New firmware for the Swissmicros DM15L

[Johnp_g]

Hello,

I'm not sure what the problem is that Jean-Charles is having changing between Swiss Micros V33 and this beta firmware. I flashed V33 (M1B version) yesterday morning, then flashed the (at that time) current beta 241217, then went back to V33 for a longer test and now I've just flashed the latest beta 241221. No problems encountered going in either direction.

I use the Swiss Micros Windows "Firmware Update" tool, as I've been using a Windows laptop for work related things recently, and not my usual Linux machines, and perhaps this is part of the issue?

I notice that when I use the SM Update tool and load their V33 firmware into it prior to flashing to the calculator that it reports:

"Warning: data not aligned to 32 bits, padded (length was E749, now E74C)"

which doesn't appear for any other firmware (official or 3rd party) that I've flashed. V33 loads and runs correctly despite this warning though.

Reverting to your firmware is behaving "normally" when using the SM updater even when the DM15L is running SM V33 (M1B variant).
