    3.x support will come to toltec, I've been blocked by stuff outside of my control a couple of times. Including things happening in my life that I won't get into.

    You can see the current progress here: https://github.com/toltec-dev/toltec/issues/820

    As for the comment on the kernel change, that was actually an ask by someone in the community: https://github.com/reMarkable/linux/issues/8

    Did anyone already ask reMarkable for a copy of the source code for those kernel modules, which should be possible according to the GPLv2? Their kernel repo on GitHub does not seem to be updated yet.

    The official linux kernel documentation of the power_supply class is located here. If you read that you may notice there are some lines in the uevent file that aren't described. That's because the particular battery has other statistics exposed by the driver (source file here). Looking at the source file (and datasheet of the MAX77818), it appears that the CURRENT_NOW is a measurement of the current going in/out of the battery. It's stored as a signed number so the negative value you're seeing is probably the current flowing out of the battery while it's discharging. The CURRENT_AVG is simply an average of the CURRENT_NOW over a time period, so it will stay negative for a little while if you just plugged in the charger, before settling to 0.

    Remarkable uses openembedded, the kernel source can be found here https://github.com/reMarkable/linux only the user facing gui software is closed source and there are launchers that can start other gui programs. There is also a framework somewhere on githuvlb for writing native gui apps and so on. There is also the project http://www.davisr.me/projects/parabola-rm/ that provide an alternative os.

    This line seems like the obvious cry for help from the driver. This is the file responsible for the error (I think): https://github.com/reMarkable/linux/blob/lars/zero-gravitas_4.9/drivers/input/touchscreen/wacom_i2c.c but unfortunately I haven't found out anything useful.
