Lingoox WIP (23-06-2009) (Dingoo OS)

Lingoox is a Linux for the Dingoo A320 and other JZ47xx based devices.

Ignacio Garcia (aka booboo) has been a bit silent recently, but here comes another interesting bit to read!

Quote:

Sorry for the slow updates. I’ve had to deal with lots of unexpected trouble during testing of dual-boot, plus school finished recently and thus my two daughters require more attention.

I appreciate your support very much and I know you’re all holding your breath for the dual-boot functionality, so, please excuse me for the delay.

This is what’s been done:

Dual boot code has been moved from U-Boot to the SPL: removes tiny delay introduced when booting the original firmware.

LCD support implemented both in SPL and U-Boot (both ILI9325 and ILI9331). The LCD now goes live immediately on bootup, which is great when loading linux because otherwise you would see a black LCD for a couple of seconds until the kernel framebuffer driver kicks in, and it is a bit confusing.
Implemented access to the SPL area (first eraseblock of NAND) in the linux kernel. This allows flashing the dual-boot binaries from linux.

Streamlined the flashing of the dual-boot binaries from linux.
This is what needs to be done:

Add a simple dialog that shows a disclaimer and asks for confirmation before flashing the dual-boot binaries.
That is very easy and I just need a couple of hours to do it, so I can assure there will be a release tomorrow or the day past tomorrow.

One final note: someone posted a comment pointing out that lingoox might sound a bit offensive in some contexts. If this is a problem we’re on time to change it… so please let me know.

PsJournal (23-06-2009) (PSP Application)

This program is a journal for the PSP. Its password protected so you can make sure other people dont read your entries. It has a writer and viewer and a browser.

The program has an intruder protection feature so if someone tries to break into the program it will deny them and then when you log in after you enter your password it will tell you if someone tried to break in, how many times they tried to break in, and at which time and date they tried to do so.
