Zaurus - pdaXrom / Emulation & pdaxrom

« on: August 16, 2004, 05:35:38 pm »

Be careful I know that the X11 version of snes9X doesn't work like that !!!!

Yes it does !!!

Thanks for the trick!

Now another pb (yes, i know, i'm a boring boy...   )
Is there a way to save somewhere else than in default save directory (~/.snes96_snapshots)?

My z is nearly full so if i keep on saving 2 times (+/- 1mo) for each one of my games, i might be in troubles...

This wm looks great! I would really like to test it, so i will!!!!!

Question : what are the dependences ? Only libstroke and imlib are available at pdaxrom.org but more are present on your web site, are all of your ipks related to fvwm ?

man, snes9x ROCKS!!!!!

It runs perfectly right  , but there are some minor troubles you might help me to solve...

* killing X server (Ctrl+Alt+Back)
* export SDL_NOMOUSE=1
* ./snes9x *.smc

Tested with french version of Chrono Trigger, and it works perfectly but i have a big cursor on the top left of the screen...

Plus i'm fed up with typing "export SDL_NOMOUSE=1"... I'm sure i could use a script to automatize this but i don't know how to create a script and i leave tommorrow for hollidays so i have no time to search right now... Can someone help me with this : a script that makes

export SDL_NOMOUSE=1
./snes9x *.smc

in one shot.

I'm sure it is really simple, but that is not the kind of things i know.....

Still on VisualBoyAdvance...

* killing X server (Ctrl+Alt+Back)
* export SDL_NOMOUSE=1
* ./VisualBoyAdvance -F --auto-frameskip *.gba

==> Makes it run 46% of normal speed... Not that bad, but still not good  

Anyone knows how to disable turn off sound from command line ? Or is there anyone with a VisualBoyAdvance.cfg file ? I only use a vba.ini either under win or under nux. Do you know what version of vba use such a config file ?

thanks reaper!

I have had little time to test this but i have just tried VisualBoyAdvance (tha best gba emulator ever!!!!) but it runs only 35% of normal speed on japaneese F-Zero (it was the first available rom so i know that compatibility is perfect).

I still haven't tried to desactivate the sound, but i guess this won't make it run faster than 50%.

I'll post every other tests here, but i'm  not a linux guru, so any help is welcome!

See you.

Hi everyone !

I love using emulators on my pc. It allows me to play the games i had when i was a kid, that is wonderful. I know that zaurii are able to emulate quite a lot of consoles, but i can't find amulators made for pdaxrom.

I tried an ipk version of VisualBoyAdvance SDL some monthes ago, but it was way too slow and i didn't try anything else since then cause i can't find any ipk for xrom on the web, and i think i can't use those desingned for QT (can i ).

What can i do ? I am not a programmer so i don't feel like able to cross compile emulators... Plus i am sure there is another way but i do'nt know wich one... Can someone tell me where to find what i am looking for ?

Thanks.

Zaurus - pdaXrom / New pdaXrom installer (to have just Root partition)

« on: July 27, 2004, 07:21:14 am »

ok, sorry, i'm just stuuuuuuuuuuuupid...

nothing had to be done in the japanese menu except the normal procedure for reflashing...

The all updating and repartitioning thing comes in english with the rom installation procedure, so it is really not big a deal.

Ashley : your tool is WONDERFUL !!!!!!!!!! No install pb, no disfunctioning, no bug... i have a C750 and i flashed pdaxrom 1.0.5 that has now 58 368 ko to run... Thank you !!!!!

Ok, guys, i need your help...

I have messed up my c750 so i have to reflash it, and i will soon leave home for my hollidays, so i'm not sure i'll be able to wait until next pdaxrom release... Yet i want to use this wonderfull one partition script but i am not sure about this step :

If you have a 750 you should also update maintenance kernel. Reboot in maintenance mode.

Can someone help me ? I would really need a step by step help as i don't understand anything to the japanese menu...  

Thanks in advance.

User Request for Applications / a new word processing tool, please...

« on: July 11, 2004, 05:32:52 pm »

Fed up wih hancom (Ham.com) word ! It deleted many of my works every time i had to hard reboot even if my docs were on CF ! No spellchecker, no way to read the .doc docs i, openoffice.org and very basic text enlightment !!! So i moved to pdaxrom and abiword, the most powerful word processing availiable for zaurii...

But cacko qt rom is less power eating than pdaxrom, so i could take more notes with qt... if it had a real power processing tool...

Can one of those be compiled for QT, pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease???
