It's another project I had in mind, that has kde specific entries.
Nevermind, and thanks anyway.
EDIT
I am running now the gpsp from Figa, but I am getting stuck on bios.
I will try to change the gpsp folder, and leave feedback.

Considering that no one has managed to make something better yet, that's a pretty though assertion.
I really wonder why do you all think gpSP is going to be any faster. As a hint to anyone that wants to start something with it, I suggest you check Figa's version first, evaluate the "performance benefit" and decide if it's really worth it to keep on spamming this thread forever...
*It's a cheap chinese device made for playing emulators, primarily GBA, but also SNES, Megadrive/Genesis and a number of others.

I'm not saying a better GBA emulator will magically appear, but it is definitely possible.

Just to leave it updated, it's late right now for me in my country,
and I need to study for my exams!
So, as soon as I can, and more probably next tuesday, leave better results.
I could get it to run, but it was simple, the main problem is that it
does not recognize any folder as being the gpSP folder.
I will get the SDK here on this pc I am using, as I have it only on another city's pc, make some new files, and package it.
If at the end I get a working deb, I won't release it to extras-devel,
this is Figa's emulator work, and I won't take credit for it.
Cheers everyone!

I did not took screenshots because I couldn't get it to recognize my bios file. Which folder did you put it Javis?

there's much at task...
To compare them is not a good idea, we will always end up
in the same alley.
But if I am not mistaken iphone 3gs has some more gpu like psp than N900, not that it will make such difference in this case, we use SGX530, iphone is SGX535.
I might be wrong on the gpu, but I really guess they are able to make some higher polygon rate.
It's a slightly difference, but all this talk just to say it has not the same hardware
as I might be vomiting some wrong stuff here,have a good day everyone!
