Re: Color modified v0.29.2 x6100_gui and sdcard.img
Great stuff. It's my go to. Thanks! One question though, is there a difference between 29.2 and 2025.02? Getting a bit confused by all the FW variations.

Re: Buildroot 2024.11 for R1CBU/R2RFE firmware
Maybe 0.29.2.1 and show the change log
That’s my personal preference – But hey – it works ?

That's how it always has been as far as i can tell. This is not a new version as it's exactly the same as v0.29.2. It does not have any new features or bug fixes. I didn't change anything "under the

Re: x6100 Com ports not seen on my PCs.
I have only USB-C port on my laptop and a usb c-c cable does not work, you need in such a case to use a usb c-b cable and then an adapter b to c. Don't ask me why.

Re: x6100 Com ports not seen on my PCs.
Connection to the PC is done using the DEV-port. The cable needs to be a USB-C (x6100-DEV) to USB-A (PC) type that serves more than just the power signals. Take the one that came with the X6100.
