      Hello
      i have made a update in the daphne.sh script
      it can now install the daphne emulator on a ubuntu 18.04 x86_64 machine
      just copy this to you /RetroPie-Setup/scriptmodules/emulators/daphne.sh script
      and run retropie_setup.sh ;)

        Thanks for this script!
        On a brand new Ubuntu 18.04 x86_64 install, it errored out - Daphne.bin not found.
        Logs showed an error during compile indicating - sdl-config not found.
        My system had sdl2-config instead.
        I ended up installing libsdl1.2-dev, then Daphne install completed without error.
        After placing the laserdisc files and roms in their proper directories, i'm now able to launch and play from emulationstation on my amd64 Linux PC.
        THANKS AGAIN !!!!

            Somehow, I missed this thread in September. Thanks from another (K)ubuntu 18.04 user!

              I can at least now get it to load the emulator but when I run the games it just bounces back to the game selection. I have the file structure the same as on my Pi3b+

              roms/daphne/ace.daphne/"All the files for the game .ogg, .dat, .commands, .txt and .m2v"

              ace.zip is in roms/daphne/roms/

                You do know Daphne-Singe can be ran through wine right? I made a tutorial and setup files over in the "ideas & development" section a while back. So you could be playing everything.. Timegal, Fire n Ice, Chantzes Stone (Strahl), etc. The shooting games even work with dolphinbar.

                    Now that sounds good. Through wine cmd, I have a little pop up window every time a game loads.. If your setup takes that away. I'll run with it.

                      Are you using DavidGriffith's git or DirtBagXon's git for your version's git?

                      Because both seem to have issues playing Timegal / Ninja Hayate.

                      David's 1.14 Singe shuts down when pressing start and DirtBag's 1.18 Singe has sound speed issues as well as the shutdown on pressing start issue.

                        then copy your games to ~/RetroPie/roms/alg/roms
                        etc like this ~/RetroPie/roms/alg/roms/crimepatrol
                        then run ~/RetroPie/roms/alg/symlink.sh

                        edit /opt/retropie/emulators/daphne/daphne.sh and change this line

                        xrandr --output "HDMI-0" --mode 1920x1080
                        

                        and set you current display resolution
                        do the same with /opt/retropie/emulators/daphne/singe.sh

                        you can chance the emu display resolution also x-320 y-240

                        start retropie and you games is in alg ;)

                          I'm already setup withe mine now but this is great for end users.
                          You should checkout DirtBagXon's git. They have an update Singe for x64 Linux!
                          Singe 1.18 - I thought I never see that.. It supports multiple mice among other updates.

                          For resolution, I usually do:

                          -fullscreen_window

                          It fits to the the screen with 4:3 ar

                                  Here goes my modified system art to represent Daphne Singe for whomever.
                                  Place it in the opt/emulationstation/themes/carbon/daphne/art folder.

                                  Edit the Daphne theme.xml to read:

                                  <image name="logo">
                                  <path>./art/system.png</path>
                                  

                                  system.png

                                        @MrCoolSpan Hey there MrCoolSpan. I saw your post about running the Daphne emu with Singe on RetroPie. Do you have this running decent at this point? I am trying to put together a RetroPie image that runs only Daphne and I would love to get Singe working as I am mainly trying to get Time Gal and Ninja Hayate working. I have the two working on my PC but I am relatively new to working on the Raspberry Pi and there is not a lot of info... anywhere on getting singe to work on Raspberry Pi. Can you suggest anywhere for documentation or are the details that you posted everything that is needed? (Besides roms and video files, obviously) Going to try to throw a Rasp Pi together this weekend with Daphne - but it will feel incomplete unless I can get singe going. Thoughts?

                                            Anybody care to help... Installed and compiled with the daphne.sh dated Feb28 at 4:13. Seemed to go fine but, when the emulator is run out of EmulationStation, I get the following error message.

                                            /opt/retropie/emulators/daphne/daphne.bin: error while loading shared libraries: libGLEW.so.1.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
                                            

                                            I'm a bit new at this but would really love to get Dragon's Lair running. Any help would be greatly appreciated! :)
