Sterm v0.2 (GP2x Application)
Miyu has updated Sterm for the GP2x. It is a terminal emulation program with virtual keyboard input.Original Author: jochang. I've just recompiled and changed it a bit.Relevant changes to 0.1:Cause the 1.2.0 firmware comes with a incompatible (to sterm 0.1) version of the SDL libs and I hate installing libs for such an essential program like a terminal anyway, I linked the binary staticly. This results in about 700kb extra size, but when you bricked and reinstalled your GP2X several times like I have, you`ll agree it is worth the pain.Furthermore, the X Button now is equal to the SPACE key. One of the most forgotten mappings in 0.1http://www.gp2x.de/cgi-bin/cfiles.cgi?0,0,0,0,8,1147 Read more

Outcast v003 (Atari ST emu for GP2x)
Skeezix has updated his Atari ST emulator Outcast to version 003. New in this version:NEW: Virtual keyboard -- needed for entering text or function keys etc of course, but also to get into a lot of games; the crack groups often put loader demos, or multiple games on a disk, and so you sometimes need to hit spacebar, or a number, of function key. Of course, some games require keyboard controls, too.NEW: Input modes a little more definedFIX: YM chipmusic is pretty good now, though sample playback is still asshat; I'll work on that more. Always running out of time ;)NOTE: Most of the START runtime menu should work fine now; CPU Mhz setting isn't yet available, but throttle and frameskip and disk management and savestates and control modes should all be working!CHG: Welcome screen texthttp://www.gp32x.com/board/index.php?showtopic=24511 Read more

GamePark Holding needs a GPL lesson (GP2x misc)
Bjimba posted an interesting article about GamePark Holdings and their attitude to release the Linux kernel source of the GP2x.First impressions: I love this little unit. Runs a Linux 2.4 kernel, plays movies with mplayer, already has MAME ported to it... Really, it has everything in a handheld game/media machine that a hacker-in-the-old-meaning could want.Except for one thing. The kernel source code.http://bjimba.blogspot.com/2006/01/gp2x-needs-gpl-lesson.html Read more
