Mooney has let us know, that sgtair has updated his WiFi Library for the Nintendo DS. The release notes for this release:
Ok, an update for those of you who were stuck on ASSOCSTATUS_ASSOCIATING for the longest time… (version 0.2a [wifi_lib_test.nds]) Firstly, the new build spoofs it’s rate set (pretends to support things it can’t) in order to properly associate to APs that don’t have a low enough base rate set. Also, there have been a few other bugfixes (fixed a crash bug, on ARP timeout) What this means for you? People stuck on ASSOCSTATUS_ASSOCIATING will probably be able to connect now!, and in the case you can’t associate, it’ll tell you much sooner. Also, a note (this wasn’t gone over before) – WEP does not work in this version (also, wep has nothing to do with association, so you’ll be able to associate, just not do anything) – I’m working on it and trying to figure out what’s wrong though… More to come, whenever.

It has most of the standard drawing tools you’d expect from this kind of program. See the readme for a full list of what it can do.http://www.gp32x.com/board/index.php?showtopic=23077

Image provided by: GuyfawkesGuyfakes has released a GP2x port of his own game PSP game”Higher Or Lower”. Here is what he said:
I have released my first homebrew game for the GP2X. Its a quick port of a game I wrote in a few hours on the PSP. I wanted to port this to the GP2X as its quick to port and I wanted to get used to using SDL. This game is slightly changed for use on the GP2X, there are less cards on screen (10 instead of 16) and the on screen guide is not shown on the GP2X. Other than that its the same game. I might port a few of my other games to the GP2X in the near future, maybe Bunny Traps and/or Memory.
