Go here, download the file. it's a user guide put together by GuyFalkes. The same web site (here) has everything included on said CD and updated versions as well as games, emu's etc not released when CD was. Also it's a good idea to read through a lot of the posts here to get an idea of what...

Had it, ditched it. It was only quasi linux. Required the DVD to boot. Required a sync on green SVGA monitor and really expensive adpater cable to make text readable. Actually installed nastily, and I'll stress that. When you installed it you had to watch a clock for a certain amount of seconds...

Other option to try Open Device manager (before plugging GP2X in) and disable 'enhanced serial Bus Controller' Close Device Manager and Plug GP2X in. Some systems will now detect GP2X as gadget device now. Hope it works for you :)

Ordered mine September 22nd, received it December 14th. Seven days sounds a little trivial :D

Just downloaded the U-Boot code from that link (to make sure what I was saying was true). In the archive, in \u-boot\tools\logos\ is one file 'denx.bmp'. If this was the code the retail units were compiled with it would have a bitmap of the grey boot screen. You know, the one before the ugly...

We need them because we have not yet received the U-Boot source code, just the code used for the dev kits. Again, we only have HALF the required source code. The U-Boot code is MUCH more important than the kernel code. Whatever has been modified is kind of irrelevant at this point. The most...

Works for me, firmware 1.2.0, try downloading from archive again, has source and makefile. :)

A soft keyboard linked to gpm, so things like vi will be usable without a serial cable . . .

Found this somewhere, where I don't really know :) 1. Ratio of an igloo's circumference to its diameter = Eskimo Pi 2. 2000 pounds of Chinese soup = Won ton 3. 1 millionth of a mouthwash = 1 microscope 4. Time between slipping on a peel and smacking the pavement = 1 bananosecond 5. Weight...

Sorry, just got around to reading this. Usually the black screen is a sign of missing or invalid library, compile with linker option '--static'. From menu -'Tools' - 'Compiler Options' - 'Compiler' tab - put a checkmark in the line 'Add these commands to the linker command line' - type...

Are the SDL libs the same as what is on the GP2X? If not, you have to compile with --static option for the linker. AFAIK, devkitpro uses GCC 4.02, which would mean a different version of SDL as well... If some one knows differently, please post :) I had this same problem myself, added...

Actually it's not 'uboot', it's 'U-Boot' (two completely different bootloaders). Uboot is no longer being maintained, while U-Boot is still under production and development at www.denx.de That website is an excellent source of info on how the boot process, and firmware upgrade processes work...

Also ABC Amber Lit Converter at This site, does batch conversions.

I think GPH are more suited to management than production or development. Their hardware was designed for them from ARM, Magiceyes, DiginSys etc. Their software was provided by the linux community, tweaked by MagicEyes and DiginSys, and Beta testing by ourselves. The hardware was assembled by...

Ran the firmware and patch successfully, even had a custom theme. No hitches. Sandisk 1GB SD card.

Had a difficult time finding an appropriate power supply in Canada (remote rural area). Ended up with an MW regulated 1700ma. I could not find one with 3.3 volts, though, just 3 volts then 4.5 volts. Works good at 3V, haven't tried 4.5V, yet as Squidge said Reesy did. However, that brings me to...

Actually the need to add file extensions ( .gpu & .gpe) is only necessary for GPH's menu program, we could drop that and go back to linux permissions from file attributes. Also, gpm (the mouse driver) seems to be running. Does anybody know if GPH used that for input in gp2xmenu? If it is, we...

It could even be something console based like Midnight Commander, easy on resources and the eye . . . :)

Actually there are several files which are written to NAND on every boot (dmesg etc) as well as least one 'tracking' file for EbookViewer, bookmark.dat which is written to NAND constantly. We all know nothing lasts forever, but GPH just keeps amazing me with the silly things they've done with...
