    Semi-brickage After Firmware 2 Update

    OK, I'll try this when I get home and see what happens. EDIT: Nah. Didn't work. Back it goes then. :)

    Semi-brickage After Firmware 2 Update

    OK. On further advice from EvilDragon, it looks like the problem is faulty NAND, and the only solution is an exchange. I suppose the upgrade to Firmware 2 is what found the bad blocks. Oh well, I'll try and arrange an exchange. I'll keep the thread updated. It least it wasn't my fault! Hurrah!

    Semi-brickage After Firmware 2 Update

    Yeah, that's the unbricking guide that I tried, I did the kernel + filesystem bits, but not the uboot bit. Maybe I should just go ahead and do the whole thing. At the moment I've got nothing to lose.

    Semi-brickage After Firmware 2 Update

    Yup, that's how I've been starting the update process each time. EDIT: OK, I left it at the "formatting" stage for about 5 hours last night. I'm pretty sure it's not going to go past it. :)

    Semi-brickage After Firmware 2 Update

    OK, here we go... I've tried updating to Firmware 2.0. It updates the firmware successfully, does the patching part, but then never gets past the formatting stage. It was done from a freshly formatted card, which has always worked for previous updates. I've tried the update a few times now...

    Firmware 2.0.0 Next Week!

    OK, after reading the unbricking guide, I've come to the following conclusions. When switching it on without an SD card in: 1) I'm getting the black screen with the GP2X logo and the gay jingle, so u-boot is fine. 2) It's getting as far as the green loading screen, so the kernel is fine. 3)...

    Firmware 2.0.0 Next Week!

    Tried it twice, leaving it for about half an hour both times. It updates the firmware, does the patching part, but then never gets past the formatting bit. I don't have another card to try it with, but this one has always worked for previous updates. Edit: I've brought it in to work with me...

    N E Thing Good

    GNU Aspell would probably just be a recompile, and would run fine under Sterm. :)

    Just Wondering

    I got my gp2x for my 30th birthday. All you young whippersnappers can get the hell off my lawn.

    Frotz Z-code Interpreter

    Ah, I just noticed that they linked to your upload from the front page. It's probably the exact same binary anyway! :)

    Frotz Z-code Interpreter

    It's already public. I didn't modify the source.

    Z-Code Games at the IF Archive - Enjoy! You have to scroll through the characters at the bottom with the stick. It's a bit of a ball-ache, but it's better than nothing :)

    Frotz Z-code Interpreter

    Thanks to the beautiful and curvy Sterm, I've managed to do a quick port of of Frotz for the gp2x. (Yes, I have blu-tack on my joystick, what of it?) I need to figure out how to get it to compile with ncurses support under the arm-linux toolchain, but it's good for starters. I'll upload it to...
