@pingflood , there are still a handful of things for which the source code is not released like recovery menu and I think the gmenunx binary.

I would like to request that they are released even if they are WIP zip, as long as we can fix the buildroot so that make can create an image.

Poligraf commented 2 years ago

@jbanes as well, do you have access to the /usr/bin/retrofw binary source ? https://github.com/retrofw/buildroot/tree/WIP/board/retrofw/package/recovery

pingflood commented 2 years ago

Done: https://github.com/retrofw/recovery . gmenunx repository is in sync with the last binary I was using previously.

Poligraf commented 2 years ago

Poligraf commented 2 years ago

@pingflood not sure why I cant https://github.com/retrofw/retrofw.github.io but oh well, worst case scenario will create a new wiki page.

Thanks for your help, here to hoping one day you return (even if it just to say hi)

pingflood commented 2 years ago

You can't what? Build or access? :thinking:

Edit: I just checked the repository status and indeed it's marked as public.

Oops sorry, typed the url wrong I can not edit https://github.com/retrofw/retrofw.github.io since my link for editing has expired.

I am still of the opinion that the firmware should live on for a bit longer and get some bumps (and a cleaner newer buildroot at least).

For example I would like to release

https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1TyrV90kvCoQYWfCA35ZVFvGZNKyVJNcf to https://github.com/retrofw/retrofw.github.io as 2.3 release candidate.

Downgrading gmenunx fixes the headphone issue and the replicable crashes when running gmenunx WIP build.

The link granting me access has expired.

Oh, I see..

I wasn't aware of this restriction. I'll change your role in the RetroFW org, but I'm summoning @jbanes and @retromsx here so they can review the permissions, as I don't have enough knowledge to manage this kind of thing :sweat_smile:

I'll close this issue for now :wink:
