IMO the framerate needs to improve along with the sound. Right now it's kind of a bummer to play.. Especially games that need decent framerate like Sonic Advanced and Final Fantasy VI. This could be solved by simply adding a frameskip option and some more optimizing.

You can go to the VGBA options and change sound quality from best to fast, this may improve things slightly but a lot of my roms sound really bad... too much stuttering and bad framerates.

I agree with the above poster...frameskip and some serious optimising is needed...

Because of the crappy sound I'm trying to shut the sound, but I can't find the option. I guess it would also help with emulation, since you're eliminating the sound "load".

Also, for some reason, I can't find the option for fullscreen. Is it implemented?

Cheers

To turn off sound completely you need to lauch vgba from xtern with the -nosound option.
You can launch from a shortcut by creating a custom .desktop file in /usr/share/applications/hildon/

For instance here is the one I use to Launch the Yu-Gi-Oh game. It was created by copying vgba.desktop (as root) and editing the Exec line. The X-Osso-Type line had to be commented out with a # in order to make it work.

/usr/share/applications/hildon/yugioh.desktop
Code:
[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Version=3.6
Type=Application
Name=Yu-Gi-Oh
Exec=/usr/bin/vgba -nosound /home/user/MyDocs/Games/Yu-Gi-Oh!-GX-DuelAca
Icon=vgba
X-Window-Icon=vgba
X-Window-Icon-Dimmed=vgba
X-HildonDesk-ShowInToolbar=true
#X-Osso-Service=com.fms.vgba
X-Osso-Type=application/x-executable
MimeType=application/x-gba;
Terminal=False

To get full screen hold down the Ctrl key and press enter.
