is somebody able to run games with this gba emulator called visualboyadvance?

I do not understand the read me file:

"This is a straight port of VisualBoyAdvance SDL. Copy VisualBoyAdvance.gpe, VisualBoyAdvance.cfg, and vba_launch.gpe anywhere on your sd card. Edit vba_launch.gpe and change rom.gba to your rom and run vba_launch.gpe through the games menu. Zip files aren't supported yet. Controls are changeable in VisualBoyAdvance.cfg"
 
so all GBA games run smoothly on this? *still waiting for mine in mail*

Are you stupid or just naive?

Good enough, I though it would be posted on the news or something. :)

Ah, didn't know that existed. I'll take a look at it. It looks like it might be alot easier to get that optimized than VisualBoyAdvance. I don't thik I really want to try to optimize VisualBoyAdvance anyway, I just wanted to see if I could port it.:)
 
There were two GBA emulators for the GP32, one was a port of VBA, much like the one here, it was extremely slow and was likely never going to be able to get much better. Then there was something quite different, GPAdvance, it wasn't really an emulator, instead it made use of the fact that both the GBA and GP32 has the same brand of CPU. It didn't emulate the main processor, instead it lived on the GP32 hardware, though it was never finished, it was of decent speed and showed extremely good promise.

If you are seriously attempting GBA emulation on the GP2X, you should definately consider going the GPAdvance route.
