2xrick Giving Me A Black Screen

[Alex.]

Hey everyone,

Yesterday I downloaded a bunch of new homebrew, and the recently updated 2xRick gives me a black screen when launched from either Gmenu2x or the stock game launcher. I'm using firmware 2.1.1 and extracted the folder with its tree intact. Did anyone else have this problem?

u could try running it from telnet and see if it gives any error messages. I just downloaded it to test it and i played it over a windows share on the gp2x. It didn't crash with me but it does have some weird controls.

U could check one thing though see if the .gpe file has the executeable flag set if not set it

Sounds like the old allegro blitter bug?
Search for "black screen allegro" for info if it is.

Well the allegro blitter problem goes away after using the blitter... So I ran some software before running 2xRick, but no dice... Maybe the .rar extraction got corrupted somehow, I'll re-paste it to the card again this evening and see if it makes a difference.
