Hit Me With Dumb Stick But....

...with the cradle, is it suppose to power teh GP2X as well or do i need another adaptor for that?

 

[Miika]

You need another adaptor... or batteries?

 

[kaygroth]

thanks.

....if whoever designed this cradle reads this.......where you on acid?

To even further complicate things: You can not use the same adapter that the GP2X takes. I think the cradle even takes a center positive rather than center negative adapter.

Check the QWER letters, just push every button in the Test mode in the settings to find out
Backspace is START.

Can you not get the whole of the keyboard to work? I've just bought the GP2X and cradle and not had much luck with it.

I've managed to get the mouse working in Quake for example, but it does nothing in SCUMMVM. The keyboard seems to work in the Linux interface (does nothing in gmenu2x) and I can't get my gamepad to do anything except power up!

There must be something I'm not doing right. I have firmware 3.0 installed, a Raptor K1 keyboard, G5 mouse and a Thrustmaster Dual Firestorm II gamepad. I just go into the settings and switch human USB devices on? Is there something special I have to do to get the mouse working in SCUMMVM?

A keyboard is just a keyboard, it doesn't map to anything else, so it works in the gph menu because they have code in there to check the keyboard for input. gmenu2x probably doesn't check for any keyboard input. Usb devices will only work if the app is coded to use the device, they don't just automatically work in everything.

Right I see. Does it work for Quake and Doom? I can't get the keyboard to do anything at all in either of these. The mouse works for them, after changing some entries in the config files. Do I have to do something similar to get the keyboard to work?

 

[PokeParadox]

Quake should work IIRC, Doom... I think not.

Hmmmm. I wonder what the problem with Quake is then....any pointers?

 

[oqnet]

Question, couldn't you just use like a drill and make a hole to use the gp2x's power? Or modify it some how?
