In terminal type the following:
echo “deb http://rowdy.dfreer.org:8080 hardy main” | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list
wget http://rowdy.dfreer.org:8080/7572013D.gpd -O- | sudo apt-key add –
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install zsnes32
zsnes32 -ad oss (for the first run from terminal)
zsnes32 (for every other subsequent run)
This is some dude’s private server/package, so who knows if this will be up forever.. but it works flawlessly for me.
And for a treat – here’s a nice little relative icon for you to use on your desktop! Enjoy!

According to some community people the latest Ubuntu GCC compiler doesn’t compile zsnes properly so you need to use a debian .deb style package to install it.
Here is a link to a working zsnes build for intel! I think it will work for amd 32 bit installs too.
http://packages.ubuntu.com/gutsy/i386/zsnes/download
REMOVE ANY OTHER ZSNES PACKAGE YOU CURRENTLY HAVE INSTALLED BEFORE DOING THIS!
Click the link
Pick a mirror Download the file
Open with Debian Package Installer (Default Option in firefox)
To get to the emulator Click Application -> Games -> ZSNES
ALSO don’t install any updates for this package using the update manager the newly compiled ubutu version of zsnes is messed.
