Date: Sat, 8 Feb 2003 23:58:47 -0000 (GMT) I promised Linus a birthday present earlier, and here it is! My testing today has shown that the FM Recorder has hardware battery charging, so that Rockbox can forget about the charging algorithm. I first of all tested with deep-discharge on, and that seemed to show this, so I built a test firmware with HAVE_CHARGE_CTRL undefined, and this confirmed it over several tests. I attach a patch file (nopower.diff) which updates 2 copies of config-fmrecorder.h (local and export copies), and also makes minor changes to 2 other files which had linking errors because some parts called functions which were no longer defined. I have tested that these modifications compile and link for player and recorder, but due to lack of hardware I cannot test these! There will be some minor modifications to the debug/display code so that the correct icons and statuses get shown when the charger in plugged and unplugged, but these are minor cosmetics which I can look at over the next day or two. Hopefully a few other FM owners can download and test this, and report back any problems. A compiled firmware can be downloaded from the link in my sig. The patch and firmware are both built from CVS code at about 14:50 earlier today. The adc.c patch I posted a few days ago is still required to smooth out the voltage displays, until someone comes up with a better method. This is not included in the patch, but is included in the firmware I uploaded. I'll send this now, so that it gets to the list on Linus' birthday - Happy Birthday again!
