Beeb emulators?

[risc_user]

Hi,
Can anyone recommend a native BBC Micro B emulator?
I feel like playing Repton and Elite but I haven't got a TV to use with my Beeb.
I've used windows BBC emulators using Wine but they run too slowly.
But that may be because I used a PII laptop, and everything seems to run slowly on that.

See: http://www.nvg.ntnu.no/bbc/

Maybe try http://www.mikebuk.dsl.pipex.com/beebem/index.html (native or windows/wine version) or see http://www.google.com/linux?hl=en&q=bbc ... 20emulator
I've used BeebEm/wine in the past and it worked fine (after all, the BBC was only 1MHz wasn't it?), but haven't used any BBC emulator recently.

P.S. what distro/desktop environment do you use (kde, gnome etc.)? It may be faster running a less demanding window manager (e.g. Fluxbox, XFCE etc.). Also, there may be some unnecessary services running, depending on the setup.

Do you need and emulator or just those games? There are ports of both those games to linux. A quick google for 'repton linux' will yield a result in the top 10 and for elite you need oolite.

I'm sure the MESS emulator would have something in there

I've got a faster computer now so I'm using BeebEm on WINE. I couldn't get the UNIX version to install so being lazy I chose the WINE route.
Thank you for all your suggestions!
