as first discussed here #11908. This PR brings the book map to non-touch devices that useDPadAsActionKeys().
Book map can be accessed from the menu or by using the following shortcut: ScreenKB + Down or Shift + Down depending on whether you use a K4 device or a kindle with keyboard respectively.
Inside the book map, a user can toggle the hamburger menu by pressing the Menu key and make any adjustment from there. ScreenKB (or Shift) + Up/Down allows it to scroll and Page turn buttons to move by whole full page turns. Back key allows user to exit the map.
K4 is ergonomically designed to be held with one hand (one's hand wrapped around the back and both thumb and middle finger on either PgFwd buttons).
This PR allows users to individually invert left and right page turners such that it can be operated just with one hand. It also closes#9350
Not sure if there are any other devices with two sets of page turn buttons, so currently limited to kindle, excluding kindle Voyage, but could be added too, albeit with some gymnastics.
This will make the stroke-based Chinese character keyboard compatible with Japanese kanji stroke order, with an increase of the data file by about 80kb.
This could be a temporary solution for Japanese users to type kanji before better methods are implemented.
The stroke order data are extracted from this repo: https://github.com/KanjiVG/kanjivg.
Menu key support for some widgets. would have closed#11783 and #6463 (cumulative with @comphilip's fixes)
It fixes a problem where some virtual keys were not available for non-touch users. closes#11862
Also, adds keyboard settings to non-touch devices. closes#11934
1. Non-Kindle-specific `hasFiveWay` behavior is changed to `hasDPad and useDPadAsActionKeys`. For now they remain Kindle-specific in practice, unless one sets `useDPadAsActionKeys = yes` in a user patch.
2. With that disambiguation out of the way, `hasFiveWay` itself is further disambiguated into `hasScreenKB` and `hasSymKey`, as per the actual property being used, rather than something that tends to correlate with it. (It needn't be Kindle-specific per se, but non-Kindle devices have equivalent shortcuts with for example `Shift`.)
Running the emulator with `DISABLE_TOUCH=1` will set `hasSymKey = yes`, which can be tested with right shift.
Closes#11887.
* Kobo: Drop a bunch of if ladder crap and switch to auto-detection of input devices via fbink_input
* Kindle: Drop an even larger bundle of crap to do the same ;p. (re: #11392)
* ExternalKeyboard: Switch to fbink_input to whitelist keyboards instead of the manual parsing of caps via its FindKeyboard class
* Input: Extended open/close wrappers to handle logging & tracking of dupe open/close calls.
* Support the Clara B&W, Clara Colour & Libra Colour
* Enable HW dithering on *all* the Kobo MTK devices
* Enforce 32bpp instead of 8bpp for Kobo devices with a color panel (the driver doesn't actually support 8bpp anyway)
* Enable standby support on MTK (whenever possible, i.e., not when plugged in, as that is horribly, horribly broken).
* Enforce the dedicated "color" waveform mode for image content in ScreenSaver, ImageViewer & Reader.
* Fix charging LED support on MTK
* Tweak the frontlight ramp on MTK + LM3630 so that it actually ramps smoothly
Device:getDefaultRoute parses /proc/net/route and converts the hex
addresses to textual IP addresses, but in `isOnline` we don't care what
address the gateway actually has, we only care about whether we have a
default route into the Internet.
This provides a simpler alternative that does the equivalent of
"ip route get 203.0.113.1 || ip route get 2001:db8::1" (note that it
does support IPv6-only connectivity as opposed to
Device:getDefaultRoute) and returns true if we have a route.
Inspired by https://github.com/pavel-odintsov/get_default_outgoing_ip_linux
Doing the `isOnline` check (`socket.dns.toip("dns.msftncsi.com")`)
without having internet connectivity (`!isConnected`) results in the
`isOnline` check never succeeding again even if connectivity is later
acquired. This is most likely caused by /etc/resolv.conf only being
parsed once - https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=984, an
issue that was fixed in glibc 2.26 (PocketBook firmware U740.6.8.2461
has glibc 2.23).
This fix works around the problem by checking if we have a default route
first before even attempting to check `isOnline`. If we don't, then
`isOnline` is (almost) guaranteed to fail anyway.
We could alternatively check `isConnected` instead, but that only checks
wireless connectivity on many platforms, and we could have internet
access via USBNet instead. Checking for the default route via any
interface should work reliably for both wireless and USBNet
connectivity.
Another alternative fix is to add a fallback nameserver to
/etc/resolv.conf like we do for the Kobo platform [1]. Unfortunately,
this fix would not work in the following (rather common) scenario:
1. PocketBook boots, connects to WiFi
2. KOReader starts, /etc/resolv.conf looks all right, no fallback needed
3. PocketBook goes to sleep, disconnects from WiFi, clears resolv.conf
4. PocketBook wakes up, stays disconnected
5. KOReader user does a Wikipedia lookup, networking freezes
