Mame Gp2x 1.7 Is Out ! ! ! ! !

Didn't some previous posts say that cramFS was unstable/led to problems?

Sure it is nice to speedup the bootup, but not at a cost of stability!

Isn't "Hexxagon 2" (picture above) a DOS game? How do you get it running on the GP2x (and what script)?

​

It is, just use the DosBox port. Its pretty slow but works even with stuttering SB sounds

Franxis said in another thread that MAME does not write to the NAND, so scratch my theory.

As for the cramFS, yeah it does create odd problems with homebrew. That's why I won't touch it, if at all. But eventually I'm sure they will get things worked out. It's just a new idea someone is working on. Those kinda things take time.

95% of my stuff works on cramFS, only some early programs dont work. All the modern stuff works. (Anything that needed the SDL libs I think, dont take my word for it though)

I know that the authors of Rage2x resolve the problem with his frontend with a static recompilation.
Does Mame staticaly linked?
