The "enable symbols" option still doesn't remain selected after you restart the camera. But CDHK starts very quickly!

Did you use 'Reset Files' under the 'Visual Settings' menu?
If so this sets the symbol font file to no file selected so the symbols are disabled each time you restart.
Go into visual settings and reselect the icon_10.rbf symbol file then re-enable the symbols under the OSD settings.

Strangely, I wasn't able to reproduce this on d10. Tested
- reset files
- leave alt menu
- reboot camera, symbols are off
- enable symbols, symbols appear
Don't forget what the H stands for.

Curiously strange indeed. Reselecting the icon_10.rbf symbol file fixed the problem. Thanks Phil!

Try:
- reset files
- leave alt menu
- reboot camera, symbols are off
- enable symbols, symbols appear
- reboot camera again - do you still have symbols?

i solved it using cardtricks on a pc to ake my 4Gb card bootable.. thanks for the info!!
EDIT:  so are you using a single paritiion now ?  if so - dual partiitions on the SD940 are still a TBD

I can now confirm that dual partitions on 1.03b works using an 8Gb card. Partitioned the card to 2 partitions using SDM. Made the first 2Mb partition bootable and put the bootdisk.bin there. The second <8Gb partition contained the CDHK directory. After powering up, there was a brief hang, perhaps it crashed, but afterwards CDHK booted normally. When pictures are taken, they are stored on the 2nd partition as expected. DNG/RAW saves there too. "Swap partitions" using the camera behaves as expected.

However, pressing the 'play' button to turn on the camera in playback mode makes the canon startup screen to be displayed, then the camera shuts off (automatically as if it crashed). (Pressing the power button initially had this same effect, but I could not reproduce it after a couple of power on/off cycles, and the camera started normally).
EDIT: The behavior is sporadic; sometimes it starts in playback mode fine, other times it just shuts down.

Common problem with recent CHDK releases (and maybe old ones ?) - this does not appear to be SD940 specific.

Anyone interested in CHDK for firmware 1.01A should send me a personal message with their real email address.  If I can get a couple of people with that firmware interested and I have contact information for them,  I will consider doing the port.  Its too much work doing the port without some more permanent way to contact those interested.

How would you edit the user menu? The User Manual says to press the "+/- button or the equivalent button on the camera" when User Menu is set to edit. The half-shoot button doesn't do it either.

Hi, have a 103c and have downloaded and installed the ixus120_sd940-103c-0.9.9-1118_BETA code successfully.  I tried to install the basic program I currently run on an SD400's - and it fails early.  
If I get_prop 0,x which is camera mode - it always reads 0 no matter where the switches are set.  I switched to x=get_mode - and I always get 1 no matter how the switches are set.

as in:

:TT
x=get_mode
print " camera mode is ",x
if x=1 then goto "DM"
print " Camera MODE error",x
sleep 250
goto "TT"
:DM
set_prop 6 0
set_prop 8 1
set_prop 9 0
print " eval mode",0

I shows x is one, appears to jump to :DM, then crashes somewhere before the print.

My question is - should code like this run in this beta or do I have some problem specific to my setup?

tnx
mgg
