    Viva Amiga Documentary

    Hi all, There's currently an interesting documentary being put together on the Commodore Amiga and its impact called 'Viva Amiga'. You can see a trailer for it here: Here's an extract: In my opinion, the Amiga computer is fondly remembered by those that used it, but there's not enough...

    Flash Plugin For Cortex A8

    @fettouhi Hardware acceleration or no, performance (at least for YouTube) is fine. As meandu229 says, Flash support is in the browser, not through using a standalone player. Yes, Nokia paid for their Flash player, but you'd expect Adobe to want to help TI with their port, and Adobe could use...

    Flash Plugin For Cortex A8

    I find it odd that the state of the port is only at demo level. My Nokia N900 has a Cortex-A8 and runs Flash just fine. Maemo is Linux based too, so it's not like it's a port to a brand new OS. Don't know what else to say. Perhaps someone can explain.

    Any Game Can Now Be Emulated!

    Sounds like you want to do this properly rather than just going for the easiest solution (which would be VNC). First thing to do would be sort out the control over WiFi issue. For control over WiFi, worth looking into socket programming. Here's a introduction...

    Are you hoping to release it commercially?

    Any Game Can Now Be Emulated!

    VLC is a good choice for streaming video. What you want to do is set up an FFmpeg daemon to encode the stream, serving this via an FFserver daemon. VLC (MPlayer would probably work too) picks up on the stream to display it. For controls you could just set up your Pandora as a Bluetooth...

    Any Game Can Now Be Emulated!

    You're welcome. That video wasn't actually quite what I thought it was. But I did find the command you'll need to run to install VNC via the Pandora package manager, assuming you have a Pandora already. The command is: opkg install angstrom-x11vnc-xinit . What that should do is install a VNC...

    What about the WiFi on the PSP? According to this page it's only 802.11b: http://playstation.about.com/od/psp/a/PSPSpecs.htm

    Ok I Tried The Whole Separate Appdata Dir Thing

    I strongly dislike packages/package managers too, I don't care if they make things easy, I want to know what files are being put where and why. I really hope GoboLinux takes off, but otherwise I've given up on Linux offering an understandable file system layout. BSD distros are better in this...

    Ok I Tried The Whole Separate Appdata Dir Thing

    The only extra work I'm proposing for the app dev is to add a couple of extra lines (for default settings) into the PXML file. Hardly a huge issue is it. Perhaps confusing was the wrong word, sorry. I agree with what you said before about appdata moved around with the app being a personal...

    Ok I Tried The Whole Separate Appdata Dir Thing

    I agree, it should be handled by a per application basis, it's just I'm saying versions of apps differ between each other too. Adding extra work? Not that much really, especially not for app devs, and the OS stuff only has to be sorted once. What work do you think it'll entail for those...

    Ok I Tried The Whole Separate Appdata Dir Thing

    If the OS doesn't need to babysit the appdata folders then why was this topic regarding confusing config structure brought up? Just to say, I don't really have a problem with it, I'm just thinking out loud for those that do. Don't have a Pandora to test on. Would you send me a Pandora to...

    Ok I Tried The Whole Separate Appdata Dir Thing

    You've missed the point. If you change the default appdata folder in the pxml.xml file you are only getting the option of a default config file. If you do it in the way I've laid out you have the option of importing settings from older versions, which means less work to get a new version running...

    Ok I Tried The Whole Separate Appdata Dir Thing

    I can definitely foresee people wanting multiple versions of emulators on their machines. For example, it is well known that earlier MAME versions are faster at running certain games than later versions (as the goal of the MAME project is to get as close to the original hardware as possible, and...
