# SEGA Lindbergh Emulator # SEGA Lindbergh Emulator
This project aims to hook and emulate the various different parts of the SEGA Lindbergh allowing the games to run on modern versions of Linux. This alpha stage project emulates the SEGA Lindbergh, allowing games to run on modern Linux computers with any NVIDIA graphics card.
You can view the supported titles [here.](docs/supported.md) You can view the supported titles [here.](docs/supported.md)
You will need an nvidia graphics card and I have tested with the latest version of Ubuntu.
Please be aware that the project is in very early stages, and there will be lots of issues with all games.

I recomend that you do not run this as root, and instead use the usergroups for input/dialout to give the emulator access to what it needs. The Lindbergh games expect full control of the Linux OS and with root privilages it is possible that they could cause damage to your computer.

A `lindbergh` executable is provided in the build directory to easily run the games. Place it in the same directory as the game elf, and run `./lindbergh` to automatically start the game with the correct environment variables set, or run `./lindbergh -t` for test mode.
