How To Fix cassette: command not found in Ubuntu / Debian / Kali Linux / Raspbian

In Ubuntu cassette is provided by xtrs package.

xtrs is:

xtrs is an X-based emulator for the Tandy/Radio Shack line of Zilog Z80-based microcomputers popular in the late 1970s and early 1980s. It features cassette, floppy, and hard drive emulation, timer interrupt emulation, file import and export from the host operating system, support for most of the undocumented Z80 instructions, and a built-in debugger. Real floppy drives can be used, and, if an OSS-compatible sound driver is available, application-based sound can be played and real cassettes read and written directly through the sound card or via WAVE files. Several hi-res graphics cards are emulated and, in Model 4/4P mode, mice are supported. There is also real-time clock, sound card, serial port, joystick, and CPU clock speedup emulation.

xtrs requires ROM images from the original machines. The ROMs are copyrighted by Radio Shack and are not freely licensed. (Exception: in Model 4P mode, a freely-licensed boot ROM included with this package can be used to boot a Model 4 operating system from a diskette image.)

xtrs is maintained upstream at GitHub: see https://github.com/TimothyPMann/xtrs.

To fix this problem, we can install more using the command below.

sudo apt-get -y install xtrs

This command might take some time to finish depending on your machine internet connection.

You can also use apt command to install xtrs.

sudo apt -y install xtrs

Or if you have aptitude installed you can use the following command.

sudo aptitude install xtrs
