This book was good though needed hardware diagrams, more explanation of the chipset- it's more complicated than for example a standalone NES ppu so deserves more technical detail.
Use fs-uae-launcher instead of fs-uae.
Trying out fs-uae on Ubuntu 16.04- it boots slowly and takes over the mouse and keyboard and doesn't give them back, though can press ctrl-alt-f1 and get into a terminal to kill it from the command line. Also can press f12 and move the selection to the quit x in the upper right.
Is there a keyboard shortcut to give back the mouse and keyboard, or a way to boot with more sane settings?

F12 + G apparently is what I need.

Version 2.2.3 seems to lock up a lot, doesn't release the mouse and keyboard when it does lock up so requires ctrl-alt-f1 then kill -9 the launcher and uae.
Try latest from source.
sudo apt-get install libmpeg2-4-dev libopenal-dev
git clone https://github.com/FrodeSolheim/fs-uae.git
./bootstrap
./configure --prefix=$HOME/other/install

That worked
make install
...
which fs-uae
/home/lucasw/other/install/bin/fs-uae
which fs-uae-launcher
/usr/bin/fs-uae-launcher
The install didn't get the launcher- will the launcher select the right binary?
Should uninstall the other one.
The version is 2.2.3, so likely has same issues.
fs-uae-launcher is separate project https://github.com/FrodeSolheim/fs-uae-launcher.git
There is no configure script, edit the prefix in Makefile, then make install.
Running it fails, even after uninstalling fs-uae
which fs-uae-launcher
/home/lucasw/other/install/bin/fs-uae-launcher
fs-uae-launcher
bash: /usr/bin/fs-uae-launcher: No such file or directory
2.6.2 is on Ubuntu 16.04 - it seems to work a lot better - why isn't the stable in github that version? Or was I not really running the built source version?

It's smoother than this, that is a gif made from a bunch of screenshots.
