gPSP won't load.

[TheoneRetrogamer]

When I runt it it says "Mounting the PND failed. The application won't start. Please have a look at /tmp/pndrun_gpsp.out". PLEASE HELP!

Is it the latest version from:

http://repo.openpandora.org/?page=detail&app=package.gpsp.notaz

?

If it's never worked, first thing to try would be redownloading it in case the one you have is corrupt.

If that doesn't change things, and you have a working GBA Bios file correctly placed in gPsp's appdata folder, it might help someone more technical if you open your /tmp/pndrun_gpsp.out file it's creating, copy the text and post it here (between spoiler tags is best).
