g_ether.zip
- Alternatively you can just download g_ether.zip from the archive and extract it somewhere to your SD card and run usbnet.gpu. <- did NOT WORK for me (this step should be removed imho) --Jae686
- Could you please be a bit more specific about the problem? --dedeibel
- this step has consistently not worked for anyone I've helped - removing as part of cleanup. Looking at the script I think it's borked, the one on this page works Justthisguy 12:56, 27 October 2006 (PDT)
- NOTE: @Justthisguy If by the archive you mean the g_ether.zip file found at http://archive.gp2x.de, then yes it does not work because the installation script is wrong. I have corrected it and tested that the newly installed g_ether.o works with my FC5 x86_64 2.6.18 kernel. ldesnogu
- Yeah, that's the one I mean. It's just a lot easier to say, download this file, use this script. I think using the g_ether.zip from the archive would just confuse matters. Justthisguy 05:08, 11 May 2007 (PDT)
What about linking 2 GP2X's?
I'd sure love to see the ability emerge for 2 GP2Xs to link up directly via USB (or perhaps the EXT port) and play a multiplayer game. It's still bizarre to me that GPH would have released a handheld without this capabiity - the very first GameBoy had it, as have its successors, the Game Gear, the Lynx, and many others.

Activating USB on GP2X
" Go to settings -> system on your GP2X. Enable "advanced menu extension" "
- Maybe I'm stupid, but I have searched for more than 10 minutes everywhere on my GP2X-F200 how to activate USB (be it networking or anything else), and found nothing. Instead of "advanced menu extension", I found "USB Host" which seemed to fit, but activating it does nothing (lsusb doesn't list the GP2X or anything similar). Is there differences between models?

- There is no USB networking on the F200 since GPH foolishly replaced the USB gadget chip with a built in card reader. Sorry. Orkie 10:31, 10 January 2008 (PST)
