mudlord and crew are doing a pretty major rewrite of the VBA core - have you checked out their work?
Yes, I have seen VBA, but VGBA is a different program. I have already done a partial rewrite (using ARM assembly) when adapting it for Symbian. So, the Maemo version is a relatively painless port of that work.
I'm attempting to pair and use my PS3 bluetooth joypads with my n800. They work great on my linux laptop and are very portable. Compiling the pairing app and performing the USB based sync is the first step. I would have to see what is available to create the /dev/input/js0 devices next. But I think this would be the best game interface for the lack of cables makes it easy to have more than one player without the use of hubs.
Hey sorry for leaving you guys hanging so long. Real Life (tm) has intruded here in pupnikland
There is some good news: i did get DrPocketSnes stripped down to the point where it runs and loads a ROM on the tablet (this was in January).
Can't wait to prove zerojay wrong :P Well - strictly speaking I expect he's right - we can't get 60fps in real screen updates until we figure out how to manually control vsync and possibly bypass SDL - and the fast (tile based) emulation from Squidge is not 100% compatible... so yeah it won't be 100% compatible at 60fps....
But it should be a solid 30fps with frameskip1 on N8x0 at the very least..
i babble - sorry again about no releases - i'm not dead yet
