 96 Base OSFeature RequestLow Customizable SD mount options Closed
100%
Task Description Right now writes are really slow because they write synchronously: there should be an option to change this so that the user is first taught how to unmount an sd card then remove it...
 97 Base OSFeature RequestLow Missing kernel-module-snd-usb-audio Closed
100%
Task Description Missing kernel-module-snd-usb-audio would be nice to hook the pandora up to my logitec speakers and have audio out and a hub for hooking up other devices at the same time...
 102 Base OSBug ReportVery Low Pandora key does not close XFCE menu  Closed
100%
Task Description If the XFCE menu has been opened by a touchscreen command, it can also be closed by hitting the logo again. However, opening the menu this way and then hitting the Pandora key only spawns more instances of the menu. Least intrusive way to close those seems to be to select "Logout" and hit Cancel.
 103 Base OSFeature RequestLow OpenAL library in firmware? Closed
100%
Task Description Is there any chance we can have OpenAL installed as a default library? I'm considering porting some software that requires it (and truth be told I manually compiled and installed it for my own use atm...)
 107 Base OSBug ReportLow Secure Wifi will not connect until XFCE is loaded Closed
100%
Task Description My Pandora is set to load MiniMenu on boot. I can't use any networked apps because wifi will not automatically connect on boot. XFCE needs to be loaded at least once so that i can enter my keychain password. Once i've entered my password Wifi connects and i can return to MiniMenu.
 115 Base OSBug ReportMedium OS is missing libvorbisidec.so Closed
100%
Task Description Please add to next hotfix, srb2 needed this file. My temporary hack was to modify the LD_LIBRARY_PATH (didnt like having to so this, but I think the way srb2 is loading the library it wouldnt work without it) and include the library in the pnd. Once this lib is added ill do an update on srb2 and remove the LD hack.
 119 Base OSFeature RequestLow ext4 support Closed
100%
Task Description Don't know how much work this would be to get a later version of the linux firmware to add this, but it would be nice to have more filesystem support.
 120 Base OSBug ReportMedium Python is missing some modules Closed
100%
Task Description It seems like Python is missing some modules (like cgi) which should be included in the base installation.
 122 Base OSFeature RequestMedium SDL 1.2 optimizations Closed
100%
Task Description At the moment, SDL is a bit slow and has vsync problems (tearing, etc.). It could need optimizations to use the hardware.
 129 Base OSBug ReportMedium [PATCH] bluetooth script fails to store/restore bluetoo ...Closed
100%
Task Description Patch to op_bluetooth.sh attached.
 132 Base OSBug ReportMedium Deleting big files doesn't work Closed
100%
Task Description When deleting a file on the SD card, the Pandora OS moves it into the thrash folder in the internal memory. That itself isn't very nice (shouldn't there be a trash folder on the SD card as well, to reduce unnecessary copying?), but if the file is too big for the internal memory, a error message appears, and the file cannot be deleted on the Pandora directly.
 133 Base OSFeature RequestLow Add TiMidity++ to OS? Closed
100%
Task Description Hey, was just wondering if it would be possible to have TiMidity++ (http://timidity.sourceforge.net/) added with a hotfix, would allow games/ports that use it (the Zelda ports here: http://www.gp32x.com/board/index.php?/topic/54633-zelda-kind-of), zdoom and heretic (I think unless pickles has changed them) and other stuff that uses it to not have to include it in the .pnd and saving SD space... just an idea...
 137 Base OSFeature RequestLow Default vim config Closed
100%
Task Description The current vim install does come without any config file. By default this means vim does work in "vi compatible mode" which makes it hardly usable. The attached config file is meant to be used as ~/.vimrc, so it should be added to "/etc/skel/.vimrc". The file is partly based on the default config used by gentoo. Things this config file sets: * Start in "vim mode" by default * activate ruler * set width of linenumber in ruler * assume that the terminal uses a dark background * configure what hitting backspace removed (newlines, ...) * some magic to have different encoding formats working in a more sane way
 139 Base OSBug ReportLow Space should not be accepted in hostname Closed
100%
Task Description http://www.gp32x.com/board/index.php?/topic/54878-embarassingly-nooby-questions-from-a-new-pandora-owner/page__view__findpost__p__885235 If the user names their Pandora using a space in the name, "This will prevent Xfce from operating correctly". Should trap this when asking for a host name.
 141 Base OSBug ReportHigh When using an unlabeled SD card, Hotfix3 final can't un ...Closed
100%
Task Description I had beta 1 of hotfix 3, and there turning the pandora into a cardreader worked fine for that card. However, I just installed the latest hotfix 3 final, but that one fails to unmount. Attached is the pndrunop_storage.out. Apparently something's going wrong with the splitting of the partition name, as it tries to unmount /dev/mmcblk0 instead of /dev/mmcblk0p1 Manually unmounting it by using sudo umount /dev/mmcblk0p1 does work, but then I can't use the tool because that apparently only lists mounted memorycards.
 145 Base OSFeature RequestLow missing tune2fs command Closed
100%
Task Description bash: tune2fs: command not found Please include tune2fs into basic OS image. Would be handy for managing filesystem on SD cards.
 146 Base OSBug ReportHigh Minimenu regressions with Hotfix 3 Closed
100%
Task Description Fresh firmware install with Hotfix 3 installed results in the following issues with Minimenu. 1. 25+% cpu usage versus ~5% in earlier versions. 2. Touchscreen no longer works correctly to select icons. Selecting tabs still works and occasionally it will work for selecting an application icon, but for the most part it simply does nothing.
 147 Base OSBug ReportLow Screen backlight is ON when starting with lid closed Closed
100%
Task Description [HotFix3 installed] If you power up the Pandora and have the screen closed, the backlight will still go on. That should not happen. Right now you have to open it, close it and than the backlight turns off to save energy...
 149 Base OSBug ReportVery Low Resets if Battery is removed - but power is still pluge ...Closed
100%
Task Description The Pandora resets if the battery is removed - even though its plugged to the AC Adapter. the power disapears for a second, and then the pandora notices that the power cable is actually plugged in, and immediately starts the pandora again
 151 Base OSFeature RequestMedium [PATCH] Turn Off LCD when closing the lid Closed
100%
Task Description Just added a few lines to op_lid.sh, will power off the LCD when you close the LID. Patch attached.
 160 Base OSBug ReportLow bug in date/time setting window Closed
100%
Task Description first time i changed the date/time with no problems afterward every time when i try to change it it gives me "Please select month ..." this happens after selecting the time zone window.
 161 Base OSFeature RequestLow Add ftp to base OS Closed
100%
Task Description Include the netkit-ftp package so the Pandora has at least basic ftp functionality out of the box.
 163 Base OSBug ReportLow DPMS related "display problems" Closed
100%
Task Description Currently it looks like DPMS is active in xorg (eg when using XFCE). DPMS is normally used for stuff like turning the screen off to save energy. There seems to be no way to configure this while in XFCE. So the default xorg server values are used. At the moment the screen is turned off after 10mins of inactivity. Problems with this are a) that the time till it is turned off can not be configured b) after wakeup from such a DPMS related display shutdown the brightness is set to maximum. Solution to this: Deactivate the sleep values via xorg.conf. I am attaching a diff to "[openembedded.git] / recipes / xorg-xserver / xserver-xorg-conf / omap3-pandora / xorg.conf" changing those to "default off".
 174 Base OSFeature RequestLow Include modem-manager in base image Closed
100%
Task Description Please consider including the modemmanager package in the base distibution. This allows 3G wireless dongles to work out of the box (configured via network-manager).
104Base OSBug ReportLowAAC decoder libfaad doesn't appear to be compiled as fi...Unconfirmed
0%
Task Description FAAD2 appears to not be compiled with fixed point decoding. My version of libfaad compiled with fixed point used 2-3x less cpu than the provided one. It's not enough to provide the switch to the configure script. the file libfaad/common.h has to be edited and a define uncommented. Line 68 in the v2.7 source. /* COMPILE TIME DEFINITIONS */ /* use double precision */ /* #define USE_DOUBLE_PRECISION */ /* use fixed point reals */ //#define FIXED_POINT
 108 Base OSFeature RequestCritical TUN/TAN-Driver Closed
0%
Task Description There is no TUN/TAN Driver installed. This is recommanded for some encrypted wireless lan connections, especially for eduroam, a world wide access point for the education community. Also, a tun-driver is also recommended for vpnc.
118Base OSFeature RequestLowadd sdl-perl to the base OSUnconfirmed
0%
Task Description Hi there, Many games depend on sdl-perl. Perl and sdl are part of the base OS, but not not the connection between the two. Cheers, sebt3
121Base OSBug ReportMediumPyGame Hardware supportNew
0%
Task Description PyGame is damn slow (games with scrolling are not at all playable). Would be nice if Hardware surface could be used :)
123Base OSFeature RequestLowSuggestions for the Pandora-ButtonNew
0%
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").

0%
Task Description I added: iface usb0 inet dhcp And ran: ifup usb0 But dhclient simply prints usage.
156Base OSFeature RequestVery LowAsk to format SD CardUnconfirmed
0%
Task Description When I have received my Pandora, I got an SD Card but it was not formated. I didn't have any card reader so I didn't now what was wrong (the Pandora or the SD Card). When an unformated SD Card is inserted in the Pandora, it should be nice to ask if we want to format it.
158Base OSBug ReportMediumRefresh rate and BPPUnconfirmed
0%
Task Description On OS Zaxon (hotfix 3). With "xfconf-query", the resolution is 800x480@60 Hz. But with the tool in the menu "Settings" -> "Display", the resolution is 800x480@0 Hz. With Java (opensdk-6-jre 6b18-1.8), GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment().getDefaultScreenDevice().getDisplayModes() return 1 display mode that is 800x480@0 Hz with a BPP of -1. It seems to be the reason that GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment().getDefaultScreenDevice().getDisplayMode() return null and when closing a java application that goes in fullscreen mode to throw an exception (invalid display mode).
159Base OSBug ReportMediumSystem > Run PND Application menu item does nothingUnconfirmed
0%
Task Description With both Hotfix 3 and Hotfix 4 Beta the Run PND Application menu item fails to do anything. Possibly related problem is that PND files newly copied to SD card are not recognized and entered on desktop as expected. When you go to Thunar and right click - execute the PND file, nothing happens. Possible fix by copying the PND to another folder on the SD card with Thunar. This makes at least two PND files I had work. Still no response with "Run PND Application" menu, though.
 2 CoreBug ReportHigh pndnotifyd Closed
100%
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

 14 CoreTo Do (Reminder)Low Add hup of pndnotifyd to .xinitrc Closed
100%
Task Description Pretty minor risk, but if the guy creates multiple accounts on the machine, and logs out of one and into another .. we'll want to hup pndnotifyd Alternative solution is to poll utmp (or inotify on utmp?) to watch for logins and handle it magicly.
 15 CoreBug ReportMedium Permissions / automounted SD Card Closed
100%
Task Description Only root has write access to automounted SD Cards. The normal user can only read.
 16 CoreBug ReportMedium normal user login fails over serial/ttys Closed
100%
Task Description Only root can login over serial or ttys, and only if it has no password. Ssh login works fine. After some debugging it seems to be PAM issue, possibly recipes/shadow/ misconfiguration in OE. Maybe we sould use IMAGE_LOGIN_MANAGER = "busybox" instead of IMAGE_LOGIN_MANAGER = "shadow" as we don't need super security?
 17 CoreFeature RequestLow Backlight off when display shuts off Closed
100%
Task Description Would it be easy to make the backlight shut off when the screen goes off after a period of inactivity? That would save a lot of energy both during the charge cycle and if left on with a battery running. Thanks!
