Rockbox Project (M6)

markun

hi Guys

Sorry I haven't replied here for such a long time. I was busy with other stuff. It didn't look good for the Meizu port of rockbox, but since last week a rockbox developer has started work on the port again and is making good progress. Currently he only owns an M3 but he wants to buy an M6 as well.

I hope you guys haven't all given up hope and thrown away your players

Currently he's working on the drivers for radio, audio codec, backlight brightness (done) and the clock.

I'll try to keep you updated again

Alright, good to hear you haven't abandoned us yet.

Nice to hear the project is not dead. I've had an M6 TP for 3 years now and I haven't ever consider about selling or dropping it cause it's still a stable and cool player. (Maybe I'll do some experiment with programming on my Ubuntu, and try to help this project.)

There are a couple of good deals on M6's. You can get a 4 Gig SP for $35 and free shipping.

Nice, keep us updated then.
He should really consider a M6. I know the SP version is pretty rare to find, so he should defiantly grab one of these if he have the chance.

I guess I can't advertise in this forum...how about a PM?

hi markun,

thanks for the information. i was reading in the rockbox irc from time to time, but not last week
the last thing i knew (end of last year) was that denes got the m3 dispay driver working. at this point i thought a working display driver for the m6 is not very far... but i now there's a lot of other work to do, like the nand and usb.
i think the m6 would be a very good target to run rockbox on.
good luck for the developers
best
