DreamBoy for 7025

"Here is,

after some days of hard recoding. The GNUBOY emulator running in DM7025.
This is the first BETA version (v0.1) of the GNU GameBoy and GameBoy Color emulator.

Requirements:
+ DM7025
+ HDD
+ keyboard (Desirable)

Install:
upload to /var/tmp
ungzip and untar in /
restart enigma2

Uninstall:
manual unistall (do it with care)
rm -rf /hdd/gb /usr/lib/enigma2/python/Plugins/Extensions/DreamBoy

Roms:
It was tested with some commertial roms: 1942, Ghost'N Goublins and Tetris among others.
This v0.1 version contains only freeware roms from PDROMS due to copyright restrictions.

Control/Manage:
The remote control can be used to manage the DreamBoy plugin. Also it can be used to play but it is very slow in order to keep a live you as player. It is better to use an usb keyboard or a gamepad.

I have tested a logitech corless keyboard and a cordless Rumblepad 2.

Hi all,

This is the v0.2 BETA version of the GNU GameBoy and GameBoy Color emulator. I apologize for my mistake about TV Flicker. The reason was that I developed the v0.1 version using a FlyDVB-T Duo Cardbus to see the result in my laptop and the flicker is not present. As you report, the flicker appears due to I only write a single pixel line in vertical axis instead of write 4 (currently the view scale factor is set to 4).

If you have any bugreport or request do not hesitate to sendme it in this great forum.

Thanks to Seddi, mahrko, astakona73 & Bombjack for their reports.


Changes:
V0.1
+ First initial Beta version

v0.2:
+ TV Flicker Eliminated (Scale and density fixed to 4)
+ Improve Sound
+ Include Generic Joystic Driver (As suggest Seddi, Thanks again)
+ Included a little enumeration of tested games GAMES.tst.
+ Included this README.txt
