the BUTTON_REL event is not a real one.. its sent from the general button driver... if its really needed we probaly could fix it to include the button data though

I'm a Korean D2 user, so I can't English well. I already Installed rockbox in my D2, (my d2 is 2Gb dmb version, 1.55 firmwear.
In my cafe(http://cafe.naver.com/d2d2d2.cafe) , Somebody uploaded the 1.55 firmwear + Rockbox bootloader.
it is 1.55 public firmwear(http://mfiles.naver.net/508765b0abfb9c29055c/data30/2008/5/8/269/d2.bin), about 3.65 mb
and it is patched 1.55 firmwear(http://mfiles.naver.net/6dba588d96c6a1173f5f/data31/2008/5/8/129/d2_patched.zip)about 1.8mb
you know, now rockbox firmwear has a lot of problem(It's not complete yet?)
1. Can't read SD/MMC card.
2. some plugin is failed. (doom, rockboy, notepad. etc)
3. booting is often show the "file not found", "bad checksum" . bad checksum error's solution = first booting public firmwear, and get off sd card nd put in sd card. so the rockbox booting well
4.Can't save the config-setting.
5. the battery decrease very fast.
6. Can't play the music, movie
7. touch screen often failed
... etc
so I just using rockbox firmwear to confirm the battery .... :P ...I'm so sad
Ps. oh, I'm sorry, the rink is wrong.
http://cafe.naver.com/d2d2d2/492390 <- you can see d2_patched.zip file and d2n_patched.zip file in this rink.

Could you install firmware 3.55 and give it a shot?
By the way, what kind of knowledge is required to port Rockbox successful to Cowon D2? Seems like a lot of stuff need to be done in regard to the user interface (being a touchscreen) and themes.
Llorean:
Themes really have nothing to do with porting.

It's not complete yet - you can see the current status at the CowonD2Info wiki page. In particular: "NOTE: The current Rockbox build is not functional - it is not in any way a replacement for the Cowon firmware. The following installation instructions are intended for a developer/test audience only."
But we are working on it (slowly) ;D

The user interface is a secondary concern really, it works "well enough" already. The most important thing we need now is a good low-level understanding of the hardware and existing Cowon firmware, so that we can implement a more reliable driver for the internal flash and start working on sound output.
Unfortunately the only way to do this is via experimentation and disassembly of the original firmware. So the key skills are C, ARM assembly and most of all, patience.
