I know there is no technical reason preventing a PS2 emulator to be ported to ARM. But the fact is that last time I checked, I could not find any PS2 emulator running on ARM CPUs. Maybe it's just nobody has tried, but the fact is that AFAIK you need an intel CPU to natively run PS2 emulators.

I have been using my Pandora to play Mame4All (mainly Capcom arcades). Also tried without success to configure a Bluetooth headset. About the Pyra, I still do not use it too much, I am waiting until OS support matures a bit.

I miss a PS2 emulator. But I think these are difficult to see on non-intel machines, right?

I have just received my Pyra and was playing with it and found that when I suspend the device, the backlight of both the screen and the keyboard is not shut down and continues wasting battery. Not the most annoying of the bugs, but there it is.

Great, I always missed this game since the first day I got my hands on the Pandora. Unfortunately GLES1 version does not work on my first batch pandora. I have added the PSX TR1 files (had to rename every file uppercase). When using GLES1 version, it loads the menu screen, but starting the game...

I had a pretty similar problem with two boards I was debugging some time ago, that were connected through an SPI bus. The problem happened only on booting: once booted, if the board started, it didn't fail anymore while powered. Sometimes some of the boards that worked at first started failing...

[THROWING MONEY TO THE SCREEN LIKE CRAZY] WHY DON'T YOU ACCEPT MY MONEY!!!

@Exophase: I have just tested The King of Fighters XIII under ArchLinux + Wine, and unfortunately it runs very slow. Even reducing the resolution and configuring the game for static backgrounds, the game runs too slow to be playable. For reference, on a 6 year old desktop I have (Core2 DUO E8400...

No, there's no VM. Just native ArchLinux with Steam running native Linux ports.

With my current install it's difficult to tell how well a "standard" desktop would run, because I have a very minimal install running i3-wm desktop. i3-wm runs light-speed, but it also does on an ancient Pentium IV laptop I have lying around. About games and emulators, I do not intend to use...

What kind of tests are you thinking of? As long as you do not need Windows, I can give them a try (I removed Windows and installed ArchLinux on the machine).

Interesting device. Unfortunately, it isn't for me, because AFAIK Z85XX CPUs are not GNU/Linux friendly. I know it because about a month ago I wanted to buy a 10" tablet with one of these SoCs to use it as a GNU/Linux machine. I started searching Linux forums to see how it runs on these devices...

It's working great now, thanks! Will it be included on next SZ release?

Tested. Unfortunately, it doesn't work (or at least I don't know how to load it).   $ uname -a Linux doragasu-pandora 3.2.69 #1123 Sun Jul 19 00:32:37 EEST 2015 armv7l GNU/Linux $ sudo insmod ch9x00.ko insmod: error inserting 'ch9x00.ko': -1 Invalid module format $ file ch9x00.ko ch9x00.ko: ELF...

Thanks a lot @notaz! I'll try it ASAP!

I gave the CDevTools package a chance to build ch9x00_usb module (for a cheap chinese USB to Ethernet adapter). On my Arch box it is just a matter of calling make and waiting a pair of seconds, but I suppose CDevTools does not install the kernel sources (or any other thing needed) so I get a...

Yeah, got my preorder voucher!!!

Where are the links?????

I always carry a cellphone with better camera than the one we could afford on the Pyra. So not for me, I want the Pyra for gaming and desktop apps that do not use camera. And if eventually I would ever want a photo on the Pyra, I can take it on the phone and share via BT.

Yet another systemd bashing thread? Not again, please!
