No more luck here,

I tried to compile gnuboy, it runs at a decent speed on the nokia and I can play some simple games, but only at double size (triple would fit better but seems too slow).

I still have some problems with the keys, home key was trapped by the OS.

This is the gnuboy.rc file:
----8<--------------

set scale 2
set density 2

bind enter +start

bind esc +b
bind f4 +a

bind f7 +select
bind f6 quit
----8<--------------

The sdl binary is attached.

I really want to try it out but it doesn't work :( on my N800.
What I get is:
- sh: ./sdlgnuboy: not found

I don't understand what exactly is not found. The file is in the MyDocs folder with exec permissions.

I've made an attempt to compile the source code on the tablet itself but it stopped with an error in the main.c file. I've managed to compile PipePanic, so the compiler does work!

Please help to clarify the situation.

Another thing that I'm curious about is whether there is a away to run the GB, GBC, GBA code "directly" on the CPU. GBA seems to use an earlier version of the arm processor (arm7 vs arm11 ?), so why isn't it possible to create something similar to kqemu for qemu x86 emulator? Qemu/KQemu (http://fabrice.bellard.free.fr/qemu/about.html)
I've seen emulators for PDA and PacketPC. What about linux?
Maybe this isn't the right thread or indeed forum but I don't know where else I could find people trying to achieve GB emulation on N800.
