The problem is really the setup process... As Atari users, we have been accustomed to unzip an archive somewhere our hard disk (or floppy), then run the software immediately. Running Linux software is a headache without a package manager. And for XaAES it is even worse: it must be compatible with the kernel, there is the risk to make the system unbootable, etc... If there is a detailed install procedure for the binaries (I mean documentation), as well as a recovery procedure if something goes wrong, everyone will try he binary, and I hope, give feedback. I believe it could be as simple as replacing xaaes.km if the versions are close enough... -- Vincent Rivière
