    Robbers!

    Exactly. That burns. In my case, they took my jacket, with the GP2x in the pocket - so had no clue what they'd nicked until later. I get really upset when I think about it. And yet. I was at this greasy spoon in Finsbury Park this weekend, having one of them heart-stopping all day breakfasts...

    Robbers!

    *sigh* :( Haven't been on these boards for a while. This is because I've spent the last five weeks moping outside the Cannon Street Lost Property office, in the vain hope that my GP2x would reappear. My unit was "informally redistributed" from the coat rack over my head as I slept on the train...

    Hacked Again...

    I write this from home on my Ubuntu Linux system, using Firefox. Well, thanks to this virus thingy I got nailed at work today. Hooray! Technically I am supposed to be doing this shitty capture thing where you type out forms into a database. But obviously I am checking gmail and reading digg...

    Netplay A Possibility?

    I suppose that in theory it is possible. The GP2x does have usb port, and you can get USB dongles for network connectivity and/or Bluetooth. You'd need the sourcecode for the driver for the USB networking device so you could compile it for the GP2x, and write some scripts to load said device...

    Is This Ebay Item Worth Buying?

    If you're willing to pay £5 + postage and wait two days for stuff you can legally download for free right now, all so you don't have to unzip them yourself, then by all means. I figure the guy's profit on this is about £4.90 after the blank CD, assuming he got them on a spindle. My advice...

    Replacement Graphics For Ladykiller

    Errrr yes they are, if only because they objectify women. This has been a problem ever since it became illegal to own women as property. Personally I'm more concerned with the amount of violence we expose our children to, not the amount of sex. It's always amused me that the biggest public...

    Divx + Subtitles

    The only weirdness I have noticed is that if a line of subtitle in the SRT is too long, it will wrap to a new line on screen - which is fine, but it does it in the middle of a word, which can be a little confusing if the dialogue is moving fast. Otherwise, it works pretty good. I have no...

    Uk Members Help Me

    I second the Wanadoo option. I routinely overshoot my cap, but they've been quite decent about it as I don't go too far over. The best, and naughtiest option ... no, wait. Understand, this is wrong. You should Not Do what I am about to suggest. I am simply saying that I have heard that people...

    Do You Horde Roms?

    I have more roms then I will ever play. I am a total hoarder. Which is odd because there are only a handful that I ever play regularly. This is probably because a lot of games were derivative, or complete clones of other games. I mean, Contra had it waxed - to me it is the ultimate platform...

    No Usb Connection After 1.4.0 Upgrade

    Thanks for the tip - that's a good suggestion. It's also annoying that this is even necessary. Card readers can be had for about £5 on ebay. It's really the way to go, particularly when you consider that a gig of video will take about 16 minutes at USB1.1 speed. Or wait and see if it's fixed...

    Does 1.4 Have A Reliable Usb Connection???

    No idea. I can confirm my experience that using the 1.4 firmware killed my USB. I just never really thought about it because I rely on my SD card anyway. I suppose you could try downgrading your firmware, if you don't mind dodgy video. Otherwise, it is alleged that a new firmware will debut at...

    Menu Launchery Thingy

    Thanks for the feedback. It's a step in the right direction, but not what I imagined when I wrote the above post. Granted, I was wasted at the time. I'm looking at implementing my idea myself, 'cos I am teh l33t h4xx0r (no, not actually). However, I'm a bit stumped because I bought my GP2X...

    Menu Launchery Thingy

    This is something I'd do myself in a heartbeat had I any coding skills beyond Java. Okay, something that gets a little old on the GP2x is selecting, say, Games, being presented with the filesystem, and having to stroll through it while you work out where you put stuff, or think about what you...

    Gp2x Tracker 0.1.0 Released

    Critical First of all, thanks for working on this. I know it's just a taster, but it hints at great things to come. I imagine it must also be quite rewarding to work on something so creative. I gave it a test run, it's delightful. I was an alpha tester on a tracker project in the early 90s...

    Loading Skins In Cramfs?

    Cramfs makes the NAND memory of the gp2x read-only, for a very good reason: the less you write to it, the longer it lasts. This does mean that you can't install skins into it. Before you moan about this, consider the benefit that cramfs provides. Reallyfastboottime versus...

    Tv Cable

    I tend to agree with the SCART theory. I always have this problem when connecting devices to my telly. For some reason most tellys are a bit pants at detecting whether the incoming signal is SVideo or normal RCA video in. Here's what to do to fix this. Plug in your tv cable, turn on your GP2x...

    Duke3d Version 3 Black Screen

    I got stuck here too. Apparently you can only use the A button to select stuff off the menu, or it hangs on a background image. Try using the A button. You'll be glad you did.
