Linux EMU?

[frash23]

Hello,

Like most people know, linux based systems are far more efficient at allocating and assigning RAM and CPU to processes, thus making it a far more efficient system for server hosting.

Is there any EMU which runs stable on a linux system, or one that has C++ sources available, without major windows dependencies?
Has anyone tried doing this, and if so, how did it work out?

Thanks in advance,

There are none released as far as I'm aware, sorry.

Oh, I see.

That's a shame. Windows it is then.
Thanks for the answer!

You can get an emulator to run on Mono.
I managed to tweak Butterfly to run without any problems.

There are also many Java emulators out there.

That sounds pretty inefficient though (especially java!), is it actually worth it?

The JVM is a very well designed virtual machine, capable of performing close to optimized C/C++ code.
Mono is pretty decent too - unless you're on a very small machine, any optimizations would probably result in unnecessary work.
