If anyone has a copy of the emailer source btw (or gets one for review so has a download option ;)) then it would be nice to stick it up for ftp for all.
No one seems to have done this, and the offer Amstrad makes requires the sending off of £25 to them to cover admin and distribution costs rather than allowing a download of it. I did this a few days ago so will hopefully hear from them in the next week or so.
I've now received this and it's linked from:
http://www.earth.li/~noodles/hardware-e3.html
Interesting (to me at least) points:
* Camera source included and seems to present as a standard v4l device. * The keyboard driver is a module (not included) - there's a stub present presumably so basic init works. * The Pegasus USB networking module is compiled in; I've confirmed it initialises such a device, but see no network traffic (CONFIG_IP_PNP and friends are enabled in the .config provided, but I guess this may be from a debug tree?) * There's Belkin USB serial device support in the .config as well, but I can't see any output when I hook up such a device.
I've setup a list at:
http://www.earth.li/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/e3-hacking
for anyone who wants to discuss the hardware/software of the device.
What I'd really like to see is a dump of the flash from the device, in the hope that the startup scripts might do something with the ethernet. However I don't have the appropriate kit to be able to do this. Alternatively it looks like there's a serial console on ttyS0 (UART1 on the OMAP?), but I can't see any obvious pads where that's brought out to.
(Oh, and as a semi related aside; if anyone has GPL contacts in Linksys I'd be most interested to know about them - I'm completely failing to get hold of kernel source for the WMA11B, which runs 2.4.17-rmk3-cot1.)
