* Added TGR Alice keyboard support This keyboard uses ps2avrGB firmware, so I used the same matrix Bootmapper Client was using and was able to flash it appropriately. * Refactor alice to use QMK core * Fixed markdown line breaks on TGR Alice readme

ps2avrGB keyboard firmware
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
This keyboard uses the port of the QMK firmware for boards that are based on the
|
|
ps2avrGB firmware.
|
|
|
|
Note that this is a complete replacement for the firmware, so you won't be
|
|
using Bootmapper Client to change any keyboard settings, since not all the
|
|
USB report options are supported.
|
|
|
|
## Installing
|
|
|
|
First, install the requirements. These commands are for OSX, but all you
|
|
need is the AVR toolchain and `bootloadHID` for flashing:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ brew cask install crosspack-avr
|
|
$ brew install --HEAD https://raw.githubusercontent.com/robertgzr/homebrew-tap/master/bootloadhid.rb
|
|
$ pip install pyusb
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then, with the keyboard plugged in, simply run this command from the
|
|
`qmk_firmware` directory:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ make alice
|
|
$ bootloadHID -r alice_default.hex
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Setting the board to bootloader mode
|
|
|
|
Hold the ESC key (the one before the 1! key, in case you remaped it).
|
|
|
|
## Troubleshooting
|
|
|
|
From my experience, it's really hard to brick these boards. But these
|
|
tricks have been useful when it got stuck in a weird scenario.
|
|
|
|
1. Try plugging the board in while holding the bootloader key. This will force
|
|
it to boot only the bootloader without loading the firmware. Once this is
|
|
done, just reflash the board with the original firmware.
|
|
2. Sometimes USB hubs can act weird, so try connecting the board directly
|
|
to your computer or plugging/unplugging the USB hub.
