    Computer On Module

    This: http://www.compulab.co.il/i886/html/i886-sb-datasheet.htm is much more interesting as it's a full PC but in so small factor. At available CPU is PentiumIII up to 1260MHz so not bad at all. It'd be ideal for an arcade type cabinet.

    GP2X Outcast Squidge-mmu-hack .. Curious :)

    I'd prefer to use sidebuttons for upper diagonals. Then deny them from a stick. It'd make PrinceOfPersia finally playable and would improve other games as whell. (those what are using upper diagonals for jumping) And the major improvement would be making sound perfect. I'm not expecting...

    Little Help Making Myself Clear.

    I try. ;) You can compile for both platforms except situation you would have some inline Arm assembler code. Then it will not compile for x86 obviously. ;) There is also a resource thing - a PC is much more powerfull than GP2x so limits of target system shouldn't be forgotten. You might...

    Little Help Making Myself Clear.

    SDL is a fine API and since we have blitter supported is a quite logical choice. But to do some things direct pixel manipulation is needed and then nothing beats direct framebuffer access. Most of these effects can be done rather easily on Atari800 (except those with texture mapping). Now...

    Announce: Nethack 0.51

    Few years ago I was basically addicted to the ADOM. Liked it more than Nethack but... as I know ADOM too well I will try Nethack again. I never noticed or tried any of the earlier releases, but this kicks @ass! And such games are really the best! :) Quite addictive...

    Little Help Making Myself Clear.

    I suggested reading this topic and making your own routines. Direct framebuffer access isn't difficult at all. And doing so you will not need any external lib. http://wiki.gp2x.org/wiki/Getting_started_...P2X_development There are some scripts... they work.

    Squidge's Mmu Hack: Discovery Of The Month :)

    Think of a possibility that GP2'x blitter can be an obsolete thing. (but I don't know if it'd be bad or good? - rather good anyway that a software routines could get you better results ;) ) And for GP2x's hardware... the most power to potentiatlly to get is in GP2x's Videoprocessor. This thing...

    Oh... You have no idea :) what kind of pandora box Squidge just opened... (so close...)

    Perhaps not. Why you are so negative? :) There is always a place for an improvement, remember.

    Squidge's Mmu Hack: Discovery Of The Month :)

    Could it be used for memory filling? And what about cache locking? (being able to force constant caching of a memory area)

    Squidge's Mmu Hack: Discovery Of The Month :)

    The Squidge is one of most briliant members of what the GP32x has. His work is great (thought I could beat some of his routiness in snes emulator what I was studying - using by hand made assembler only :) ) and thanks to EvilDragon for appreciating his work. It's very motivating to have such...

    Gp2x Now Slightly Broken

    Where is exactly a problem? In a case or in LCD itself. Please tell more? It's looking like a front panel is damaged. If you are finding it's unacceptable then I'd try to get a replacement. Then you are lucky - screen cover can be replaced or even whole front panel. Asks your shop for that...

    Anyone Tried The Vista Public Beta?

    This is a joke? :rolleyes: It's a funny country indeed and still (via some dirty links) satellite to some other coutry (a former "empire"). If you had a polish football national team in a mind you were rightfully so. It's a joke. (and I'm feeling so sorry for all those my natives what are...

    GP2X Different Kind Of Emulator :-)

    Thanks for the link and I will try it. But it looks like being an overkill for just testing some assembler/framebuffer code.

    GP2X Different Kind Of Emulator :-)

    Squidge, I'm looking forward to your GP2x emu. I have an simple idea - could you make just an one with Arm CPU simulation and framebuffer support? (plus built assembler/dissassembler/debugger - might be simple) It doesn't have to boot any GP2x firmware but it'd be usefull to test and...

    Anyone Tried The Vista Public Beta?

    According to this: http://www.amd.com/us-en/ConnectivitySolut...3_10837,00.html there is no nx2001. Well... one polish shop is claiming to have such CPU: http://sklep.komputronik.pl/pelny.php?id=29551 It's probably renamed OEM part what is being sold as retail. An quite normal practise here in...

    Gp2x Stick Replacement Petition

    The idea would look like: The major problem is the size of microswitches. I couldn't find smaler ones. The rest should be easy - microswitches could be just glued inside. Wiring shouldn't be that hard either. To make a bar to act properly would more of a problem. Center push could be...

    Ninja

    Not so little "machine". It's a powerhouse with XC3S500E chip. It has 20 hardwired multipliers, 10K of usable logic gates, clockrates over 300MHz (but this kit is limited only to 50MHz). Plus there is 64MB ddr memory on a board. Properly programmed it'd would obliterate GP2x easily. And it's...

    Stuck Getting Started

    Sure. First you need to install one of those toolchains to be able to compile for GP2x. I suggests going first here. I personally decided to use devkitGP2X for not an apparent reason. It just works for me. Next step would learning of SDL library: http://www.libsdl.org/ There is even a faster...
