I've just got my sd card reader so I've been able to have a test of the console. I've tried quake, which works fine. But every divx I've tried so far has working sound but only displays some kind of pink & green interference on the screen (which doesnt move). Anyone else had this problem?
 
I've got this problem right now - in my case it was caused by updating the menu & programs without also updating the firmware. Get the fimware update from gp2x.com (downloads) and see if you can get yours to flash - you should only need to worry about gp2xboot.img and gp2xkernel.img. I'm one of the unlucky ones who can't get theirs to update for love nor money :( hope you have more success

Think I might have done the same thing. I put all of the folders in the 100-101 archive on the root of my SD Card to start with. After I ran the util, my version number states 1.0.1. Now if I just put the two img files on my SD card they just get deleted.

nonono! You run NO utility to flash the firmware. You let it auto run. Now you've screwed up your system. You only run the utility if your already running 1.0.1 firmware (means that it auto detected and firmwared upgraded when you booted up). Your movie player=fkd up!
 
there'll be a fix at somepoint, especially with the source released so someone will be able to do a runtime fix (so you don't have to worry about the .img files)
 
I just went and bought a 128mb sandisk sd card and updated with that as my integral 1 gig didn't seem to like the firmware update.
