reMarkable 2 support

The rM2 has different device pathes and hence it requires some adaption to run oxide on the rM2.

A file-tree of the sys folder rM2 was provided by @ddvk is here: tree.txt

Hi. Currently the best option seems to use genie. Genie is a systemd-service in the background that can run commands on certain gestures. Here is a good sample config for oxide (paste it to /opt/etc/genie.conf). (Not sure if it's still the case but when suspending/waking up the guestures can mis-trigger.)

I feel like nobody reads the release notes :(

I feel the same. Everything relaying current information should probably just go into the readme as people will look there. I personally keep to only stating changes and sometimes hint or repeat what I put in the readme.

FWIW, I read release notes and README, but I'm still having difficulty figuring out how to get oxide to import and launch KOreader. Maybe it's the draft config that I'm not setting up correctly -- I tried to remove the call= line as well as the term= line, but that also didn't help.

name=koreader
desc=EBook reader
call=/home/root/koreader/koreader.sh
term=:

Regardless, @Eeems, I appreciate the work! N.B. there's a small typo in the Usage section: "Oxide consists of siz applications", I think it should be six applications.

[Eeems]

Have you tried installing KOReader from toltec? It will automatically register the application for you using an oxide application registration file instead of draft.

Thanks for letting me know about the typo, I'll go fix it.

Got it, thanks!

It's probably safe to say that this can be closed.
