rockbox ported to motorola e680i/a780 by blackhawk from mfc

[LambdaCalculus379]

Considering that there's the mobile phone version that we're discussing here, it seems one step has been made in that direction already. I think a Rockbox "app" version would be a great idea, but I do want to see the source to see how it can be done, and what will need to be tweaked further.

Llorean, I tried looking at the SDL website and Google, but no dice... I don't think (but I'm not ruling out!) that there's an SDL library for the PSP.

[Llorean]

Hmm. Maybe there's one for the DS? I'm pretty sure there was an SDL library for *some* portable device I own, besides my phone. Then again, my memory's so full of bad links these days it's a wonder I can pull anything out of it.

I'll give you the SDL main page for now; it's the best I can offer:

(EDIT): Google IS our Great God! Here you are, Llorean: SDL for Nintendo DS!

And some SDL info for PSP as well, since you've been a great guy and looked out for everyone:

I think he means the source code has now been posted:

Someone familiar with the sim should probably talk to him about working towards merging these changes.  

On a side note, I added "rockbox as an app" to the list of possible GSOC 2008 projects just 20 minutes ago.  What timing.

One of the big problems with that patch is that it contains several other patches (Album Art, BMP Resize, probably others) and also contains whitespace changes and files added that are irrelevant, so it requires someone to put in a bit of time and effort to decipher it.

I was wondering why he just reposted the same link before, and didn't just post straight to this. Thanks for the link, saratoga!

Can't you just patch the source with that patch, then patch -R all the other patches he's added

You'd need to know what he's added though.

[Llorean]

That assumes that the other changes he's made allows those patches to be removed cleanly. You'd need to know both which other patches he's installed, and which versions, and in what order, and so on. Then you have to weed out the extra fills (for example, .orig files that got included for some reason) and so on. There's just a lot of stuff there.

[saratoga]

It looks like his SVN is a bit messed up, probably why he didn't want to post the patch right away.
