Tab5 PC 1.4.1

Tab5 PC 1.4.1: PAUSE dims the PC's picture instead of the backlight. See CHANGELOG.md for the full list and the README for how to use it.

Changes

• PAUSE dims the PC's picture (to half its brightness) and holds it still: a text mode's cursor stops blinking. The side panels and the backlight stay at the brightness setting; until 1.4.0 the backlight went to a quarter of it, side panels included. The picture comes back in full when the PC goes on.

Firmware (one image, written at address 0x0, e.g. esptool --chip esp32p4 write-flash 0x0 tab5-pc-1.4.1-prev3.bin). Writing the image clears the saved settings: choose your Wi-Fi network again in the settings panel.

• tab5-pc-1.4.1-prev3.bin: for the Tab5 (its ESP32-P4 is revision v1.x: esptool prints "revision v1.x"). Tested.

Licenses and source (the firmware contains third-party software, some of it under the LGPL):

• tab5-pc-1.4.1-NOTICES.txt: the notices and license texts of everything in the firmware.
• tab5-pc-1.4.1-source.tar.gz: the corresponding source (this repository at v1.4.1, tiny386 and ESP-Hosted as patched, SeaBIOS, the BIOS images, the Arduino core as built); SOURCE.txt inside explains how to rebuild.
• SHA256SUMS

No SD card images are provided: the Tab5 downloads FreeDOS or Sprig Linux itself, or tools/make_sdcard.py prepares a card. See docs/DISTRIBUTION.md.
