docs Keep those two empty lines. 2008-03-11 19:47:49 +00:00
firmware More iAudio M3 work. Target build compiles, but same problem regarding plugins as the simulator. Boots to the menu, but it can't be used yet because only main & remote Play button work. USB works. 2008-03-14 08:59:51 +00:00
flash Fix Red 2008-03-13 04:03:55 +00:00
fonts Commit FS#8626 by Frank Otto. Fixes character glitch in helvR10. 2008-03-04 18:16:02 +00:00
gdb move the ifp7xx usb serial driver files to more specific names, to make the "usb_serial" name available for more general usb class driver use 2008-03-02 18:16:24 +00:00
icons Small fix for the default colour icon set - the equalizer showed one pink line, use pure magic magenta there to make this line transparent. 2008-03-13 21:47:11 +00:00
manual m:robe 100 - fix screenshots 2008-03-14 20:06:23 +00:00
rbutil when changing settings from the Talk and Voice window also update the main widgets settings. 2008-03-14 18:27:39 +00:00
tools In order to disable building plugins for a target, 'plugin' must be set to empty in configure. 2008-03-14 09:22:30 +00:00
uisimulator More M3 work: Rockbox logo, keymap, sim definitions, sim bitmap. Simulator builds and works now, but for some reason it tries to build plugins even though they're deactivated through configure... The keymap probably needs further refinement. 2008-03-14 00:17:59 +00:00
utils Oops, I should try compiling things before committing... 2008-02-23 20:50:26 +00:00
wps ignore carriage returns in WPS files to avoid problems with cygwin/tortoisesvn 2008-03-10 17:47:58 +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*.

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
