Local32.zip reupload please?
Toddler’s latest local32 and local32a.zip packs are da bomb. Read more here: http://dingoo-scene.blogspot.com/2009/10/new-local-32a-pack-available.html
However, they are on Megaupload, which is a pain in the ass, and not only just because of Gollum’s piles. Can anyone upload the files Local 32.zip and Local 32a.zip to a better provider? Or if you’d like to fling them to me by ftp, email me and I’ll provide some server space for (hopefully) easier downloads all round.
Update 26 October 2009: MU is working fine! Just soft disconnect, reconnect your router to refresh your ip if you get a "Download Limit Reached" error. Or head down to your nearest internet cafe! Basically, it looks like after one substantial upload, MU logs your IP, so you must either clear it or grab it from a different machine.
What’s the difference between an Atari 7800 and a 2600?
No, the answer is not 5200 (although there’s something in that for all of us). Or 42, for that matter.
Proving that Dingoo-ing is educational, until 5 seconds and however long it took to type this post, I never realised that the Atari 7800 was in fact Atari’s attempt to compete with the NES. I always thought it was just a 2600 in a different case, which according to Wikipedia, is not an uncommon perception:
A view held by some was that the 7800 was essentially a souped up 2600. Even in an interview, Leonard Tramiel supported this viewpoint, stating "the 7800 is essentially a 2600 with some things put into hardware that were done in software on the 2600."[3] While this view is shared by many, the 7800 is different from the 2600 in several important areas. It features a full 6502c processor whereas the 2600 VCS has a stripped down 6507 processor which runs at a slower speed. It has additional RAM (Random Access Memory) and the ability to access more cartridge data at one time than the 2600. The most substantial difference, however, is its entirely different graphics architecture which differs markedly from either the Atari 2600 VCS or Atari’s 8-bit line of computers.
The 7800 ran all 2600 carts, and there were only about 60 native games made for it, which might explain the misconception. In truth, the 7800 was capable of much better GFX. Compare this (7800 native):
With this (2600):
Wikipedia also says:
Perhaps the most interesting recent development was the creation of the Cuttle Cart II, a device that allowed the Atari 7800 to read MMC cards containing binary files of Atari 7800 programs. The Cuttle Cart II has enabled more people to play the entire 2600 and 7800 library on an original system as well as binaries of unreleased games and new homebrew titles. The Cuttle Cart II was a success by homebrew standards, selling out both production runs and commanding high prices on Ebay.
So that makes your Dingoo a Cuttle Cart II emulator as well? Other interesting nuggets:
An expansion interface on the side of the 7800 would've allowed for a Laserdisc player to connect to the 7800 to play Laserdisc games like Dragon's Lair.
Whoa! 7800 Dragon’s Lair. That would have cost, oh, $5,000 or some such, back in the day?! But at least the 7800 wasn’t a failure, and arguably, by the metrics that many will say matter the most, was a success:
The Atari 7800 distantly trailed the Nintendo Entertainment System in terms of units sold but was a profitable enterprise for Atari Corp., coasting largely on Atari’s name and its 2600 compatibility. Profits were strong, due to low investment in game development and marketing. However, Atari’s marketing of the 7800 helped to further tarnish their reputation, ultimately leading to their continuous decline with subsequent systems such as the Jaguar and Lynx.
Which brings me back to my original misconception: Atari might have done even better putting the 2600 into a new case, and leaving it at that:)!

Booboo releases new system and toolchain
Booboo has updated his blog!:
New system/toolchain
Quick post. I just uploaded the latest system files and toolchain.
Changes are:Now for something completely different: if you are having trouble getting dingux up and running, try the following as suggested by some users:
- Compiled for MIPS32. Previous toolchain release was wrongly compiled again for MIPS I.
- The whole system (libraries and executables) have been compiled with -O3.
- Fixed MP3/OGG integer decoding in SDL_mixer.
- If you can't get the dual-boot installer to start, that is, you see nothing on the A320 screen after successfully running the two usbtool commands, try to unplug then the USB cable. No idea at all what's the problem and how unplugging the cable fixes it, though (I would need such an A320 and attach a serial console).
- If, after installing the dual-boot, you cannot get dingux running, try to do a complete FAT32 format of your card (with ot without partition, dingux now supports both), and then copy zImage and rootfs before anything else. There might be some problem in u-boot-1.1.6 preventing it from reading FAT32 files in some circumstances, though I tried to fix it by backporting code from the latest u-boot.
Ghosthrider’s Dingoo-Book Case review
Anyone hunting for the ideal dingoo-case (you know who you are, freaks!:)) should be excited at Ghosthrider’s latest custom-made-for-the Dingoo case: the Dingoo Book! Check it out:
Ghosthrider makes these from a thick cotton – denim (?) material. The Dingoo is held securely against the soft bottom half by two elastic bands.
The cover flap is HARD but encased in the same soft material, and a thick band is also provided to hold the case close when you’re not using it. ![]()
![]()
Sure, you can raid your grandfather’s drawer and steal his spectacle case, or even find some fairly workable NDS wraps on DealExtreme for your favourite handheld. But those are compromises. Bleeding obvious benefit no 1 of the Dingoo-Book’s design is this: there is now no need to remove the Dingoo from its case to use it!
Honestly, I love this case, although, to be honest, it was not love at first sight.
You have to get over the fact that it looks, well, “lumpy”. After I used this for a while though, I realised that this is inevitable when you consider what it’s made of. This is the Dingoo case your Grandma would make for you, and you’d never complain about aesthetics to Grandma now, would you? And especially not when she’s made you such a delightfully earthy and useful case. No, I’ve since grown to like the look of it more and more. It’s certainly different from modern mass produced cases.
One other complaint I do have about it is that it can attract dirt, but in the end, this is a minor niggle. Try a silicon wrap and you’ll know the meaning of “attracts dirt”.
On the other hand, there are so many reasons why is this case the greatest thing since Aang took Ozai’s firebending away! Here’s why:
1. It’s customised!: Notice how little room there is between the Y button and the screen on a Dingoo – then notice how the elastic band is the perfect width! That, friends, is the difference between a K-mart suit and a fitted suit. Good luck finding anything else that fits a Dingoo but doesn’t block the screen. Does your Dingoo deserve any less?
2. Lots of pockets: What other case includes compartments for a chamois, reset stylus (OK, OK, so it’s a toothpick – but doesn’t timber = class nowadays?) and a pocket just the right depth to hold a Mini-SD or two without it sinking to the bottom irretrievably? And the chamois and tooth … stylus are included, by the way.
3. Hey, it’s Indestructible!: I don’t know what Ghosthrider uses to stiffen the screen cover. I believe it’s the same stuff that Superman uses for his suit. No cheap cardboard inside – the screen cover is STRONG! It’s some sort of hard perspex that will withstand substantial abuse. We conducted a highly complex scientific and delicately calibrated pressure test, and as you can see the Dingoo-Book passed it with flying colours:
(The weight was 2.4 kilos by the way – look at the picture - not even a curve in the cover!)
4. Improved ergonomics: The case actually provides more material to hang on to when holding the Dingoo, and helps me get a better grip on it (see picture above). The soft back means that you can use the shoulder buttons without scraping the bottom of your fingers on hard plastic. The whole thing is very comfortable to hold and use.
5. Great needlework!: Ghosthrider must have paid good attention in home science class, as the Dingoo-Book is extremely well stitched together, and is not going to come undone any time soon!
6. Cram other stuff into it!: The design of the Dingoo-Book also easily lends itself to holding headphones in place:
7. Undocumented Easter Egg feature!: With a simple twist of the elastic band:
… voila, Dingoo-Book becomes a cradle! (Which saves you a CD-Cover!)
8. Great grip!: The texture of the denim-like material also means the case grips on surfaces you’re likely to use your Dingoo on - like say, your pants - which means if you’re watching a video, you can perch Dingoo on your leg without it sliding off:
If you need a well made, practical and immensely well featured Dingoo case with lots of value add, the Dingoo-Book is it. Ghosthrider charges only 13 Euro SHIPPING INCLUDED WORLDWIDE (and less if you live in France), and can make them in other colours too. Contact Ghosthrider here: http://boards.dingoonity.org/dingoo-hardware-general/dingoo-protecting-cases/msg420/#msg420 , or look up seller “lawarmotte” on Ebay.
