-SVN builds are quickly tested with firmware 2.0.0 for reference.

-the GP2X compatability section of the ScummVM WiKi
-<http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/GP2X#Compatibility_List>.
-
-Please note the version and date of the ScummVM build you are running

-Included engines

-Just because an engine is included does not mean any/all of its games
-are supported. Please check game compatability for more infomation.

Supported audio options
@@ -79,106 +47,6 @@ FLAC audio is currently unsupported.
For best results use uncompressed audio in games.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
-Supported cut-scene options
-
-No cut scene compression options are currently supported.
-
-DXA video support will be added as soon as it is stable.
-
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
-Recent changes
-
-Refined audio hacks to reduce audio delay a little more.
-Enabled hardware scalar code.
-Now built using SDL 1.2.9 for the parts of the port that use SDL (some
-parts now hit the hardware directly).
-Enabled new launcher - (Ensure defaulttheme.zip is in the same folder as
-the executable).
-Aspect Ratio Correction can now be disabled ?per game?. When adding a
-game you can find this option on the GFX tab.
-Note: This will cause the game to run with a black border at the bottom
-as it will be rendered to a 320*200 frame.

-How to save
-
-NOTE: Everything is saved to the SD card, saves are stored in the saves
-folder under your main ScummVM executable unless you set another save
-location.
-
-The configiration file for ScummVM (.scummvmrc) is stored in the same
-place as the ScummVM executable.
-
-The save process below is for Scumm engine games but the principle is
-the same for all.
-
-In Game.
-
-1. Right Trigger
-2. Select SAVE with B
-3. Select a position with B
-4. Right trigger puts ? in the name box for some text.
-5. Press B to save
-
-Basically the emulated keys you can use are equivelent to the values
-buttons are mapped to,
-
-I have a virtual keyboard like the GP32 one (left/right on the stick to
-pick chars) to add in at some point ;-)
-
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
-Controller mappings
-
-Mouse emulation:
-
-Stick: Move Pointer
-Stick Click: ?light? Left Click
-B: Left click
-X: Right click
-
-Keyboard emulation:
-
-Start: Return
-Select: Escape
-Y: Space Bar (Pause)
-Right Trigger: Game Menu (Save, Load, Quit etc.)
-Volume Buttons: Increase and Decrease volume (5% per press)
-
-Fancy button combos:
-
-NOTE: To use button combos press and hold the Left Trigger then...
-
-Y: Toggle "zoom" mode - Try it in larger games like Broken Sword.
-Volume Buttons: Increase and Decrease subtitle speed (In SCUMM games)
-Right Trigger: 0 (For skipping the copy protection in Monkey Island 2)
-Select: Exit ScummVM completely (and gracefully)
-
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
-Know issues
-
-Possible random crash (well SegFault). I have had this happen twice and
-have not tracked down the cause.
-It happens very infrequently, both times it was in the DOTT CD intro.
-Saving often is never a bad idea anyhow.
-
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
-TODO's
-
-Fix save support when using the Sky engine (Beneath a Steel Sky) - You
-CAN'T save at the moment but auto save works.
