I was just about to ask the same question about the a/e affix, no idea what that is. Can we verify what the latest firmware version is (and where it can be downloaded)?

Could it be a regional thing? Maybe the ixus and elph have slightly different firmwares. Which is yours?

Also, I'd like to thank you for your work mweerden, it's very much appreciated.

i tried it with 1.01E, but it doesnt work. is there a chance to make it work?

Sorry, I should probably have noted that the port is for 1.01a only at the moment.

Is this 1.01e a new firmware version or did you mean 1.00e? In the first case it would nice if you (or someone else) can put it on the wiki. In the second case I would like to know whether there is a reason to not upgrade to 1.01a. (Not that I'm telling you to upgrade; I'm just curious.)

In any case, making the port for a different firmware might be easy if the differences are minimal, otherwise it will take a while longer. I can have a look at it if nobody else takes on the challenge, but I think we should first focus on getting a beta version for 1.01a. This probably avoids a lot of duplicate work when porting other versions.

I cannot get chdk to work.  the firm update menue does not show up :(

Hmm... can you check your firmware version? I wouldn't know what else could cause it.
I updated the firmware to the 1.01a and it worked fine.  after that the update firm menu still showed up  when I put the chdk files on it did not show up

Assuming the page linked to on the wiki is for all firmware updates I would expect that the latest is the one on there. I haven't checked it, but I suspect that it is 1.01a.

I doubt it, but I'm also new to this business. If you mean me with "yours": I have 1.01a.

Strange stuff. Can you make sure you have the CHDK PS.FI2 in the root (this is not where the pictures are stored) of your SD card? Also make sure that the firmware update is completely removed from the card. I just checked it myself - to be sure I formatted my card and downloaded the zip from this thread - and it works fine. I don't think there should be any problems with this part of the port.

@mweerden: Congrats for your port !

@cannonhacker97:
The camera must powered on in playback mode to show the "Firmware Update" menu item;
powering on or switching to record mode disables this menu item.

I'm new to CHDK. Some weeks ago I bought a Canon SD880 IS. The firmware version is 1.02B and by using ver.req I get the following data:

Canon PowerShot SD880 IS
P-ID: 3196 NT D
Firmware Ver GM1.02B
NoError
Jan 9 2009 14:55:54

When I'm trying to install/run the current version of CHDK - the display turns black and I have to take out the battery to be able to turn the camera on again. I can't find the 1.02B firmware version on Canon's webpage and therefore don't want to take the risk of 'downgrading' the firmware with a possibility to get stuck there with something not working.

I can provide a firmware dump of the 1.02B version if that's of any help (and someone can tell me how to do it?)

Thanks for the work done so far! Looking forward to see CHDK running on my camera!

Mostly works for me. One thing that doesn't seem to work is zoom during video recording. Not complaining, just letting everybody know.
Thanks again, mweerden.
