oh I see. FYI, the color tables for playback and shoot modes are different; that is 0x44 is gray in one mode, and green in another.
True.  There was a big discussion about that a couple of times here in the forum - you can probably search for it.   The best way to handle it is to pick colors from the first two rows in the color map.  Those are the same in both modes.

Hello
Is chdk working on 1.03b?
I have Ixus 120IS with fw GM1.03B + 4GB Patriot SDHC, but ixus120_sd940-103b-0.9.9-1067-full doesn't start
What I made:
1. Downloaded zip file and unpacked it
2. Formated SDHC card to one FAT16 partition and made it bootable
3. Putted files from zip file to card (DISKBOOT.BIN, vers.req, CHDK)
4. Turned SDHC card to LOCKED
5. Power on camera with this card.

Nothing happens, long-pressing DISP. button only change brightness. Im I missing something?

Card was formated on Fedora 14 with gpared 0.7.0. Sorry for bad English :)

The card must also be CHDK-bootable --> http://chdk.wikia.com/wiki/Bootable_SD_card

You could also start CHDK manually:

1) expand ALL files & folders from the package to the root of your SD card
    (the file PS.FI2 is essential for manual loading)
2) power on your camera with the PLAY button [>]
3) enter the Canon menu, scroll down & select "Firmware Update", then confirm...

Note that the .zip archive for 1.03b does not contain the PS.FI2 file.

Yes - people are successfully booting the 1.03b firmware using a bootable card and the card lock switch.  There is a lot of detail on the wiki and this forum on how to do that so I won't try to repeat it here.

That's it. I missed
Code: (bash) [Select]
echo -n BOOTDISK | dd bs=1 count=8 seek=64 of=/dev/sdx1 Now it works like a charm. So you have another happy CHDK user. Thanks all of you for help and hard work :)

Just be aware that the 1.03B version is still very new and mostly untested.  Many things will not work quite correctly yet.

[1.03b]
Shutter and focus overrides don't seem to work yet either.

Some more minor things not high on priority:
1. Are the canon image compression, recording pixels, and number of images left in the shoot supposed to disappear after a few seconds? It does.
2. When "enable symbols" is activated, the setting is not saved and is deactivated after reboot.
3. Is not opening the lens and flashing the autofocus LED after pressing the power button intentional?

To open the lens on power up,  press and hold the power button on top (rather than just briefly press it).

The autofocus LED was just something I put in there so that during the development process I could be sure CHDK was booting from the SD card even if it crashed before putting the logo up.  I suppose at some point I'll take it out.

Absolute newbie here. I have a whole two hours experience here with CHDK. I have just purchased an IXUS 120 IS, but didn't know that I should have checked the current firmware version. I figured this out after trying 1.03C with no success in upgrading.

I have 1.03B.

I was momentarily hopeful when I found this thread for 1.03B, but unfortunately, my camera doesn't even give me the option to upgrade the firmware.

Not sure where to go from here.

Right now I'm thinking of returning this camera and trying another one, checking the firmware at the shop.

Any ideas??
