The screenshot is blank, obviously dumping a different buffer than koreader is using. I need to get hold of a camera to take an external shot.
It looks to me as if something like the pixel depth (bpp) or so is wrong. Like all pixels are extremely smeared out along the lines. The log file says "xres=600 yres=800 bpp=4 vdepth=8". The first three are as I would assume (600x800, 16 shades of grey). I do not know what vdepth is and whether this is correct. Jens |

I got the same answer for PB Lux 2 with 5.2: some distored lines, unreadable.

Yes, it looks like the pitch size (bytes for a single line) is detected wrong, more precisely pitch size is less than actual one used in the framebuffer device otherwise the application would very likely have already crashed.
So you can just hack this line: https://github.com/koreader/koreader..._linux.lua#L64 in the "koreader/ffi/framebuffer_linux.lua" file at line 64: Code:
elseif vinfo.bits_per_pixel == 8 then self.bb = BB.new(vinfo.xres, vinfo.yres, BB.TYPE_BB8, self.data, finfo.line_length) else Code:
elseif vinfo.bits_per_pixel == 8 then self.bb = BB.new(vinfo.xres, vinfo.yres, BB.TYPE_BB8, self.data, finfo.line_length + 4) else Code:
elseif vinfo.bits_per_pixel == 8 then self.bb = BB.new(vinfo.xres, vinfo.yres, BB.TYPE_BB8, self.data, finfo.line_length + 8) else |

OK, i've tested version v2014.11-39 on PocketBook InkPad 840 and it works very well. And there is even a small surprise: traslation in Polish - great! No problems with touch control anymore, everything is fast and smooth - just can't belive that
Some comments: - I think there should be option to disable/reduce momentum on scroll - sometimes i've encountered an effect like it starts accelerating and scrolling too much (after releasing finger) and it becomes uncontrollable. - I don't know if any multitouch controls are implemented, but i can't get any to work. When i'm trying the only effect is text marking or screen repaint. - And i don't know how to use pdf multi-column reading with koreader. - I have installed Georgia EInk fonts in default font directory. Is it possible for koreder to use fonts installed this way? For now koreader becomes my no.1 for reading pdfs Last edited by wirtold; 01-19-2015 at 05:55 PM. |

@chrox You should use the older 1.1a SDK release to build for the version 4 and earlier firmware devices. The latest SDK release seems to be just for version 5.

Hm, it just might be no 8bit grayscale framebuffer for this device? Strange thing, this.

And you can also try to change finfo.line_length with finfo.smem_len at that line. Probably smem_len could be more accurate that line_length in PocketBook. |

It's probably true when you use the PocketBook SDK heavily because of the incompatibility. But in Koreader we only use a minimum subset of the API to make Koreader to run. And the used APIs are only relevant to input events handling since we cannot read the /dev/input/event* directly. So we spawn a separate process running InkViewMain main loop and redirect all input events to koreader side via the event handler. Screen output is written to the /dev/fb directly in Koreader so we don't use any GUI facility provided by PocketBook thus the latest SDK should be enough to build Koreader for all recent PockeBook devices.

2. You can use two fingers swipe right together to show the Table of Content. And use two fingers swipe left together to show the Bookmark window. More multi-touch gestures are documented in the project wiki linked in the first post. 3. Multi-column reading in PDF is only enabled when reflowing is ON. 4. Probably not, you need to copy fonts into applications/koreader/fonts directory in order to use them in Koreader. |

I still suspect it's only a pitch size problem. I can still see the mini progress bar at the bottom of the screen in the screenshot. Since the pitch size is smaller than actual one there is additional space under the minibar.

Likewise, using smem_len gives a segfault. |
