To be honest.. I'm lazy. All C64 games play perfectly, with Vice 2.1 and sound emulation set to fastSid if I set the overclock to 650. I can jump straight in and select a game without having to increase the settings in Vice.

After I looked at the x64.gpe with Notepad++ and reading the standard vice manual on command line options - I couldn't find a way of setting the overclock value to a specific ammount. I've heard about the Pollux_Set - would I be able to use this to change the cpu freq?

I am not that familiar with the Linux / Wiz way of making a batch file (as I assume the x64.gpe is) could someone please explain the functions of these lines:

#!/bin/sh

mount /mnt/sd -o remount,sync


should I run the pollux_set here?

./x64 -directory data/c64:data/drives -sidengine 0 -refresh 1 +truedrive I know that this is where x64 is run with it's command line parameters

is there a puase here, or is this the place to run pollux?

mount /mnt/sd -o remount,async

cd /usr/gp2x/

exec /usr/gp2x/gp2xmenu

Cheers,
 
Think I've sorted it like tihs:

#!/bin/sh

mount /mnt/sd -o remount,sync

./pollux_set 'cpuclk=700'

./x64 -directory data/c64:data/drives -sidengine 0 -refresh 1 +truedrive

./pollux_set 'cpuclk=533'

mount /mnt/sd -o remount,async

cd /usr/gp2x/
exec /usr/gp2x/gp2xmenu
