  yes, I have to implement the usb protocol, after that it should be a piece of cake. however I'm off for two weeks, I'll see what I can do after it...

  Thanks Gordon

  I wrote a quick blog post how to drive ws2801 led modules: http://neophob.com/2014/01/espruino-and-ws2801/

  The code is just a quick prototype, but I hope to find more time to create a firmware for PixelController LED Matrix software. If someone would like to contribute, be my guest!

  Cheers

  I was wondering what's the best way to send a data stream to the espruino, any hints about this? I first think using the USB serial functions together with a ring buffer might work. however this script:

  USB.setup({baudrate:115200});
  USB.onData(function(serial) {
    console.log("recieved "+serial.data);
  }); 
  console.log("MEEP");
  

  is a bit unhealthy and mess up the webide. at least I don't see any motd banner anymore and uploading a new "sketch" take ages...

  Thanks for your reply. Yes I saw the firmware URL once, then I went into the bootloader mode, then the URL disappeared...

  Hey guys

  I just recieved my board and start hacking. Here is a quick feedback:

  • its hard to find the firmware url to update the firmware. if you boot into bootloader mode, the firmware url field is left empty
    
  • if I connect the WebIDE there are two chrome processes (google chrome and google chrome helper) which both consume more than 100% cpu. OS: OSX v10.9.1, Chrome: Version 32.0.1700.77 and Version 32.0.1700.102
    
    
    
    

  the documentation about the firmware update process is a bit unclear ("the status in the top left will change and you can disconnect..."). which status? a led? or in the ide?
