How can your average Linux user use this?

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Describe your system:
 - Operating System (be specific): Linux Mint 9
 - Machine type (32-bit or 64-bit): x64
 - Mupen64Plus version: 1.99
 - Plugins used: None!

For visual artifacts, give:
- game name and CRC/MD5 hash (printed on console)
- description of the artifact (missing polygons, flashing, wrong colors,
etc)

Describe the problem:
All I got was an executable that doesn't execute at all.  I'd love a version of 
the emu that I could actually double click and run!

Please provide any additional information below.

First, make sure to use the latest version, which is 1.99.3 at the time of this 
writing.

There is no binary package that you just click and run because the current 
versions are still developer packages and not meant for the typical end-user.  
There is no standard GUI yet.  There are two ways to run it:

- In the shell (run Terminal).  This is the standard way, and there is plenty 
of documentation on this site that teaches how to use it.
- With a 3rd party GUI front-end.  There's a link in the wiki where you can 
find these.

Otherwise, you'd just have to wait until Mupen64Plus 2.0 is released, or 
whenever they decide to implement an official GUI.

If you really want it, compile it: CompilingFromHg
