firmware Commit FS#8387 by Adam Gashlin. Enables detection of firewire devices for charging on various Ipods. Note that charging itself is not yet implemented on these devices. 2008-01-20 23:03:23 +00:00

manual Manual: Be more accurate about 'reset settings with button during startup' - the feature wasn't mentioned in some manuals even though it is possible (Sansas, Iaudios, H10s); use the *_PAD macros because it depends on the keypad and this way it's easier to exclude it from the 1st-3rd gen Ipod manuals (currently not possible on these targets); use the 'press button' phrasing for the Gigabeat (still not perfect but better than before). 2008-01-20 16:33:12 +00:00

uisimulator compile uisimulator for m:robe 100, button definitions taken from h10 for now 2008-01-20 22:57:49 +00:00
utils Firmware update utility for the Gigabeat S and probably other MTP devices. Based on libmtp's sendfile.c example, tweaked by Maurus Cuelenaere and me to send firmware files. 2007-11-22 18:07:40 +00:00
wps Update the WPS build script so that included builds can have various additional features. This version allows me to compile the new proposed default WPS into new builds. See FS#8443 for more info. 2008-01-18 04:00:12 +00:00

Build Your Own Rockbox

1. Check out 'rockbox' from SVN (or extract a downloaded archive).

   $ svn co svn://svn.rockbox.org/rockbox/trunk rockbox

     or

   $ tar xjf rockbox.tar.bz2

2. Create a build directory, preferably in the same directory as the firmware/
   and apps/ directories. This is where all generated files will be written.

   $ cd rockbox
   $ mkdir build
   $ cd build

3. Make sure you have sh/arm/m68k-elf-gcc and siblings in the PATH. Make sure
   that you have 'perl' in your PATH too. Your gcc cross compiler needs to be
   a particular version depending on what player you are compiling for. These
   can be acquired with the rockboxdev.sh script in the /tools/ folder of the
   source, or will have been included if you've installed one of the
   toolchains or development environments provided at http://www.rockbox.org/

   $ which sh-elf-gcc
   $ which perl

4. In your build directory, run the 'tools/configure' script and enter what
   target you want to build for and if you want a debug version or not (and a
   few more questions). It'll prompt you. The debug version is for making a
   gdb version out of it. It is only useful if you run gdb towards your target
   Archos.

   $ ../tools/configure

5. *ploink*. Now you have got a Makefile generated for you.

6. Run 'make' and soon the necessary pieces from the firmware and the apps
   directories have been compiled, linked and scrambled for you.

   $ make
   $ make zip

7. unzip the rockbox.zip on your music player, reboot it and
   *smile*.

Whenever the tools/configure script gets updated, you can make your makefile
updated too by running 'tools/configure update'.

If you want to build for more than one target, just create several build
directories and create a setup for each target:

   $ mkdir build-fmrecorder
   $ cd build-fmrecorder
   $ ../tools/configure

   $ mkdir build-player
   $ cd build-player
   $ ../tools/configure
