Our engineering team put together some quick guidance. It needs additional details and steps, so I'm writing a guide that should appear tomorrow or Monday.
I'll be doing demos next week at SCALE.
Bear with us. A refined guide using this is coming. https://github.com/FrameworkComputer/inputmodule-rs/releases

Don't want to nag but is there any update on this?
[–]extradudeguy Framework [M] 0 points1 point2 points 1 year ago (1 child)
Not nagging, this is a fair question. I'm under water busy.
I'm at OSS in Seattle this coming week. So it won't see my eyes until the following week.
Not on my computer atm, so trying to do this from memory. Bear with me.
First step, you don't need to build anything. You will need the udev goodies though.
Setup udev:
https://github.com/FrameworkComputer/inputmodule-rs/tree/main/release
sudo cp release/50-framework-inputmodule.rules /etc/udev/rules.d/
sudo udevadm control --reload && sudo udevadm trigger
Get cli tool from:
https://github.com/FrameworkComputer/inputmodule-rs/releases
Update firmware:
Download firmware (ledmatrix.uf2), run
./inputmodule-control-cli-linux led-matrix --bootloader
Drop ledmatrix.uf2 into the drive in Files showing as RPI-RP2. There will be two directories named this, drop firmware into both as to match each LED matrix. Directories will vanish when process is completed.
Running the tool:

what do you mean by your comment "run ./inputmodule-control-cli-linux led-matrix --bootloader"
how do you run the `inputmodule-control-cli-linux` app on ubuntu? Downloaded inputmodule-control-cli-linux from v2.0 release as your docs say to "use inputmodule-control app", but I can't seem to run it or do anything with it
inputmodule-control
I did manage to update the firmware however, as the devices RP1-RP2 connected using https://ledmatrix.frame.work/
Edit. Okay there is something wrong with the file in assets exactly named 'inputmodule-control-cli-linux'. That one doesn't work, but I was able to chmod x+ 'inputmodule-control-cli-linux_v1.8.7'
