wps Several fixes for the cabbiev2 theme. (1) Rename the files used for the rwps and change the WPSLIST so that it is done the same way as for iCatcher and .rwps files are actually included in the zip. (2) Replace the Iaudio rwps background which was taken fron the unicode version before with the correct one. (3) Fix the e200 wps to look like the author intended and with the progressbar at the right spot. (4) Make the 160x128 greyscale version use the helvR10 font as the colour version does. This also fixes a potential issue with the Iaudio rwps. (5) Clean up the WPSLIST a bit and drop (hopefully) unnecessary definitions. I guess it could be even simplified some more, someone with a bit perl foo should look into this. -- (3) and (4) taken from the last entries in FS#8443 by Apoo Maha. 2008-02-02 01:10:43 +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
