GPF has released VTA (VBA port for dreamcast) several months ago. The last version is all just kos, but the versions before that were sdl based. The sdl dc versions and the fully kos version actually play commercial gba games are around the same speed with sound (turning sound off doesnt speed up anything) which is about 3-5 fps. The thing is, the SDL versions use the old sdl driver. Can someone recompile the VTA with chui's new driver and see what happens? A source is located below. Perhaps someone can update the sourcebase to match the pc's because the pc version(sdl) has had several video and speed optimizations.

This is my compilation, I have updated the SDL libs.
I'm sorry the compilation was done with another SDL Libs
Let me make the right changes, I know the New Chui SDL libs compiles OK.
