rmkit VS remarkable2-framebuffer

https://github.com/rmkit-dev/rmkit/issues/181 This might be of some help! :)

I've found that if I use any of the toltec packages that do things with the screen, like launchers, iago,etc, this happens. When I sat down and debugged it by removing packages one by one it came down to the display package that they all depend on. I think I've filed a bug for it on GitHub. Nope, I mentioned it in a comment in a bug on github.

How do i build other apps on there? for example this app wordlet (https://github.com/rmkit-dev/rmkit/tree/master/src/wordlet)

PS: the source code is here

I'm desperately trying to install Harmony (https://github.com/rmkit-dev/rmkit/tree/master/src/harmony) on my RM2.

I want to download the iago hack to have shapes but it requires lamp and genie, it being a gesture configurator. I downloaded all three but i dont know how to add the config file to create the gesture. Any help would be appreciated

After all of that, I can activate iago by swiping down with three fingers. (The "direction=right" definition allow for you swipe "down" when the tablet is in landscape mode. Basically, genie doesn't know about landscape mode; everything looks like portrait mode to it.) You can, of course, set your own gestures to trigger iago. The genie config file is documented on github.

you can disable remux's power management using a config option (as specified in the README): https://github.com/rmkit-dev/rmkit/tree/master/src/remux, but i think what is happening is due to xochitl powering stuff off.

this is partially addressed in recent versions of remux, but i have not yet merged it into toltec. see https://github.com/rmkit-dev/rmkit/issues/80

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")
