Graphics library for gp2x. Includes 2D, 3D, Text, Time, Joystick, and Sound (ogg) functions. Includes working example code, and .gpe files. Now Included a Win32 port to test your programs before compiling for GP2X. Win32 tester version includes 2D, 3D, Text, and Joystick functions. Now supports textures upto 128×128 bitmaps.
Termula2x is a UNIX terminal emulator for GP2X, including vi text editor. It supports background images.
Changes:
* added hide/show virtual keyboard option – to show virtual keyboard set vkeyboard=true or set vkeyboard=false to hide it.
Ruckage designed a cardboard arcade cabinet that is a stand for the GP2x.
Seleuco and Metalbrain updated their Spectrum emulator GP2xpectrum.
Changes:
What’s new:
the big stuff added by Seleuco:
– Full tzx support. New tape code for tap and tzx formats.
– Added Tape sound emulation.
– “fast loading” option to disable speed emulation, tape sound, and contended mode while the game is loaded.
– “flash loading” option to flashload tape blocks when possible.
– “edge loading” option to accelerate game loaders dynamically.
– “Tape Auto Play/Stop” option to play/stop the tape automatically. Best for multilevel games.
– A yellow play label is shown on the screen while the tape is playing; if the label is green, the emulator has detected a loader
and is applying the “edge loader” algorithm.
– Auto “full screen off-on” when the tape is playing.
– Added a Tape browser to view/select tape blocks, play/stop the tape manually and to change the tape without resetting the speccy.
– Added the possibility to select the file to load from a zip file.
– Resized the program selection screen to allow longer file names and view the file extensions.
my humble contribution (Metalbrain):
– Added reset for +2A mode.
– Fixed a bug when loading .z80 files saved in +2A/+3 mode (the ROM wasn’t properly selected).
– To improve performance, the battery won’t get polled on F100 models when battery icon is inactive, and it gets polled less frequently when active.
– Replaced the text “ROM LIST” with “PROGRAM LIST”, and “+3 disc” with “+3 disk”.
– Updated documentation.
and the finishing touch by headoverheels:
– Compiled with profiling option.
Ozgur Hanoi is a simple Towers of Hanoi game project aimed to produce know-how about coding games for GP2X using SDL.
headoverheels has updated PocketSNES for GP2x.
One More Music Player Client is a fairly full featured client for the Music Player Daemon. This is a standalone music player solution and not just a frontend for mpd on another machine.

A small firmware which boots off a FAT32-formatted SD card and totally blanks the kernel, filesystem and user portions of the NAND fixing ‘bad block syndrome’ often caused by 3.0->2.0 downgrades (though it can happen simply by writing to the NAND often enough).
It leaves the bootloader in tact.
Hooka himself gave me a hint of one of his latest interviews. This time Hooka catched up Ruckage, who wrote a bunch of marvellous GP32 and GP2x Fenix games.
The first few lines of the interview:
Hooka: Who are you and what are you about?
Ruckage: I’m a 32 year old GP2X fan living in the UK with an addiction to making games.Hooka: When did you attain a GP2X?
Ruckage: 14/11/06.Hooka: What was you’re main reason for getting one?
Ruckage: Emulation originally, and the hope that I might be able to make a few games.Hooka: You mentioned you used to use DIV, how hard was it for you to learn fenix having that prior experience?
