The flatpak is designed for x86 CPUs, so it won't work on the Switch's ARM CPU. To get an ARM Linux build, you'll have to compile it yourself.

To install dependencies, run something like this in the terminal: sudo apt install build-essential portaudio19-dev libwxgtk3.2-dev git

Then to compile and install, run this: git clone https://github.com/Hydr8gon/NooDS.git && cd NooDS && make -j$(nproc) && sudo make install

Follow the prompts and enter your password as needed. I don't have an Ubuntu install to confirm this so hopefully the dependencies are right.

OMG~! damn you Linux..... it did install but now is not opening not sure why when i go to properties it says This file is a link and does not have Permissions. i have no idea what to do next....

Edit: manage to get the permission that i need it to run NooDS sadly is impossible to to play it since input configuration is not compatible with the switch button selection simply wont happen when pressing the buttons on the joycons to configure, Thanks
