I installed mupen64plus using this command: apt-get install mupen64plus, then I tried to run it from the command line, but it didn't found the executable. Then I tried to look it up in xfce's list of program, and it didn't appear in the list. I also followed the instructions from the first answer of this question: How do I install mupen64plus? and not luck either.
Note however, that mupen64plus-core (or mupen64plus-core-hg on AUR) is just the core, and does not include a frontend. The Qt and GTK frontends have been scrapped, though, and the only existing frontend so far is mupen64plus-ui-console, which is a CLI frontend. You launch a game with mupen64plus-cli, see mupen64plus-cli --help for more information. As a sidenote, I believe that the Mupen64Plus team would appreciate if someone helped with creating a GTK frontend, since I believe the head developer(s) will probably be focusing on the Qt frontend if any.
To get Mupen64Plus 2.0 working, you will need to install all six modules. They are all part of the mupen64plus-hg group, but unfortunately neither yaourt nor the AUR web interface supports groups as far as I know, so you will have to install each module separately. With yaourt:
Step 2:
Now you will probably want to configure the controller, especially if it wasn't supported already. You will need to edit the config file /.config/mupen64plus/mupen64plus.cfg, since no GUI frontend exists yet. Since revision 55 of mupen64plus-core, Mupen64Plus will create the config file if none exists when launching a game (previously you had to run mupen64plus-cli with the flag --saveoptions to create the config file). Mupen64Plus does not need a config file to run, but if you wish to tweak the settings you will need it.
Go to the Mupen64plus homepage or as of the time of this guide go straight to the 2.5 release page -core/releases/tag/2.5. You will want to get the mupen64plus-bundle-win32-2.5.zip or if you are running on lower end hardware get the dynarec version.
Go to "C:\Users\user name\AppData\Roaming\Mupen64Plus" and find the mupen64plus.cfg, open this file in your favourite text editor and edit the lines as you see fit but here are some immediate recommendations to look for:
Forums online suggest changing the mupen64plus.cfg, changing the output_port from 1 to 0, I think thats changing from hdmi to onboard jack. Does not solve issue. Also another suggestion about changing

In lutris I installed the mupen64plus runner and when check off fullscreen it does go onto fullscreen mode but it will be squared as when I use the terminal it will be more stretched out. How do I get it to fill the screen?
I also tried adding -gfx mupen64plus-video-glide64mk2.so to the command prefix field but when I do the runner will not launch the game. Is the mupen64plus runner not working anymore? I like mupen64plus over any other n64 emulator.
But the only issue when I do this it is st to be under the Linux platform and Linux runner, I would like it to be set under the N64 platform and the Mupen64plus runner. I cannot seem to add arguements to mupen64plus runners.
I recently upgraded to a pi2 and have been trying to get a n64 emulator working on RetroPie 3.2.1. Unfortunately mupen64plus keeps segfaulting and just will not launch any games (I have tried several). The following is what I get when attempting to launch a game from CLI.
I have already tried editing lines 48 and 49 in mupen64plus.cfg in /mnt/sdcard/Android/data/paulscode.android.mupen64plus.free/, but when I launched the game, the changes didn't seem to be there. (I used the SDL Keysym listing.) Also, when I went back to the config file, the changes had been reset.
Mupen64Plus, as released by the core development team, lacks a GUI. It is run either directly from the command line with arguments or by dragging and dropping ROM files onto the executable. Emulator and plugin settings are changed by editing the included mupen64plus.cfg file. If a GUI is desired and/or you don't want to bother with command lines or config files, there are several third party frontends and forks available that provide a more streamlined experience. See the Frontends section below for more.
By default, Mupen64Plus applies a ton of audio buffering, causing extremely delayed audio, more so than most other emulators. This can be mitigated by lowering the buffer settings in the mupen64plus.cfg file, though lowering it too much will cause audio crackling. For improved audio latency and sync, consider using Mupen64Plus-Next through RetroArch.
