      if anyone wants to install Gianas Return on ports
      here is my guide for Ubuntu 18.04 i think 16.04 is the same:

      #install multiarch support & libs
      
      sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
      sudo apt-get install libsdl1.2-dev libsdl-image1.2-dev libsdl-mixer1.2-dev libsdl-ttf2.0-dev
      
      #Download & move Gianas Return
      
      su root
      #enter root passwort (if no set root user pass)
      
      mkdir /opt/retropie/ports/giana
      cd /tmp
      wget http://www.retroguru.com/gianas-return/gianas-return-v.latest-linux.tar.gz
      tar xzf gianas-return-v.latest-linux.tar.gz
      mv giana /opt/retropie/ports/giana/
      
      #make executable
      sudo chmod +x /opt/retropie/ports/giana/giana_linux64
      
      #exit root user
      exit
      
      #create folder, simlink & runcommand
      mkdir /opt/retropie/configs/ports/giana
      ln -s /opt/retropie/configs/ports/giana /home/pi/.giana
      
      sudo nano /home/pi/.giana/emulators.cfg
      giana = "pushd /opt/retropie/ports/giana; /opt/retropie/ports/giana/giana_linux64 -fs; popd -fs"
      default = "giana"
      
      sudo nano /home/pi/.giana/giana.cfg
      vol_music=100
      vol_sound=15
      fast=0
      j_jump=0
      j_fire=3
      j_start=7
      j_up=1
      j_down=4
      j_left=8
      j_right=2
      vscroll=1
      k_jump=273
      k_fire=32
      k_start=13
      k_up=273
      k_down=274
      k_left=276
      k_right=275
      mpFlagsOVERSAMPLING=1
      mpResamplingMode=1
      mpFlagsNOISE_REDUCTION=1
      mpFlagsREVERB=0
      mpReverbDepth=0
      mpReverbDelay=40
      mpFlagsMEGABASS=0
      mpBassAmount=0
      mpBassRange=10
      mpFlagsSURROUND=0
      mpSurroundDepth=0
      mpSurroundDelay=5
      

      Add start script to ports

      sudo nano  /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/ports/"Giana's Return.sh"
      #!/bin/bash
      "/opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand/runcommand.sh" 0 _PORT_ "giana" ""
      

      Have fun...
      p.s. at the Raspberry i'm not able to play with my 8bitdo controller. With ubuntu it works great.
