While I've been stuffing around with my computer and this silly job thing, some bastard over there in the middle of the desert has been doing great work on the firmware. I received some of said great work and will give it a look over tomorrow on the way in to work on the train. Depending on what I find and how I feel about what I've done after him I may do a release with his work and merge his changes back into mine for the next one to be out soonish.

Progress happens even when I'm asleep. Just wait till it's popular and useful, dozens of people will work on it :-)

Good work! :-) Legend!!!!

I'm in a bit of a mess right now. I have the flash version, the one that was based on, the one from my backup, and also the recovered one (after I recover it). So, I have some merging and figuring out to do! Sean, carry on working on it if you like, and when I get my stuff sorted out I can merge in your latest stuff at that time.

The docs you've written for the asm are incredible, good work!

I'm closer to making progress right now, but I feel I need a big screen to do the merging on as the laptop is a bit cramped.

Plus I still need to recover the "lost" data first.

Thanks for your work! Awesome stuff.

Thanks! Yes, I'll carry on and write the loops to aid in table burning. If you have an old monitor and a VGA out maybe you can run an old monitor in tandem like I do. Let me know if you have any questions, or things for me to fix.

Oh, I just need to install the nvidia drivers so I can do nice xrandr switching. I have a 20" LCD ready to use... I'm too lazy for xinerama etc these days. At some point I'll sort it all out :-)

I recovered the files from the old disk without any hassle. Now I just need to organise the new disk and copy stuff from the backup drive and setup the last of the tools. Will see what I can do merge wise on the train tomorrow.

Bump :-)

Sean has had serial code to test it with for a while and is working hard on making it bug free :-)

As soon as he has that licked I need him to add burning to an explicit page to his function. IE :

Code: Select all

writeAlignedBlock(destAddr, sourceAddr, whichPPAGE){}
I can handle the paging external to the app function if required? that is very easy, just set it and enter function :-)

Get it working 100% first and I can try that, it's probably just a wrapper thing anyway...

PPage is practically done, once I get everything ironed out it should be a 15 min job. Wow I just realized that, would be the fastest useful contribution I have made to diyefi haha.
