I've mirrored a few things that may be of interest to people who want to develop for the GP2X.

It's easier than trying to grab them from various korean sites ;)

Have a look at: http://www.fear.me.uk/gp2x/
 
It looks like the system will use the following libraries too:
SDL-1.2.7
libid3tag-0.15.1b
libmad-0.15.1b
libpng-1.2.8
libtermcap-2.0.8
libungif-4.1.0
libunicodefont-1.0
ncurses-5.2
popt-1.6.4
zlib-1.1.3
Tremor-1.0.2

I wonder if we'll be able to make use of all of these, or if some of them are purely for internal use.
 
Wow, they're being really conservative with their choice of software (for example, the latest version of SDL is 1.2.9, and while that's pretty new, 1.2.8 has been out for a while). I also read somewhere that the kernel they're using is from the 2.4 series, while 2.6 (which has a lot of optimizations for embedded devices like the GP2x) has also been out for a while. I hope they make it easy for people to upgrade their systems; SDL should be easy, cos it's just a library, but the kernel may be trickier, depending a lot on MagicEyes (binary-only device drivers provided by MagicEyes for a 2.4 kernel may or may not be compatible with a 2.6 kernel)

Did you manage to get arm-tools.tar.gz?

Thanks,

Yup, but it was about 80MB so I've been reluctant to put it up, theres a limit to how much of a hammering the server can take ;)

Its also a lot less interesting than the other files.

If you really want it, let me know.

Managed to get it from the GP32 spain mirror.

Many thanks though.
