev and blackbox with an x-server. I'm thinking that I will need to run the bare minimal xserver to do this.

I'm working this again, but on a RPi Zero W.

After expending much energy, I decided to not reinvent the wheel and use combian as the base and then make the necessary edits. see building vice v.2
