The icon didn't work.
You must run it with:

/usr/games/pcsx

Well that was unexpected!

Nice to know this will have joystick support though :)

Aw crap!
This is a content theft "protection" of my blogs.
There are people there making verbatim copies of my blogs posts to their SEO/AdSense "blogs". This is a punishement. :rolleyes:

I forgot to add maemo.org to the exceptions list. It's fixed now. (Force reload the page Shift-Ctrl-R or clear browser cache.)

My apologies to all offended. :o

What's going on?

Running through menu does not work. It should though... I don't know what is the problem :(

Use terminal and /usr/games/pcsx for now...

This is why I shared the code as soon as it reached usable state - to get community bug reports and maybe someone to help. :)

Hey smoku, thanks for the effort!
Do you think you will able to make use of the N900's hardware (ARM and OpenGL ES2) sometime in the future or is it a no-go ? And would donating help?

Re: PCSX-m
 
smoku, any way you could move the install location to /usr/share/games ? /usr/games is non-standard, at least in all the years I've used linux.

edit:
better yet, leave all data files in /usr/share/pcsx and move /usr/games/pcsx-m to /usr/bin/pcsx-m

alternatively, you can do like other games and move everything from /usr/share/pcsx to /usr/share/games/pcsx

At least then, a user can run by just envoking:
Code:

pcsx-m
It might also solve your icon launcher problems. The desktop file would need to be fixed as well

  • The MIPS2ARM recompiler is already there - ported from PSX4ALL
  • There are some bits of i386 assembly in SoftGPU code, that may be ported to ARM assembly
  • PCSX architecture is plugin based and there already is OpenGL GPU plugin in the sources - unfortunately OpenGL is not supported on N900 and I had no luck with running it on glesport nor on gl-wes-v2
  • There is OpenGL 2 GPU plugin available which I guess would be trivial to port to OpenGL ES 2.0 - unfortunately it is closed source. I contacted Pete asking him to share it, but I got no answer so far.
.

I will do what I can to optimize the axisting CPU and software renderer, but don't count on me doing any OpenGL ES work.
I shared this so anyone could pick up this work.

Maemo is not standard Linux, and /usr/games is where N900 stores games.

Code:

~ $ ls /usr/games
drnoksnes  gltron    gnuchessx  lmarbles  scummvm
flobopuyo  gnuchess  kobodl    pcsx      wrapper
