It is just so you can tell people that your "gameboy" runs Linux Otherwise it seems pretty useless right now.papapopalung posted on May 24 2004 at 09:34 PM said:like it says... what can you do with GP linux? not much apart from looking at a penguin with a hat on, or have we suddenly got hundreds of linux programs to use?
You are far from the first to post about it, there are many threads about this very thing on this forum.papapopalung posted on May 24 2004 at 08:15 PM said:so it's as useless as i feared then? no wonder i'm the first to post about it...
bravo, linux nerds... you've really outdone yourselves this time... :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:
edit: am i being too harsh?
If you consider a software program that pushes a peice of hardware to its limits, shows the extreme possiblities of the hardware, all the time providing the blueprints for anyone to use as a base for future projects, useless, you have problems.papapopalung posted on May 24 2004 at 10:27 PM said:well excuse me for thinking that a useless piece of software is a waste of time...
if that makes me a complete idiot well so be it.
Okay, I planned never to write in the general forums again because there are so many people who don't care about copyrights, respecting developers and in general not behaving very mature. But THIS post makes me too angry. Listen, WHO the fuck cares what ANY GP32 project can do for you? Didn't you realize that those projects aren't made specifically for YOU or any other GP32 user? Those projects are done for the enjoyment, recreation and education of the coders/porters. Why should anyone give a FUCK about the fact that you like or dislike a project? If you don't like that project, why comment it? There are dozens of people who are really looking forward to get this thing going, don't be a turd and sabotage their fun by discouraging the developer(s) or selfish behaviour.Alpha2 posted on May 25 2004 at 10:04 AM said:Not to sounds like a prick or anything but what all this says to me is: GPlinux , great, woo hoo!, now what can it do for me?
