 201 OpenPandora Main OSCoreBug ReportHigh PND apps still use memory after they've quit Closed
100%
Release 1 (Zaxxon) Task Description After running and quitting a PND app, not all of the used memory is being freed. This eats more and more memory over time. Just run 5 or 6 apps and you only have half of the memory left. Sounds like either aufs or unionfs don't free the memory after unmounting. This has been reported with HF4 and still is the case with HF5 Beta 2 -- downgraded to 'Researching' and 'Normal' priority until confirmed and details found

123OpenPandora Main OSBase OSFeature RequestLowSuggestions for the Pandora-ButtonNew
0%
All Task Description My suggestion instead of a full menu, would be to have a tiny overlay over the current running application which allows you to: - relogin (to close all running applications) - quit (stop the active application) - shows the last notifications / toaster messages which you missed while being in a fullscreen app. - possibly even something like plugin support or icons to check out the wifi-strength etc. from fullscreen apps. Implementation wise this could possibly be done using - a topmost window and the same content rendered in screenspace in a GLES hook (which should draw over most applications) or - one of the DSS2 overlays maybe It's definitely something to consider as it was requested on the forums a few times (~"xbox like menu in games").
 2 OpenPandora Main OSCoreBug ReportHigh pndnotifyd Closed
100%
All Task Description pndnotifyd needs to be restarted before it works (tested in image 2009-12-21) This can manually be fixed by installing two packages: http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/unstable/feed/armv7a/base/sessreg_1.0.4-r0.2_armv7a.ipk http://djwillis.openpandora.org/pandora/packages/pandora-libpnd_1.0-r12.5_armv7a.ipk And adding to lines to slim.conf: sessionstart_cmd /usr/bin/sessreg -a -l $DISPLAY %user sessionstop_cmd /usr/bin/sessreg -d -l $DISPLAY %user

 23 OpenPandora Main OSCoreBug ReportVery Low slim-init doesn't pass session to .xinitrc Closed
100%
All Task Description It seems like slim doesn't send the session to .xinitrc I included an "echo $1 >> ~/debug.txt" in the script and the file was completely empty. That's why it always starts xfce4, not pmenu: The fallback is startxfce4.
 24 OpenPandora Main OSCoreBug ReportLow op_menu.sh not working Closed
100%
All Task Description Reports: xfce4-appfinder: Cannot open display: . Fix might be (according to vimacs): Change those two similar looking lines to: sudo -u $xfceuser DISPLAY=:0.0 xfce4-appfinder and: pidlist=$(pstree -lpA | grep pnd_run.sh | sed -ne 's/.*-\(.*\)(\([0-9]\+\))/\2\n \1/p' | DISPLAY=:0.0 zenity --list --multiple --column "pid" --column "name" --title "kill" --text "which apps should be killed" | sed 's/|/\n/') Needs to be checked.

100%
All Task Description Though pndevmapperd runs after booting (ps -A lists it), it doesn't react to anything. EDIT: It DOES do something. It creates defunct op_menu.sh with each press. When you run it manually from the terminal, the menu button works find and shows the appfinder.

 31 OpenPandora Main OSCoreBug ReportHigh X11 Crashing with omapfb Closed
100%
All Task Description Cleaned up a bit. * Mouse is inverted if you run SDL Games from the console. * Mouse is not properly calibrated when you run SDL Games under X fullscreen. Fixed with notaz patch that also fixes the X11-Crash with omapfb (see below) Regarding the X11-Crash when using SDL-Fullscreen-Apps together with omapfb: notaz nailed down the problem: It's actually xf86-input-tslib's fault- omapfb only acted as catalizator here, causing SDL to use different code path and call different X functions. His patch also almost increases the touchscreen problem (see above): It runs perfect for games in 800x480. However, on small issue is left on apps with lower resolution which use their own mouse cursor: As soon as you move the mouse outside of the game resolution (i.e. SuperTux runs 640x480), the mouse cursor stops at the end of the virtual screen and you have an offset. This only seems to happen when the game uses it's own mouse cursor. If you go to the level editor of SuperTux and leave, the normal X cursor appears and the problem doesn't occur anymore. So this is probably something that needs to be fixed in the game, not in the driver. A compiled version (for testing): http://notaz.gp2x.de/tmp/tslib_drv.so --- needs to be copied here: /usr/lib/xorg/modules/input/tslib_drv.so
 32 OpenPandora Main OSCoreBug ReportLow pndnotifyd: Crawling through directories it shouldn't i ...Closed
100%
All Task Description My current configuration is: Rootfs on first SD Card, 2nd partition. If I put my WIZ SD Card with tons of files into the second SD Slot while booting, pndnotifyd eats up about 95% of CPU time. After about 8 - 9 minutes, it stopped eating the CPU and the system is working normally. This doesn't happen when I put in the card when XFCE4 is already running. Using LSOF, I can confirm it's crawling where it shouldn't: pndnotify 1825 root 6r DIR 179,9 1441792 62488 /media/mmcblk1p1/roms/c64/Tapes Could it be that on first initialization it hasn't loaded the config and crawls through the whole SD Card? On a side note: I got 44700 files on that SD Card... so if it needs about 8 minutes, that does mean it can do over 5000 files a minute!
 33 OpenPandora Main OSCoreBug ReportLow mmcqd eating lots of CPU power when writing Closed
100%
All Task Description EDIT: Tried a remount with noatime and this seemed to work very well. CPU usage when writing still goes higher, but not as high as before. Very common problem, seems to happen on all systems (just do a google search for mmcqd). Just run SuperTux, wait about 10 seconds at the title screen and it will hang for a few seconds (while mmcqd goes up). Same problem as on the GP2X where we also had hangs occuring. I wonder if there's something that can be done here? Some suggest to change mmcqd priority. Some other sites do try to remove features of mmcqd. Another option is to mount async (like on the gp2x). As the Pandora usually isn't switched off the hard way but should be shutdown properly, this could be a good solution. That would mean that our suspend mode needs to call sync before shutting down. Maybe pnd_run.sh could also run sync after a game quit? Here are some interesting reads that might help us: http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-omap@vger.kernel.org/msg16345.html : "wait_for_completion is blocking call. Please check 'omap_mmc_request'" http://www.mail-archive.com/davinci-linux-open-source@linux.davincidsp.com/msg08732.html - He disables some stuff in mmcqd which lowers CPU usage.

 37 OpenPandora Main OSCoreBug ReportVery Low Game doesn't start in No-X mode (pnd_run.sh) (Permissi ...Closed
100%
All Task Description EDIT: Some more information from notaz: it's failing because it can't find controlling tty (/dev/tty is a "virtual" gateway device, so setting permissions gave no effect) do "ps ax" on your desktop and it has the tty column so SDL fbdev driver wants to get a real tty fo be able to read keys So we need to somehow give it a real tty? yeah, but I don't know why as pnd start from X and that gives virtual tty *don't know how* maybe something can be done using openvt, chvt and similar tools ------ What happens if you run a script in no-X mode: 1. It stops slim 2. It mounts all the directories as needed (works fine). 3. It DOES NOT start the app 4. It unmounts all the directories 5. It restarts slim (and therefore X) I can confirm the path is correctly and the filesystem is mounted there (did an ls -l). I can also confirm the game is working fine, as the same PND does work within X if I run it from the terminal using pnd_run supertux_noX.pnd So it looks like the line that actually executes the game does work when run in X, but not when run outside of X. Maybe it tries to execute the game on the screen where the script is actually started (X) and therefore can't run it as X is not running anymore? The line working in X-mode but not working in non-X-Mode: LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/mnt/utmp/$BASENAME ./$EXENAME $ARGUMENTS The game I tried was SuperTux (SDL-Game) with a no-X=1 parameter in the PXML.
 38 OpenPandora Main OSCoreBug ReportHigh ALSA crashes every so often Closed
100%
All Task Description EDIT: Doesn't seem to be crashing. Looks like the amp hasn't been setup properly. There is a fix by notaz: http://notaz.gp2x.de/tmp/uImage Use that with the latest image (Feb 13th) to test it out. ALSA crashes pretty often. Not sure, but I think it does this when something is eating up a lot of CPU. ALSA starts to spit out buffer_underrun errors and occasionally crashes with an input/output error. Then no sound will come from an SDL app. You can reinitialize it by playing a song with XMMS.
 39 OpenPandora Main OSCoreBug ReportHigh file doesn't work (missing magic files) in image from F ...Closed
100%
All Task Description It seems there's a bug in the latest package "file 5.04-r0.5" of the Angström repository: It's missing the magic files and therefore doesn't work. Unfortunately, pnd_run.sh depends on it and therefore it breaks the PND-system. Installing an older stable version (http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/feeds/2008/ipk/glibc/armv7a/base/file_4.21-r0.1_armv7a.ipk) does make it work again. First appeared on image from Feb 13th, not fixed in image from Feb 22nd yet.

All Task Description I (EvilDragon) created a small script where you can reselect the default GUI and enable / disable autologin. Works fine so far, except for that the sed to /etc/slim.conf needs root access. I have no idea how to make sudo in this script work without asking for a password. If anyone could help me there, I'll be happy :)

All Task Description Some ports (like SMW, VICE, etc.) stopped working because libpng is missing from the current images. Installing it does fix that problem. http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/unstable/feed/armv7a/base/libpng_1.2.42-r2.0.5_armv7a.ipk

100%
All Task Description Since about mid January, the Openpandora-Startmenu-Button doesn't resize when the "Show Title" is enabled. Therefore, you only see parts of the "OpenPandora"-Title and no icon. Disabling the title shows the icon. I have no idea how to resize it and why this happened (the theme hasn't been changed as far as I know)
 45 OpenPandora Main OSCoreBug ReportMedium libpnd: Using German descriptions from PND files Closed

All Task Description The mediaplayer only does show the ~/-Directory. Ideally, it should present SD1 / SD2 / Users Home.
 47 OpenPandora Main OSCoreTo Do (Reminder)Medium evmapperd: Blinking LED and charging control Closed
100%
All Task Description evmapperd should start blinking when the power is getting low. Ideally, the blinking speed should increase with decreasing battery power and should start maybe at 5% as default (would be nice to have the settings configurable by the user). As soon as the AC adaptor is connected, blinking should stop. When the battery power is at 0% it should immediately shutdown and poweroff (NOT to be overridden by the user!) Aditionally, we should have some charging control (or would it be better using a different daemon for that?) Here's part of my conversation with MichaelW: when the charge current was below a threshold, it would reduce the charger input current allowed and take it down to about what the system needs it would be an active thing constantly sampling the system and constantly updating the input current to match the system the alternative is that when the battery is full, the charge path is cut off until the battery drops down a bit, maybe 90%
 49 OpenPandora Main OSCoreTo Do (Reminder)Low Change some of our scripts into internal PNDs Closed

All Task Description There's no way yet to shutdown (poweroff) or logout from pmenu yet.
 51 OpenPandora Main OSCoreBug ReportMedium xfce4-battery-plugin: No time and no AC working Closed
100%
All Task Description xfce4-battery-plugin currently displays the % of the battery, but it doesn't show the time (or does it need a while to figure out how much time is left?) Also, it doesn't realize when AC is connected. I did do a sudo poweroff when power was below 5%. When it first powered down, I connected the AC and restarted. The plugin immediately powered down again, as it didn't know AC was connected.
 52 OpenPandora Main OSCoreBug ReportMedium X11-Touchscreen: Fullscreen-Issue when the mouse cursor ...Closed
100%
All Task Description There are some issues with the touchscreen using X11 and fullscreen apps which use their own mouse cursor. The mouse cursor tends to shift around when it comes outside of the normal screen area. This can be seen with SuperTux: The mouse cursor is a penguin. Move that close to the edge of the screen and it jumps around and then is shifted to the real touchscreen. Thanks to a bug in SuperTux, this can also be fixed: Go into the Level Editor and go back into the main menu: On top of the penguin mouse cursor is the normal X mouse cursor, which will not Shift anymore. Aditionally, I tried the Hatari Menu (running on 640x480) and AlephOne (running on 800x480). Both use the standard X mouse cursor and both are working fine. I guess that the mouse cursor gets confused if it has negative values.
