    Homebrew GBA GBA Exploader on modern libnds...

    I think this is for using an expansion Pak as a way to load GBA games into It and then boot into GBA mode so one can load GBA games from a DS flashcard? Is that correct?

    UMINEKO NO NAKU KORO NI CHIRU libpng errors on VNDS

    DS screen is 256x192 so assuming 16bit depth each full screen should take 100kb of memory. music can be streamed compressed from card and so does text, therefore I assume 4mb is more than enough for this. In what dimensions are the images?

    UMINEKO NO NAKU KORO NI CHIRU libpng errors on VNDS

    I dont know how the files are distributed, but I expect the image to be in png Format scattered around some folder. If you take a look at (1) there seems to bem ways to check If the png files are sane. And there are even ways of fixing those kind of errors. But this errors seems to be more of...

    Automated N64 decompiler, RT64

    Probably not. It seems to wrap RDP calls to vulkan or dx12, and 3DS doesn't do any of that. Instead what you want is a lib that can transform RDP calls into what 3DS uses.

    Can't you actually select which one to boot from unlaunch?

    Homebrew How would you feel about music albums on the Nintendo DS?

    When I only had a DS and those specialized media players were expensive, my DSlite was my portable media player. Moonlight and DS Organizer were powerful software for that mean. If we were in 2006 I'd say you would actually profit from this, but today with smartphones, YouTube, etc I don't think so.

    Backdoor in `xz` found, affects ssh (linux remote desktop connections)

    Here is the catch: the attacker compromised liblzma (library of compression algorithms) which is used by sshd (remote desktop). At some point in sshd execution It will call a function in liblzma to uncompress something and that is the point where the malicious code takes action. Yes. If someone...

    Error when compiling libNDS rom

    Those are linking errors, which means the linker (in this case the program 'ld') was not able to find some required file needed to finish the linking process. For example, the routine '_start' is the first function executed by the program and has the task of seting up the environment (initialize...

    Some regions of the touchscreen are imprecise on a DS Lite

    So I have just spoken with the previous owner and she said there was no screen replacement and the touchscreen have always been a little 'off'. She got it brand new so it is possible that this unity was faulty from factory or she damaged the screen on early usage. I looked into some digitizers...

    Some regions of the touchscreen are imprecise on a DS Lite

    Hello, folks. So recently I ran across an used DS lite that was given to me. The overall health of the system was excellent at a first look: 1. The shell is in excellent shape. No visible scratches or anything. 2. The battery seems to be working very well even after years of not being turned...

    Emulation Homebrew Emulator The DSi deserves a better SNES emulator

    Isn't ZSNES written in very optimized i486 asm to the point that It wasn't ever ported to anything other than 32-bit x86?

    Homebrew Homebrew app Homebrew rom wont run on real hardware

    Emulators in general are known to not be precise enough for development. I had issues with homebrew crashing on real hardware because multiple calls to fatFsInit(), or incorrect alingmnent on dmaCopy, whereas melonDS simply swallowed everything and the ROM ran fine. I suggest you to bissect...

    Homebrew Is anybody working on any new PDF readers for the DS/DSi?

    Back when I had a DSLite there was no solution other than convert each page to jpg. Even there the low resolution made things reallh difficult. But I guess you are in better luck using your phone or getting an old Android 4 tablet.
