Pirates brought some loot... 🤔

@Daft_Freak you might like to take a look at https://github.com/antirez/zx2040 should be possible to getting running/ported to the tufty2350

@Daft_Freak that runs impressively smoothly - these things are pretty darn speedy!

[daft_freak@fosstodon.org]

@ahnlak It's a hacked up version of the RP2040 port so it's pretty optimised...

[daft_freak@fosstodon.org]

...and now I'm realising that without the default firmware, I have no way to turn the thing off... 🤔

@Daft_Freak the judicious use of a 20lb sledgehammer should work as an off switch

@Daft_Freak Hmm. We could probably do with a C boilerplate that includes that reset button shenanigans.

[daft_freak@fosstodon.org]

@rebelmike I probably need to figure out this sleep stuff for my own purposes anyway.

(Last night I just hacked out my init code and uh, pretended it was off)

@Daft_Freak Just been reading through the powman code that manages this.

Interesting that when "off" the RP2 is set to low power mode, but as far as I can see not using the LPOSC for an alarm timer. Wake always comes from a button press or interrupt from the RTC.

Looks like they were trying different options https://github.com/pimoroni/tufty2350/blob/main/modules/c/powman/powman.c#L141

Anyway - looks like power "off" would be accomplished by doing https://github.com/pimoroni/tufty2350/blob/main/modules/c/powman/powman.c#L398

[daft_freak@fosstodon.org]

@rebelmike Hmm, since the relevant code is in a constructor, just dropping that file in a project works as a quick fix.

@Daft_Freak thinking of finally ordering these now (obviously too late for FOSDEM...) you having fun with them? any preferences?
