Beware of latest nightlies for the Devo 6s! SOLVED

The last two nightlies (2016-1-27 and 2016-1-25) kill the L- switch, at least on my 6s...
All versions before that restore the function of the switch.

Done

BTW, it seems, that all nightlies from 2016 having that effect on my 6s...

Is there a way to get older ones, from last year?

Other than getting someone to make a test build, there's no way to to get older nightly builds. However, you can work around this issue by setting "extra-buttons=trim-right-up" in hardware.ini. That will re-enable the L- button, but leave you with the Right+ trim button showing up in the Trim settings and on the button monitor page.

This is a result of bitbucket.org/deviationtx/deviation/pull...devo6-extra-switches . Unfortunately, I'm recovering from surgery and can't really sit at my desk to work on it.

Since it only affects the 6S (I'm sure we'd have had earlier reports on at least the 7E if it broke that) and there's a work-around, I don't think we need to back out that change.

Any chance I can get a dev to make a test build with one change? I believe this is an off-by-one error in src/target/devo6/tx_buttons.c, in that line 80 isand should be
Can someone check the nightly emulator build? I suspect the bug won't show up there, so the fix will need to be tested on real hardware.

That did the trick, thanks a huge lot.

Very nice! I was contemplating on how to add a momentary switch to the devo6S, and the only way was to parallel it with one of the other, now it will have is own variable.

Thank you Mike

I just merged the one-line fix for this. It only affects the 6, and is known to work for the majority of users (those with either no extra inputs), so I did it sans review.

Please post if you can't remove that extra input and have it work!

I installed 2016-02-07, and it seems to have fixed the problem, no extra input needed anymore.

Can a moderator finally change the topic? Only Devo 6s seems to be affected by code changes.

A nothing saying topic is really irritating for all other forum visitors who want to install latest nightly-builds but use different Devo senders.

Doesn't need to be a Mod.

Sero is able to edit the topic header to something a little more diplomatic and descriptive, ....and less dramatic.

Better?
