    GP2X Moving Files To A Ramdisk During Program Execution

    can't see why you're trying such thing... in any way you will surely waste some time to completely read the file from SD, in tmpfs case you'll have to wait all the copy proccess (and will take a good time perhaps) instead of option b which is reading on demand from sd anyway, you can malloc...

    Battery Problem

    does anybody ever tried the (stupid) idea of using NiCd batteries on a gp2x? that shall last like about half a hour if you're lucky haha at least you won't get bothered by memory effect, as the batteries will be very, VERY soon running out of charge.. :lol:

    Battery Life

    All NiCd chargers I've ever saw were capable of charing NiMH, in fact, both NiCd and NiMH 'slow' chargers are pretty much the same circuit, wich is a 2.8V (+/-) current-limited power source, simple as that... the only difference is that NiMH chargers use to allow more current (as NiMH hold more...

    Using Gp2x With Lcd Monitor

    nope. unless you're willing to open your gp2x's case and solder a db15 connector to a bunch of pins, then it could be possible

    GP2X Is Dual-screen Gaming Possible/feasible?

    altough there's X11 for GP2X, I don't think that dual display X server would be much useful for gp2x perhaps one could compile xmms and let it play/control on lcd and eyecandy on the other (wich everybody else would look at or just avoid a plasma screen to get hammered by the same image all...

    I Don´t Now If I Gonna Buy A Gp2x Ore Not!! :s Confused

    I think gp2x is quite lame in playing movies A lot of downloaded movies simply refuses to play Sometimes it's the audio, other times is the video codec, I really thoght that it would play anything that mplayer on linux without windows codecs could be capable of playing... Also it just won't play...

    Usb Cable Mod

    if your hard drive is +5v powered and allows that +5v to escape into USB cable, then you can do it I never had something like this, but it's very likely that this power supply only supply the +12v for the hard drive, and takes +5v from USB signal to be sure, just turn your usb device on and...

    GP2X I Might Start Developing For The Gp2x

    whoa, now I'm feeling so better by only knowing x86 assembly :ph34r: I always felt that x86 was the easiest, perhaps not by complexity's sake, but anyone can assembly, run and debug the code on your own computer, so the tools are easier to go also the 16bit side of x86 is even easier as you...

    So What Do People Usually Do With Their Gp2x?

    Playing DrMD is great, even better because it supports per-game configuration and plays mega drive/genesis AND master system / game gear, and best if I play it on a [big] tv screen Watching movies is great, but really ain't no compatibility at all as I would expect from a mplayer-sourced player...

    Network Over Usb

    On the gp2x side you need only to set ip to the devices and they then should be able to ping each other: ifconfig usb0 192.168.3.10 (pc) ifconfig usb0 192.168.3.5 (gp2x) When you've got tired of pinging, you can log in as root on the pc and set-up a masquerading gateway: echo 1 >...

    Any Speed Improvements With Better Sd Cards?

    I have 2 SanDisk's SD card, 1gb one and 2gb the other the 2gb claims to be faster than the 1gb one, but both behave exactly the same in gp2x file transfers (450kb/s aprox) so if I take a guess, it would be that it doesn't matter wich card you buy altough, neither cards were 150x grade, perhaps...

    Strange Sd Slot Behavior

    Yeah, but I was transfering one file at time And also wasn't using some other usb device that would eat all my bandwidth So it's not the case.... Yeap, but I was using AC adapter, so it would make no difference to me running at 80mhz or 200mhz :] And after upping the clock rate, transfer speed...

    Ac Adapter Specs

    Things are not always the way we wanted it to :rolleyes: What we mean with "regulated" power supply is meaning that it will not rise up to 7Vdc under very easy load conditions (so end up burning any 3.3V/30mA circuit) and also whould not go as low as 2Vdc under nominal maximum load But...

    Usbnet On Linux

    the correct command would be: ifconfig usb0 80.0.0.1 some distributions set ethernet MAC address do usbnet, if so, you should got ethX (X can be 0 if you don't have any NIC on your computer, but should be 1 as most computers have NICs nowadays)

    Strange Sd Slot Behavior

    Hi everyone today I was backing-up all my SD files back to hard disk so I could move it on my new SanDisk Ultra-II 2gb SD card as I don't have a SD card reader (I have on my notebook, but it's slower than to use my gp2x reader) I had to use gp2x's one there were at least 2 curiosities...

    Mame Gpx 2.3 Sources

    unless you want to rebuild it, you've got nothing to do with the source code anyway, I compiled mame for gp2x with paeryn's hardware accellerated and gcc-4.0.2, but I felt no much difference between standard precompiled mame (which I think that's not the accelerated one) and this one, anyway...

    Ac Adapter Specs

    I thought that it was 3.3Vdc/1A, not 3V People who've got the standard gp2x psu are able to see divx movies in tv-out? My power supply deliver 3.6V/1A and still not good enough to score a divx movie into tv-out

    I Want A Gp2x But Concerned...

    Well, what I've tried to say was exactly that =) Play-asia = 10 USD cheaper than Lik-Sang, which is 10 USD cheaper than gp32z and so on... Also they do accept credit card, that's very nice B) mine took almost 3 weeks to get over here.. You're absolutely right! I forgot that NAND-user-space is...

    I Want A Gp2x But Concerned...

    The mess with the NAND memory is that if you start using it thinking it's harmless, sooner or later you gonna delete the wrong file/folder and then your gp2x is busted (not to mention mp3 files within the configuration directory or any other mess a user can and probably WILL do if not advised...

    I Want A Gp2x But Concerned...

    that's right I bought mine from play-asia, since I would have to import it anyway and everything gone ok Lik-sang didn't allowed me to purchase by credit-card, I don't know why, but so I ordered in his neighbour (and also playasia is 10 bucks cheaper)
