Releases · schuhumi/alpine_kindle

A ton of improvements have made it into this release, namely:

Features:

Chromium now supports Android-like scrolling (drag finger), back/forward/reload gestures, long press for context click, mobile user agent and is overall much faster (also with javascript)
Now featuring Mate Desktop Environment, which fixes automatic workspace resizing with Onboard
There's a right-click feature besides the up- and down-arrows in the bottom bar
Battery current display (This might not yet work on models other than PW3, please file a bug report!)
New set of default applications, that fit better on the screen in portrait mode
alpine.sh can now be used in multiple terminals at once, as it recognizes when Alpine is mounted already and doesn't do it again. BE CAREFUL to leave Alpine in the session that mounted it (thus the first one) as last, as this one will do the umounts as well (it will be the alpine service in most use cases)
Alpine now logs into /mnt/us/alpine.log automatically

Fixed Bugs:

Logging out now works properly and returns to the default kindle gui just fine
Used loops are now disassociated correctly, which means 1. They don't run out after 16 2. When you delete alpine.ext3 the corresponding storage space gets actually freed
Workspace resizes when Onboard shows/disappears

Known Bugs:

No onscreen keyboard on the lockscreen (don't lock! You can kill it through ssh though. Or reboot)
