I'm also interested in the lcd resolution, and in a front view (photo or preferably scanned) for adding this to the Win32 sims. 23.10.19 # lcd size is in the config-*.h already, I think 23.10.20 # I think the assignments are in button.h already 23.10.31 # yup 23.10.37 # 128*64 iirc 23.11.14 # I don't have any camera nor scanner 23.11.34 # maybe i only damaged the batteries? 23.11.40 # what do you think? 23.12.09 # <[IDC]Dragon> I don't think so, but test it 23.12.30 # amiconn: but there are plenty photographs on donat.org... Maybe on will suit you ? 23.13.21 # There are still routing problems with the site though 23.14.13 # I still can't reach it from home. I remember it works from work though... 23.15.37 # I had those pics taken ... 23.15.40 # https://sourceforge.net/project/screenshots.php?group_id=127835&ssid=5208 23.15.53 # but I'm afraid they might not be good enough 23.20.41 # jyp: (photo) If there is nothing better, maybe I can polish it a bit. It doesn't need to be perfect. 23.21.26 # (buttons) The button codes are indeed there, but I need the physical assignment too, i.e. which button in the pic is which 23.21.46 # It is suitable to tell you over irc ? 23.23.03 # Also, from looking at the pic, I think the gmini has 10 buttons, but there are only 6 codes. Am I wrong that the bottom right arrangement is up/right and left/down, with play in the centre? 23.23.24 # Right 23.24.07 # There are only 8 buttons though 23.24.12 # Ah, I forgot; LEFT and RIGHT are global. Still 2 buttons missing. 23.24.51 # Oh, better count more thoroughly ;) 23.27.34 # So the only "uncertain" (for me) buttons are ON, MENU and CANCEL. 23.28.08 # Oh yes ... 23.28.16 # On the right: 23.28.23 # top is "ON" 23.28.28 # below in cancel 23.28.36 # menu is the big on the left 23.29.25 # Ah ok. Good to know. 23.31.00 # jyp: don't check for CPU, check for LCD 23.31.03 # in the LCD code 23.31.25 # I guess I overthought it ... 23.31.55 # My last opinon was that if you mount a recorder lcd on the gmini board 23.32.24 # one would check the cpu for accessing the ports 23.32.38 # jyp: your root dir listing pic is suitable imho. Good front view, no shadows (unlike the other one) 23.32.56 # There's the led flare 23.33.19 # jyp: you're also not following the ident level 23.33.26 # omg 23.34.00 # * Bagder is a whiner ;-) 23.34.41 # Ok I corrtect that right away 23.36.14 # There are no real front view pics on donat.org 23.36.24 # While I'm at it ... do you prefer a check on the LCD type or CPU ? 23.36.53 # [IDC]Dragon: Your commit message is a bit strange... 23.36.54 # I have no strong opinion 23.37.05 # amiconn, I ask starth if he can take a front view snapshot 23.37.19 # Okay. 23.37.53 # Whoops, 23.38.01 # i forgot he torn his device apart 23.39.46 # <[IDC]Dragon> amiconn: saw that, yes, I fixed a typo and it got all messed up 23.40.19 # its definitly my player :(( 23.40.29 # i try to send it back tommorow 23.40.30 # [IDC]Dragon: Did you check whether these are the only unused entries? 23.42.26 # Now I need to rebuild the voices files again ;( 23.44.59 # I'm getting "Using deprecated info format strings.
