Hi Jamal,
Thanks for the bug report. It sounds like your Pearl is not responding
as expected to the special handshake.
The CVS version of bcharge currently contains code which was intended to
dynamically switch between the Pearl's modes, but has had little success
so far.
If you are using CVS anyway, you can go back to the 0.6 release with the
following command:
cvs update -r barry-0_6 tools/bcharge.cc
To get the latest again, use:
cvs update -PdA
Alternately, grab the 0.6 release tarball.
Please report whether the 0.6 bcharge.cc works for you or not, as from your
report, it appears that you did manage to make bcharge do what it's supposed
to, but your Pearl didn't respond. I'd like to make sure it's not just
a fluke with the current bcharge.cc.
Thanks,
- Chris
