    New Mk Wish List?

    Switching to a coiled spring style battery compartment would alleviate the problems of bending contacts.

    Network Two Gp2xs Via Usb Link Cable?

    You can't use USB host with the USB2 port, so it will be limited to USB1.1 speeds.

    GP2X Detecting Vbr In An Mp3

    There is _usually_ a tag at the beginning (probably the xing thing you found), but it's never guaranteed to be there. The only foolproof way to find if something is VBR (and to find the song length) is by scanning every frame. If you want a reasonable way that will catch almost all of these...

    Some News Of Things To Come...

    I've followed this whole thread, and at the most basic level, the discussion's been pretty civil for an internet forum. A few heated moments, but it's par for the course. But, realize it is an internet forum, and you can't as easily read the tone of someone's post - even if something sounds...

    Where Can I Get A Power Supply?

    If all else fails, you could get a cheap 30W inverter, and it'd also be useful for charging cell phones, etc...

    Network Two Gp2xs Via Usb Link Cable?

    You could do a more-than-2-player setup by having one gp2x be the host on the hub (break out board most likely), and connect to every other gp2x via hub ports to the USB2 client port in networking mode on the units, and then have the host gp2x do bridging to allow the others to communicate with...

    I Want To Play Final Fantasy

    Just look around in the archive and find which emulator you like the best - it's pretty easy to throw a few on and try them in one shot. Personally I think FF1 is one of the best games I've played, maybe just because it was a bit ahead of its time, but it is a solid game with good replay value...

    GP2X Open2x Libs: Commercial Games And Licenses

    Another option always available is contacting the copyright owners and requesting a dual licensing. I would imagine a lot of projects would be receptive to the idea if it's for a good purpose.

    GP2X Hello Everybody!!!

    1.) For computational tasks where you could cleanly interface with a 2nd thread, it's not incredibly difficult to use the 2nd processor, but there's two limitations: The code and data used by it should reside in the upper 32MB of memory that's not managed by linux (but can still be accessed...

    Autorunning

    Link nohup.out to /dev/null? At least if the file isn't functionally required. Otherwise link it to something in a tmpfs filesystem.

    Always Wanted To Play Super Mario Rpg On A Handheld

    Super FX emulation might even require a dynamic/static recompiler to run at a decent speed on the GP2X, but I think it's still within the range of possibility (keep in mind that many 3d games at least on the SNES didn't update frames at the full rate - maybe frameskip 2 or 3 on many, so an...

    GP2X Open2x Libs: Commercial Games And Licenses

    Yeah, I should have specified it's only OK to do object file only distribution for LGPL licensed code. If you link with plain GPL code, the whole thing must be GPL I believe.

    Gba

    It's true - even if one project may not seem to have as much potential for improvement, the fact is they're totally separate approaches, and say this project makes heavy graphics engine optimizations - these improvements could still be incorporated into a dynamic recompiler type emulator for...

    GP2X Got The Conexant Cx25874 Chip To Work

    That is a truly impressive list of features and support. Hats off to that shit :)

    GP2X Open2x Libs: Commercial Games And Licenses

    Seconded... if it's not an open source component, just include the object to allow relinking, and all is right in the universe.

    Pseudo-bricked Gp2x

    If all else fails, send it to someone that can flash it via JTAG or buy a breakout board and do it yourself.

    Battery Life

    I've never heard of the brand, Assia. I'd be a little wary of buying these until someone tests them and confirms the capacity/performance, preferably with a charger that can measure it. Someone should send some samples to the candlepower forum guys.

    Overclocking.

    Both situations can occur - some programs have built in over/underclocking functions, and there's also a utility that I forget the name of offhand, but it's mentioned on the forums a LOT. It can also tweak some other settings, I think LCD and memory timings. It should be in the file archive...

    Qtopia - Add New Programs

    Maybe it's based on an older version of cramfs, and it doesn't work right with newer cramfs filesystem drivers? I'd try googling around for cramfs and see if you can find more compatability info. Also, you could always extract the files on the gp2x itself, since you know it has a working...

    Gba

    I propose a witty code name versioning scheme, like some linux distributions are fond of :P Yeah, on second thought, how about not.
