        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! :)

            @Kartman Which operating system are you using? (name, release number, and 32 or 64 bit)

            If your system is 32 bit, try

            sudo apt install libglew-dev:i386
            

            If your system is 64 bit, try

            sudo apt install libglew-dev
            

            If that doesn't fix your problem, please show us the output of the sudo apt command. Besides, the daphne.sh should take care of this.

                @construkt Seems like you (or someone else) wrote or edited your daphne.sh in Windows which has slightly different codes for line endings (the \r Ubuntu is complaining about).

                You should be able to fix it with the command line tool dos2unix. You can install it in Ubuntu with

                sudo apt install dos2unix
                

                and then convert the file

                cd /home/pi/RetroPie-Setup/scriptmodules/emulators/
                dos2unix daphne.sh
                

                or if you don't want to change the original file in place

                cd /home/pi/RetroPie-Setup/scriptmodules/emulators/
                dos2unix -n daphne.sh daphne-new.sh
                

                will save the edited file as daphne-new.sh.

                  @Clyde i fixed it.

                  I didn't like some of the spacing, so I took out the problematic ones and it seems to work okay now. Dragons Lair runs really fast though, its easy to get lost.

                  I definitely was the one to edit it, since I copied and pasted it into Notepad++, so that makes sense. Thanks for the response, it's good to know what the hell is happening with this stuff. I'm just winging it, trying to edit code and seeing what happens. RetroPie is on my little Intel NUC, but I do pretty much all the handling of stuff with my Windows desktop, then transfer it over.

                    Good to hear that it's working now. By the way, you can save files with correct Linux EOL (end of lines) with Notepad++, see here.

                      FYI...I am running Ubuntu Mini 18.04.4 x86_64 and was receiving the same error. I had to install the 32-bit library to get around it.

                        I've been trying to recreate these modifications to install daphne on my Atomic Pi. I got the emulator to install, but it unfortunately still doesn't show the roms in emulation station. If anyone knows what might cause this, I'd appreciate any advice you can share!

                        Update: I've gotten emulation station to show roms, but the emulator is still giving me an error when trying to run saying that vldp2 is not found.

                            Sorry, forgot to update. Manually installing vldp2 fixed the issue. I'm not sure why the lines in the script didn't work properly, but doing it myself worked fine. 🤷‍♂️

                                    @mrcoolspan I've installed Ubunto 20.4 and the latest updates and RetroPie from mrcoolspan .git
                                    The setup script fails to execute and logs a dependency i cannot resolve:

                                    E: Unable to locate package python-pyudev
                                    Unable to install packages required by /home/arcade/RetroPie-Setup/retropie_packages.sh - Could not install package(s): python-pyudev.

                                      @heavyholyman It's not part of the official Ubuntu repositories after 18.04 anymore:

                                      https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=python-pyudev&suite=default&section=all&arch=any&searchon=names

                                      Until @mrcoolspan updates the script, you could try to download and install the 18.04 version. Choose a mirror in your region, download the file, and try to install it with this command:

                                      sudo dpkg -i python-pyudev_0.21.0-1_all.deb
                                      

                                      I didn't test this, though. There might be other packages missing or at the wrong (newer) version in 20.04.

                                        @clyde Thanks for the advice! It was tedious, but i finally got Daphne working properly on Ubuntu 20.04.2. To install from MrCoolSpan's git, i installed python-pyudev as you suggested. However, it first needed python-six, which i tried to install using 'sudo apt-get install python-six'. That also threw an error, but things improved after 'sudo apt --fix-broken install'. After that command, i was able to install python-six, then python-pyudev.

                                        With the pre-reqs taken care of, i was then able to run retropie-setup and install daphne. Games launched from EmulationStation, but i prefer Attract-Mode front-end. Attract would not launch any games, and displayed an error that it could not load VLDP dynamic library. That was resolved by copying libvldp2.so to the /lib/ directory. 'sudo cp /opt/retropie/emulators/daphne/libvldp2.so /lib'

                                        All is working now, but i sure wish daphne simply worked 'out of the box' instead of requiring the extra steps!

                                          @heavyholyman Good to hear that it works. As a little word of advice, I would have linked the libvldp2.so to /lib rather than copying it:

                                          sudo ln -f -s /opt/retropie/emulators/daphne/libvldp2.so /lib/libvldp2.so
                                          

                                          The -f option (force) will replace any existing file or link with the same name in the destination with the new link. The -s option will create a so-called symbolic link (symlink) or soft link that shows you its destination when you list it with the ls command.

                                          ls -l /lib/libvldp2.so
                                          

                                          (Both l are lowercase L and not ones.)

                                          This way, you'll always know where this file in one of your system's directories came from. But this is only a measure for a tidy system and shouldn't make any operational difference. 🧐
