260CoreBug ReportMediumLow Power Mode: Input (keyboard, nub) still taken. Appl...Unconfirmed
0%
Task Description This is the related documentation: http://pandorawiki.org/Power_modes#Low_Power (Please update accordingly as part of the issue resolution) FROM MY USER EXPERIENCE: If you put the Pandora into Low Power Mode, then press some keys, and then wake the Pandora back into Normal Mode, your input (both keys and nubs, haven't tried with USB input yet) seem to have triggered something while the device was in Low Power Mode! What does really happen in Low Power Mode concerning execution and input? a) Input is received AND triggers as application execution continues or b) Kernel/driver queues the input signals into a buffer, and executes them on wake? If supposition a) or b) is true, then this would be one more reason to properly implement:  FS#259  OBSERVANCE EXAMPLE 1: 1) Start MiniMenu. Mentally note down your active tab. 2) Put Pandora to Low Power Mode. 3) Press shoulder button R once. 4) Wake Pandora to Normal Mode. You are now one tab to the right of where you left. Input must have been caught in Low Power Mode, but wether execution of it happened while Low Power Mode or later after wake in Normal power Mode is unclear. OBSERVANCE EXAMPLE 2: 1) Start gedit (a text editor). Insert the digit "1". 2) Put Pandora to Low Power Mode. 3) Press: CTRL-N 2 CTRL-N 3 CTRL-N 4. (Without the spaces) 4) Wake Pandora to Normal Mode. 5) For a fraction of a second you see the tabs building up. Either the input was really received AND executed while Low Power Mode and what you see is just a delayed window manager refreshment, or the input was queued in Low Power Mode, and only executed on wake.
261CoreTo Do (Reminder)HighOverview of all current KEYBOARD INPUT related issuesUnconfirmed
0%
Task Description Built-in keyboard input is a central thing on the Pandora, as it concerns almost all user interfaced apps! I realized that I myself and also others submitted quite many reports concerning this issue. Hence this meta issue is intended as an overview/accumulation/aid for those devs who are willing to overwork the whole issue. If you realize new related issues, feel free to add them here. If this my effort is contradicting the OpenPandora workflow, then pardon me, and instruct me, how else to handle issues of that kind. Thanks!

262ApplicationBug ReportMediumMiniMenu: 1) "Notes line" cannot be deleted. 2) Note li...Unconfirmed
0%
Task Description Steps to reproduce the bug(s): 1) In MiniMenu select an arbitrary app. 2) Press SPACE to bring up the contextual menu. 3) Select "Edit notes line 1". 4) Insert your string and confirm. 5) Now at a later time you may decide to remove your note line again. Therefore you select the same app again in MiniMenu, then repeat steps 2-3, but this time: a) Erase all characters so that you get an empty string and then confirm. RESULT: Your change is simply ignored! There should be a possibility within MiniMenu to remove/reset note lines, the simplest being to simply accept an empty string as an input, that's what an average user will try if s/he does not find a dedicated "Delete note line" command. b) As a workaround I tried something and detected yet another bug! As I could not create an empty string, I simply created a note line only containing 1 SPACE character (=the string " ") and confirmed. This got accepted. If MiniMenu is in detailed view mode (press the A-button or TAB in order to bring it up, if it is not already there) and you slide over an app whose note line is " ", MiniMenu crashes! Maybe the bug is connected with the writing to / the parsing from the .OVR (override) files which MiniMenu creates for the affected files, as the separating value in OVR files seems to be TAB, and SPACE is also WHITESPACE, therefore some parsers probably skip/misinterpret this, and MiniMenu then catches an unexpected situation! WORKAROUND: If you ran into the problem, that you cannot get rid of the note lines anymore, simply start a file browser of your choice, navigate to the location of the affected .PND file and find its sister .OVR (override) file and delete it or edit it accordingly!
265ApplicationBug ReportMediumMiniMenu: Flawed tab display of sub-categories if they ...Unconfirmed
0%
Task Description I assigned personal subcategories to some of my games. Some of those subcategories share the same beginning string, i.e: Shooter, ShooterBallistic ShooterScoller. MiniMenu displays those subcategories with flaws! See the ASCII screenshots below. Note: The star symbols indicate the currently active selection. The main category tab "Game" being active: ---------------------------------------------------------- | All | Audio | AudioVideo | Education |*Game*| Graphics | ---------------------------------------------------------- ActionGame AdventureGame ArcadeGame BlocksGame ... Shooter ShooterBallistic ShooterScroller ... GameA GameB GameC ... ---------------------------------------------------------- Now if I navigate into the sub-category "Shooter", everything normal: ---------------------------------------------------------- |*Shooter*| ---------------------------------------------------------- .. ShooterA ShooterB ShooterC ... ---------------------------------------------------------- But if I navigate to the sub-category "ShooterBallistic", strangely MiniMenu shows 2 tabs, "Shooter" and "ShooterBallistic", and jumps right into "Shooter". ---------------------------------------------------------- |*Shooter*| ShooterBallistic | ---------------------------------------------------------- .. ShooterA ShooterB ShooterC ... ---------------------------------------------------------- In order to reach my intended tab "ShooterBallistic" I need to navigate to it again. Annoying. There the contents are as expected: ---------------------------------------------------------- | Shooter |*ShooterBallistic*| ---------------------------------------------------------- .. ShooterBallisticA ShooterBallisticB ShooterBallisticC ---------------------------------------------------------- The flaw is the same for all other sub-categories beginning with "Shooter...". All have the flaw as shown in the example "ShooterBallistic", only that it is themselves instead of "ShooterBallistic". One more example to be perfectly clear: ---------------------------------------------------------- | Shooter |*ShooterScroller*| ---------------------------------------------------------- .. ShooterScrollerA ShooterScrollerB ShooterScrollerC ----------------------------------------------------------

Task Description Thunar takes a long time going back to minimenu on exit. You don't notice this when in XFCE but then you are always in the GUI not returning to it. This started in Hotfix 6 Alpha4 I believe
288CoreFeature RequestLowadd functionality to inputrcUnconfirmed
0%
Task Description Since the default inputrc doesn't contain any functionality (simple cli movements like ctrl-left or crtrl-right to skip words don't work) this diff may be useful to add to the cli-experience. I've also been trying to get the delete-key to work, but this is apparently already a known issue (see FS#227). I can remove this from the diff if you want. (I couldn't attach a file to the task somehow) 31,32c31,33 < # "\e[3~": delete-char < # "\e[2~": quoted-insert --- > #"\e[3~": delete-char > "\e[^?": delete-char > "\e[2~": quoted-insert 44,47c45,50 < # "\e[5C": forward-word < # "\e[5D": backward-word < # "\e\e[C": forward-word < # "\e\e[D": backward-word --- > "\e[1;5C": forward-word > "\e[1;5D": backward-word > "\e[5C": forward-word > "\e[5D": backward-word > "\e\e[C": forward-word > "\e\e[D": backward-word
290CoreBug ReportMediumgnome-mount not availableUnconfirmed
0%
Task Description In GTK applications, such as Truecrypt, NoteCase Pro or Mousepad, the file open / file save dialogs have shortcuts to mounted file systems on the left side. If clicking such a shortcut entry, the corresponding file system's contents are shown in the right dialog pane. This works for file systems, which were available at boot time. For file systems mounted after booting, e.g. by inserting an SD card or connecting a USB drive, when clicking such an entry, an error message appears saying "Could not mount [volumen name] Failed to execute child process 'gnome-mount' (No such file or directory)" This is healed by sudo opkg install gnome-mount (which instals gnome-mount, nautilus, gvfsd-ftp, gvfs (upgrade), and a lot of libs (upgrades).. This has been seen in SuperZaxxon release 1.5, not in Beta3 (but Beta3 is the only choice in Flyspray's dropdown currently). I reported that error for HF6 I think, and it seemed to be fixed in SuperZaxxon Beta5. A regression?
292CoreBug ReportLowCan't seek in ogg files using pygame / SDLUnconfirmed
0%
Task Description Using pygame I try to play a music file starting from some position in the middle:: import pygame pygame.init() pygame.mixer.init() pygame.mixer.music.load('some_file.ogg') pygame.mixer.music.play(0,60) This should start playing the file from the firs minute, instead on the pandora the file plays from the start. I've tried the same code in a debian (sid) chroot (from extend utils) and it works correctly, as it does on my pc (debian wheezy). I suspect that the issue may be present also in .next (I've done a very quick test on a friend's pandora). Some relevant version numbers: * libogg.so.0.6.0 (on debian libogg.so.0.8.0) * libSDL_mixer-1.2.so.0.10.1 (on debian libSDL_mixer-1.2.so.0.12.0)

300CoreBug ReportLowSuperZaxxon interprets on-disk FAT32 filenames differen...Unconfirmed
0%
Task Description With SuperZaxxon Final, I've noticed that stuff running on the Pandora like Thunar and bash are seeing a different interpretation of filenames on disk than when I remove the SD card and insert it into my desktop PC. Specifically, the following two mismatches appear to be present when using a FAT32-formatted SD card: First, the Pandora's VFAT support seems to be be operating with different case-handling settings than desktop Linux distros. Filenames set in all uppercase are forced to all-lowercase on the Pandora (whether they're set on the desktop or the Pandora) but inserting the card into a PC reveals that the. All-lowercase filenames set by software on the Pandora risk appearing in all uppercase when the card is inserted into a PC. (I think the grsync PND is what created the files in question) Among other things, this forces me to use EITHER the PND-based copy of grsync over the network OR a desktop-based copy of rsync with an SD card reader but not both because the kernel will preserve case differences like ALBION.BAT vs. albion.bat but rsync think they are separate files. (resulting in Flash-killing, time-wasting deletion and re-creation) It also makes for irritating entries like "zzt" in DOSBox or "ddr" in PyDance where I can't capitalize the filename properly without employing Department of Redundancy Department with "DDR Songs" or "ZZT.The.Game" as an excuse for mixed case. Second, SuperZaxxon Final seems to be using a different (though still Unicode-capable) filename encoding than all the desktop distros I've tried. Filenames are preserved properly and all-ASCII filenames are displayed properly in all cases, but any non-ASCII characters appear as gibberish on whichever system was not used to set them. I've confirmed this problem with these two filenames: - 03 - The Foggy Dew with Sinéad O'Connor.flac - Lucky Star - Native Misao (Touhou - Native Faith) ???????????????????×??????.mp4 As a Canadian user, my desktops use the "en_CA.utf8" locale and the only other distros I've found which have this problem are Slax and the 1.0 release of its successor, Porteus, both of which use ISO-8859-1 (latin1) for filenames.
301CoreBug ReportMediumMissing X keybinding for colon symbolUnconfirmed
0%
Task Description As verified with xev, an attached bluetooth keyboard can not generate colon (shift semicolon). xmodmap shows that (unlike a standard Linux system) shift-semicolon is mapped to NoSymbol. While it's find that there's a special symbol to get semicolon on the built-in keyboard, the other binding really should be there in support of attached keyboards.
307CoreFeature RequestMediumChange how Automatic Shutdown worksUnconfirmed
0%
Task Description When thee Pandora is shutting down because its almost out of power, it should check to make sure that the nub inputs are set to the default mode (which is mouse movement for the left nub and mouse buttons for the right nub). If not, it should change them to be like that.
308CoreBug ReportLowWireless Network being dropped asks for passwordUnconfirmed
0%
Task Description When a Wireless Network that is dropped because its signal strength isn't that good gets reconnected to, I am being asked to re-input the password for that network. It would be nice if it just used the password I gave to it when it was able to connect without popping up that dialog box.
315CoreBug ReportMediumPairing bluetooth SPP devices doesn't work with XFCEUnconfirmed
0%
Task Description Hi, sadly the XFCE bluetooth manager seems to have problems with pairing simple SPP devices (an BT GPS mouse here). 1. Enable BT 2. BT Manager -> Add new device 3. Confirm Dialog and wait for scanning 4. Pick device 5. Select PIN options -> "0000" (here for me) In next step the dialog still asks you to enter a random PIN at your BT device (which is impossible here). Thus it seems, that the XFCE dialog makes troubles, I tried it with 2 different GPS. Pairing the GPS manually works fine: sudo rfcomm connect rfcomm0 00:18:E4:26:5F:14
320CoreBug ReportLowBluetooth connection lost after wake-up from sleep modeUnconfirmed
0%
Task Description

When an internet connection was established through a mobile phone (Android, tethering) via bluetooth, the internet connection will not be re-established when the Pandora was sent to sleep and woken up again. The Pandora seems to be connected to the mobile phone, but no internet connection can be established, not even when manually trying to connect. The only way out is to disable bluetooth and enable it again.

I had similar problems with WiFi, before notaz tweaked the system (http://boards.openpandora.org/index.php/topic/11416-wifi-mysteries-resolved-once-and-for-all-—-power-saving-is-clearly-the-culprit/?p=249036).

324CoreBug ReportLowSticky keys setting for shift key disabling itself afte...Unconfirmed
0%
Task Description

The sticky keys option is disabling itself for the shift key. It continues to work with the left shoulder button though.

Unfortunately I have no idea what triggers the  sticky option to be disabled. Sometimes it happens after 1-2 minutes, sometimes it takes longer.

I would also like to point out that using the shoulder button instead of the shift button it _not_ an option! This issue has been reported in the forums, but apperantly was never fixed.

325CoreBug ReportLowImpossible to not set password at first boot Unconfirmed
0%
Task Description

The Wiki states that the Pandora can be used without setting a user password on first boot. But when the password and password confirmation field are left empty, an error pops up saying that there is a password missmatch.

326CoreBug ReportLowXFCE menu not expandingl with stylys and scrolling brok...Unconfirmed
0%
Task Description

The XFCE menu does not always show submenues like "Emulators" when being clicked on with the stylus. It only works if the click lasts long or after all menues have been clicked at once with a long click.

Also, tipping on a scroll arrof of menues that are higher than the screen causes the click to be registered as a "click and hold". This leads to the menu being scrolled all the way to the end.

327CoreFeature RequestLowContext menu for the XFCE menuUnconfirmed
0%
Task Description

Right now. the XFCE menu handles right clicks like left clicks. It would be more logical to either not do anything on a right click, or open a context menu that e.g. lets the user generate a link to an application on the desktop.

329CoreBug ReportLowScreen turns on when LCD closedUnconfirmed
0%
Task Description

Issue: The screen accidentally turns on even when the lid is closed.

How to reproduce: "Screen blanking" must be enabled! Close the lid, wait more than 10 minutes, tap either shoulder button.  This behaviour happens whether on charge or battery, at the desktop or running an application, provided that the "screen blanking" option is enabled.

Desired outcome: When the Pandora comes out of "screen blanking", it should restore the brightness to the same value that it was before blanking.

330CoreBug ReportLowNetworkManager crashes after suspend to RAMUnconfirmed
0%
Task Description

Suspend to RAM uses less power than the low power mode, but the NetworkManager crashes often after the Pandora woke up from suspend to RAM.

This could be fixed with an update of NetworkManager.

331CoreBug ReportMediumHold switch key continuously sends X11 KeyPress events ...Unconfirmed
0%
Task Description

When put into Hold mode, X11 handles the power switch as if it's being pressed, and it generates lots of keypress events, passing them to the foreground application. Since /dev/input/eventX does not seem to continuously trigger, I'm guessing it's due to key repeat.

To reproduce:

  • Install xev and open it in the terminal
  • Put the power key in HOLD mode
  • Notice the "time" value changing rapidly

In addition to causing more work to X, it also floods the active application with key presses, resulting in increased CPU usage. In my test, switching to HOLD while Firefox is in the foreground causes it to use 6% CPU and X an additional 2.5%.

In addition, the key-press events continue even after the switch is taken off HOLD until another key is pressed.

A possible solution to this is to blacklist the power-button event device, to prevent evdev from listening to it (the key is handled by pndevmapperd).
