NDS Bookmark

Download moonshell v1.71 from here and don't touch it.

Go here: right here.... and download the latest R4 firmware. Extract it with something like WinRAR.

Ignore the _system_ folder and the _DS_MENU.DAT, take the _DS_MSHL.nds and drag it into the moonshl folder that came with it.

Open the moonshl folder and find the .nds file you just dragged into it. Rename it moonshell.nds instead of _DS_MSHL.nds.

Go to the Evolution moonshell you downloaded and extract it. Open up the PLUGINS folder. Find reset.mse.

Drag it to the R4 moonshell's PLUGINS folder. When it asks you if you want to replace the existing reset.mse say yes.

Now Just take the R4's moonshl folder and drag it to the root of your MicroSD.

Format USB drive in linux

http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/howto-format-usb-pen-drive/

$ sudo mkfs.ext3 /dev/sda1

To see the list of mounted drives, do
$ mount | grep /media
/dev/sdb1 on /media/disk type vfat (rw,nosuid,nodev,uhelper=hal,shortname=mixed,uid=1000,utf8,umask=077,flush)

To unmount do
$ umount /dev/sdb1

http://www.pgts.com.au/cgi-bin/psql?blog=0808&ndx=b002

Finally create a folder called "games" in the root of the Micro SD disk. You can copy .NDS games into here. While I was about it I created some additional folders, called "pictures", "music" and documents. This enabled the kids to use the Micro SD as memory stick when it wasn't being used as part of the R4DS. Here is a summary of the commands to use for Linux. Take Note: This example uses the values of /dev/sdb1 and the mount point of /media/disk -- As stated earlier, This may vary according to the version and hardware -- Substitute the appropriate device name and/or mount points, for your system, in the commands below:

1. umount /media/disk
2. sudo mkfs.vfat -I -F 32 -v /dev/sdb1
3. Mount the device again (just unplug it and plug it again -- if you have automount, or use "mount" if you know the command)
4. Change directory to the location where you downloaded the RAR file, and enter this command:
unrar x English-1.18.rar
5. chdir English
6. cp -rp * /media/disk/
7. mkdir /media/disk/games /media/disk/pictures /media/disk/music
8. You can now copy games to the /media/disk/games folder.
9. umount /media/disk
(or use "Safely Remove" option).

If you are a windoze user, (what are you doing reading this blog?), these commands should work:

1. Use WinZip to upack the RAR, make sure that you preserve the Folders. Copy it to a separate folder (eg. C:\FOO)
2. Insert the USB stick (with the Micro SD in it). Determine which drive it has mounted as. (Check with Windoze Explorer). I'll assume that it is drive E:. Substitute the appropriate drive.
3. format e: /fs:fat32
4. e:
5. xcopy /s c:\foo\English\*
6. mkdir games
7. mkdir pictures
8. mkdir music

PictoDS

http://cbds.free.fr/Softwares/PictoDS/?language=en

It didn't run for amd64 so I ripped the swt.jar from Vuse (Azureus) and replaced the one in lib/swt.jar and it worked!

Then I did `convert book.pdf book.jpg` and I got all my jpgs w00t. I also needed to create this dir manually ` $ mkdir -p /home/foo/PictoDS_linux_2.1.0/bin/pictodstmp`

Now I can view PDFs in ComicDS

Soft reset on NDS
Where can I find it?

The soft reset is represented by a little R circle (either green or red) at the top right of the bottom screen when you are in the folders.

Green = soft reset function is enabled.
While in a game, press L+R+A+B+X+Y (i.e. the front two shoulder buttons and the four buttons next to the bottom screen of the NDS)
