Hardware acceleration is turned on by default in this repository for all Kobo devices.
4.2.8283 and beyond will be switching the framebuffer to 32 bit depth. Modifications/code that assume 16 bit will be broken. Kernels will be patched for each generation of device that the update goes out to.
My night mode repository above has also been updated to support 16bpp and 32bpp software inversion for older firmware, if needed.
I don't recommend manually applying 4.2.8283 if it's not available via the Kobo servers. It might work, but it most likely won't. |
