Probably better to use waitpid than just wait.. if you use plain wait then check the return to make sure that the process that just signalled is the same one that you executed, otherwise your execute routine can potentially finish early.

No it isn't. It's called a Loss Leader and is not only legal it's very common. Predatory pricing - Selling at an artificially low price with the intent of driving a competitor out of the market is illegal. Maybe you were thinking of that? Sony aren't even close to being accused of that...

If I didn't care I wouldn't post! :) Like I said I was initially in favour. It's just the details put me off. There's nothing special about pretty much any package format I've ever used (except perhaps .msi, but then microsoft often tend to over-engineer stuff). That's not the point. gp2x...

I never said you were, but the same comments apply to RPM, etc. Package managers do two things - interdependency and handling updates. Only the second is required for the gp2x and you don't need new (or old) a package format for that. Create zip files and rename them to .gp2 if you like, but...

.. my post duplicated itself :blink: No it didn't.. it just unduplicated and kept the modified one :blink: :blink: What I *was* going to say was I'm looking at an HDDVD drive for the 360, but waiting to see if they region code it.. if it's region coded they can forget it.

That routine does nothing except waste some memory. Current is a temporary local variable. I presume you want current to be returned from the routine... in which case you need to define current as void addshot(node*& current,int x , int y) and do the same as before. btw. since you're...

I found it extremely unstable - it would greenscreen if an application locked up and you had to use the power switch to reboot, forcing you to keep reflashing to resurrect your dead gp2x. Went back to 2.0.0 as it's 100% stable.

You don't need it though. the apt/dpkg combination is absolutely unbeatable, for full blown linux but complete overkill for a gp2x. gp2x packages simply don't have dependencies, so you don't need dependency resolution. A .zip would work just as well - and in fact *is* working just as well...

Hmm.. isn't dpkg a bit unwieldy for a little system like the gp32? ipkg is much simpler and has fewer dependencies (and should compile out of the box since it runs on just about anything). You've got the whole startup script mess to deal with.. dpkg is hard enough to handle on a debian box..

The wiki mentions a lot of changes between 0.38 and 0.391 and probably one of those broke it... I'm sure squidge is working on it..

terranigma runs a treat w/sound on snesgp2x.. you do need to overclock slightly (235 is enough.. 250 is perfect). It's my wife's favourite game at the moment :)

If you're stuck on the green screen the only way back I found was to reflash back to 2.0.0 (which contains all the files needed.. 2.1.1 (and I think 2.1.0) is just a patch). 2.1.1 seemed to do this reliably to me... all it took was an app crashing (eg. mame 3.3 when you exit) and that would be...

It's UDP, which requires ports open both ways or a smart firewall (most firewalls are smart enough, but not all). Your uni connection may not even be letting the connection out let along handling the replies.. it's not uncommon for such networks to allow port HTTP out and very little else. You...

That's valid... 'a' is an expansion of the second argument to the macro. The problem is MMU_WRITE I think. CMDW(MINIMAL_MMU_W7104, MMU_WRITE("c7,c10,4",arg)); expands to: CMDW(0x116, { arg = arg; asm volatile( \ "stmdb sp!, {r0}\n\t" \ "mov r0, %0\n\t" \ "mcr p15, 0, r0, "...

Is there a changelog for it? Waiting for support for lots of games... (edit) nvm.. Thought you were talking about a new version :(

Yeah it grows on you.. It'll take a while to get the right balance of 'good stuff' in 2gb but I'm getting there. Lots of Mame, DrMDx (Sonic never gets old!). Not tried picodrive yet. TV was a bit mixed for me - doesn't work correctly in some apps and the scaling is off (drops the bottom of...

I tried playing with the CPU bias but putting it at the lowest setting just causes guru meditations on a lot of the games.. which is a bit better than locking up totally I suppose but still not exactly 'working' :P As far as gpfce goes.. using absolute paths like that is really lame - that's...

A couple of questions I haven't managed to work out yet: 1. When the sound is coming out of the TV you also get sound out of the gp2x, which is annoying. Putting a plug in the headphones mutes the TV as well! There must be a way around this but I can't find it. 2. Can't get gpfce to work...

Just tried this on the TV... Not for epileptics!! You get the gp2xhandy screen squished into the top half of the screen, and the bottom half is a flashing mess of junk. I guess programming for the TV needs to be done specially....

I had this happen about 6 times this afternoon.. simply having an application crash seems to cause it. Flash back to 2.0.0, then back to 2.1.0/2.1.1 - that gets it back. I've stuck at 2.0.0 because I don't trust 2.1 any more.
