Date: Tue, 17 Jun 2003 12:03:14 -0700 Hi, This is my first post on the list. My apologies if this question has been asked and answered previously. I have just recently bought a Jukebox FM Recorder 20gig. One of the first thing I did was to install Rockbox. However, I have been having some problems powering on the unit using Rockbox. Since I have installed Rockbox as soon as I connected the device, I'm not sure how it should behave without Rockbox. Before going any further I must state that the problem I was encoutering is that pressing "ON" for many seconds (I've been told 5sec), plugging in the AC adapter or connecting the USB cable resulted most of the time, in the unit not starting up. I could see the display being illuminated, hear a feeble sound as if the HD was activated, then the display would turn blank, turn on again and then nothing. Also, after pressing the "ON" button for many seconds, we can see the firmware version and a progress bar. However, when powering off the unit, most of the time it just goes blank. No "shutdown" message. Somebody on another list and a Archos tech suggested that this problem was due to the battery not being fully charged. I completely charged the battery but the problem is still there. Before returning the device I decided this morning to remove Rockbox. So far, after trying a few times, the unit powers on correctly and when shutting it down, the "shutdown" message is displayed, as opposed to when I had Rockbox installed. Hopefully I described the problem correctly. I was wondering if this had been reported before. From what I've done this morning, although the sample is small, it suggests that when using Rockbox there is something that prevents the unit to shutdown correctly. I'll use it during the day and see what happens. Hopefully this solves my problem as it would be costly for me to return the unit to Archos. However, I'd really like to use Rockbox because I like features I had been using in the last week or so. Any help or insight would be appreciated.
