iPod 4g Mono Charging problems
popper:
Apologies, but I now have a confused look on my face. Just installed RockBox 3.6 on my iPod Mono G4.
/Settings/General Settings/
/System
/Battery (8.5.2)
under /Battery is Battery Capacity only.
The Charge During USB Connection option is not there.
Just went down the listing, and the rest appears kosher -- Disk (8.5.3) has subdir Disk Spindown & Directory Cache.
Limits has 2 subdirs, all there.
USB Keypad Mode (8.5.8 ) is all there.
Rest appears there.
However, under Battery the subdirectory Charge During USB Connection is not there.
Am I missing something, or my this version of Rockbox missing something (and my suspicion is that it is I - and I apologize if I am missing something too obvious).

AlexP:
The USB charging settings were implemented after 3.6, so you are not missing anything, just some slight confusion over versions :)
Try a current build and it should all be there and work.
popper:
Too funny. Thank you.
Yes, I always get the stable version, and not the daily "current build". Will get it tomorrow and trust you are correct.
Just an unrelated note. When I download RockBox on my 4G Mono, I get all the themes by default. However, some of the themes are so dark that they cannot be read on my Mono-screen (I suspect they are meant for the 4G-Color).
Not a real problem, just thought someone should know that there are some themes which come w/ the 4G Mono download which do not work.

While this is rather clear from my point of view it might be a good idea to slightly modify that sentence to make it clearer (changes hilighted):

Technically speaking there is a connection, even if it's a power only connection :)

The themes get selected based on screen size, not colour depth so you also get the non-monochrome themes. Some are usable, some aren't, depending on the colours that were used and how they map on to the limited number of greys the mono screen supports.
