I've built Visual boy advance from this github repo. It requires a few things to build

Dependencies
cmake
make
gcc
gcc-c++
sdl2-devel
sdl2_ttf-devel
zlib-devel
libpng-devel
libarchive-devel
glib2-devel


Although it builds, installs and draws to the screen but that's it, games don't run and touch input doesn't seem to work.

It gives the following error "Loading error: Unrecognised archive format", the ROM's I've tried and actually work on my laptop, along with the BIOS file, so I can't see why it's complaining

Maybe ROM is RARed or something like that.

I don't think that he's a noob to not know to extract a rom file.

exactly, The last thing mentioned is that I tried the exact same roms on my laptop and they worked fine. That and visual boy advance supports roms in zips. I tried both the gba file itself, and in a zip, on the phone and on my laptop, on the laptop it worked in both cases, on the phone, none.
