how do i know that a rom is for gp2x?

if i have mame
do i just download a normal rom or just some other 'suitable' rom
 
As Purple Goat said get clrmame it checks your roms against a DAT file taylored for a specific emulator and if your rom matches your good :)

grab clrmame from http://www.clrmame.com/ and the DAT file you need is included within the mamegp2x zip archive.

as for if your roms are wrong you either need to redump them from your original arcade machines ;) or do some intelligent googling as im sure others might have what your after :)

I fear if i say anymore ill get banned so google away :)
 
Whether you are using an emulator on your computer or on the GP2X, the roms are the same. All you need is the correct GP2X emulator to load them.

The best way to see if a rom works is just to load it to your SD and test it.
