Beebem For Gp2x 0.6 (bbc Micro Emulator)

[sswam]

I compiled two versions of BeebEm on Pandora, and put them in a PND here:

http://pandoria.org/pnd/beebem.pnd

- The UNIX version, screen update is slow, but it goes fullscreen nicely (with F11).
- The GP2X version, runs smoothly, but appears as a small window on Pandora.

The GP2X version in my PND seems to have some bug with loading disk images (F3) from outside the read-only PND tree!

I'll try to fix that, and learn about the hardware scaler, might be an easy way to make the GP2X version go full screen.

The PND I had uploaded before was truncated and didn't work. It should be fixed now.

The Caanoo is more than fast enough to run BeebEm. I think the GP2X version of BeebEm will run on Caanoo using Ginge. This also works to run GP2X BeebEm on the Pandora. A native port would likely be as simple as just compiling the GP2X version, as the Caanoo has the same resolution. But, I don't have a Caanoo to test it. I could get one I guess, or try to cross-compile blind!

A good native Pandora port would be better, to take advantage of the Pandora's higher resolution, etc. My PND is not much good yet: one build runs too slow, the other in a small window, and there are other issues. But I hope to improve it soon.

I updated the PND, will post more here: http://boards.openpandora.org/index.php?/topic/1094-bbc-emulation-merged-thread/

Thanks to the GP2X porters and authors for making it possible to emulate Beeb on Pandora you guys rock.
