Kinda off topic (sorry) but I have to use retroarch and the Reicast libretro core to emulate Dreamcast titles. I have never been able to compile a standalone Linux build of Reicast, so I was forced to look at retroarch. Retroarch is kind of an unwieldy beast but seems to work well from the command line. Configuring the DC BIOS is really the hardest part. Libretro is soooo anal about the location of it's BIOS files. I had to end up throwing a copy of the BIOS in a directory called 'dc' in with the .cdi GD-ROM image files. After doing this the Reicast core fired up and ran as well as it could. There are still all kinds of graphical rendering errors and it's a little wonky while playing sometimes. But it's about all we got aside from LXDream. I've never had luck with LXDream. I guess you could use WINE and a Windows Dreamcast emulator, but I'm not sure what is even available.
The command line for retroarch/libretro is like this
retroarch <path to reicast_libretro.so> <path to .cdi GD-ROM image>
Hope this helps.
