remarkable2-framebuffer VS remarking

Looks like rm2fb is now installed by default: https://github.com/ddvk/remarkable2-framebuffer/issues/90

We can currently hook into it, but only to obtain the framebuffer or send updates ourselves. 3rd party mods use remarkable-framebuffer which does the injection and easily enables 3rd party community apps/mods to use the screen.

Is is safe? there are issues like this or this

Instructions here, at the end of the "Configuration" section. Please not, however, that these settings were only added to the rm2fb repo 11 hours ago (commit). So again, best to check that up-to-date settings exist before upgrading your firmware.

It's an eInk screen, so yes-ish.

We get around this by just piggybacking on the build in application's screen display routines[0]

Have you installed rm2fb? https://github.com/ddvk/remarkable2-framebuffer

This seems to have updated all the installed components. In particular, rm2fb is now on the latest release which, if I'm understanding correctly, supports 2.9. ("Support for release 2.9.0.210")

FWIW here is a 1-liner I used for H in *.highlights; do cat $(echo $H | sed "s/highlights/metadata/" ) | grep visibleName; cat $H/*json | grep 't":' | grep -v '"height"'; done to get native highlights to my wiki https://fabien.benetou.fr/PIMVRdata/RecentHighlights and there are other tools e.g https://github.com/sabidib/remarking to capture more and integration better, including to tools like Mendeley or ReadWise https://github.com/zachwick/rextract
