## Installation

Install the [nestopia](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/nestopia/) package from the [AUR](/index.php/AUR "AUR"). Alternatively, install [nestopia-git](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/nestopia-git/) for the development version.

## Troubleshooting

### No audio with libao backend

Currently the libao backend is broken. It's recommended to change the audio API to *SDL* in *Emulator -> Configuration -> Audio* .
