Task Description
[U-Boot] ext2fs_devread() read error - block
Description:
Formatted two different Transcend 8GB SD cards as EXT2 using both GParted and also with Mkfs.ext2, extracted pandora-rootfs.tar.bz2 to the root of the SD and added 'autoboot.txt' as described here: http://openpandora.org/firmware/README.txt
This issue appears to be same as mentioned here, looks like a patch maybe required in drivers/mmc/omap3_mmc.c):

195 | Core | Feature Request | High | Start re-recharge of battery sooner | Closed | |
Task Description
Increase battery LVL_4 and LVL_3 threshold.
After reaching 100%, in some cases the charge circuit enters "battery full" state, stops charging, and begins to discharge. This is not entirely unexpected behavior according to the spec sheet, although I don't fully understand exactly the situations in which it completes charging. Once the battery is full, the battery will begin discharging. The charge circuit automatically restarts the recharge once the voltage has gone below a certain level (crosses below the LVL_3 voltage threshold)
The default LVL_3 voltage threshold is 3.902 volts which is at about 80-85% battery level as recorded by bq27500 chip. In my opinion, this is way too low.
Setting the BCIMFTH2 register to 0xCB increases the voltage threshold to about 4.003 volts which is about 93%.
Setting it to 0xDC may also be worthwhile, which is just over 95%.
By default, if a user leaves their Pandora plugged in overnight, they may wake up to find their Pandora has stopped charging and the capacity has dropped to almost 80%, which can be quite startling to some users who will then report it as a bug.
This change will ensure that it never drops below 93-95%, a much more acceptable level.
Specific code changes suggested, in the /drivers/power/twl4030_bci_battery.c file, somewhere in the twl4030_bci_battery_probe function (or a function called by it), add the lines:
/********************************/
#define KEY_FTH2 0x7F
#define REG_BCIMFTH2 0x017
ret = twl4030_i2c_write_u8(TWL4030_MODULE_MAIN_CHARGE, KEY_FTH2, REG_BCIMFKEY);
if (ret)
return ret;
ret = twl4030_i2c_write_u8(TWL4030_MODULE_MAIN_CHARGE, 0xDC, REG_BCIMFTH2);
if (ret)
return ret;

201 | Core | Bug Report | High | PND apps still use memory after they've quit | Closed | |
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

but all 3 seem to be missing.
yes, i'm linking to libpnd ... but no chance to get it running.
i'm using ivanovic's latest toolchain, which in turn installs "pandora-libpnd-dev_1.0-r40.5_armv7a.ipk" ...
also, there's only the static library available inside, no dynamic libraries. |

212 | Core | Feature Request | Low | Add curl to core installed programs | Closed | |
Task Description
I wish for curl to be installed by default on the upcoming pandora FWs,
As reported by the angstrom repo, where I install using the command:
$sudo su
...
#opkg update
#opkg install curl
curl 7.21.2-r4.0.9 is 78.57 Kilobytes with the dependencies
Depends:libcurl4, libgnutls26, libgcrypt11, libgpg-error0, libc6, libz1
I do not know which is installed by default, but I'm sure libc6 is, so I'm going to state the info on the rest of the packages for its memory space usage on the NAND
libcurl4(142.99 Kilobytes):
Command line tool and library for client-side URL transfers.
Depends:libc6, libgnutls26, libz1, libgcrypt11, libgpg-error0, as you can see, it has the same dependencies as above, so it seems both curl and libcurl are probably exclusive from the others, but I will go forward and state the rest of the dependencies
libgnutls26 2.8.6-r10.0.5 (291.44 Kilobytes)
Depends:libz1, libgcrypt11, libgpg-error0, libc6, (again, it looks like the above depends on this)
libgcrypt11 1.4.1-r0.9 (220.35 Kilobytes)
Depends: libgpg-error0, libc6, (Oh look, we're not looking at libz1 anymore)
libgpg-error0 1.4-r7.1.9 (5.78 Kilobytes)
Depends:libc6
now to the lone libz1
libz1 1.2.3-r7.0.9 (41.95 Kilobytes)
Depends:libc6
So, in the case we already have the gpg stuff, then the installation is only 221.56KB, however, with the zlib and the gpg included, the total comes to 781.08KB
So, now that the cost is out of the way, What are the goods and bads?
Good:
Its a very versatile CLI program to get and send information over http through the network, and is tolerant of network issues
It doesn't take too much space relative to things that have been pulled out, like abiword.
The libcurl is a very good library, and could be of great benefit to some future projects.
Bad:
Well, we already have wget, which is not as configurable, and wget hates Craig's appstore
Here's the link to curl on the repo

This op_wifi.sh just calls

for some reason, the init.d/w.... start causes it to hang, I executed all this locally, and it doesn't appear to keep running
Appending " &" to the line which calls this init script, solves the problem. |

One of the first things after installing HF5 was downloading xkbset, because it is necessary for proper L-R buttons mapping as mouse buttons. Could you please include that in the system?
I am using urjaman's executable from here:
http://www.gp32x.com/board/index.php?/topic/55124-remapping-the-mouse-buttons-etc/page__st__15__p__896576&#entry896576
Even better would be a GUI that allows mapping of L-R buttons for mouse, just like GUI for nubs :) But including xkbset will be already good. |

221 | Core | Bug Report | Medium | 32MB worth of qt4 examples in /usr/bin/qt4 ? | Closed | |
Task Description
Hi, after upgrading to HF5, I accidentally discovered that there are 32MB of qt4 examples & demos in directory /usr/bin/qt4, those examples do work. For instance the /usr/bin/qt4/examples/webkit/fancybrowser/fancybrowser is a working WWW browser.
It is, without any dispute a very useful qt4 development help, but are you sure that you want to include all that in NAND ? |

226 | Core | Feature Request | High | Boot from /dev/sda devices requested | Closed | |
Task Description
Boot from usb hard disk not supported. This should be a rather simple fix of adding the sdx devices and adjust the boot scripts??
I was able to put this autoboot.txt on mmc 0:1
setenv bootargs debug root=/dev/sda1 rw rootdelay=2 console=ttyS0,115200n8 vram=6272K omapfb.vram=0:3000K
ext2load sda 0:1 0x80300000 /boot/uImage
bootm 0x80300000
This failed with amongst other things "Block device sda 0 not supported" and something about failing to load kernel
So I then changed the autoboot file to this
setenv bootargs debug root=/dev/sda1 rw rootdelay=2 console=ttyS0,115200n8 vram=6272K omapfb.vram=0:3000K
ext2load mmc 0:3 0x80300000 /boot/uImage
bootm 0x80300000
All this did was die after the kernel loaded.
I believe I could much better make use of this device if I could boot from some faster storage, please advise :) |

228 | Core | Bug Report | Low | libpnd must be linked to libstdc++ | Closed | |
Task Description
Run "ldd -r /usr/lib/libpnd.so.1", and a number of undefined symbols are listed. These become a problem when attempting to load libpnd in Python. I imagine it could be a problem when attempting to load libpnd in other languages as well.
This can be worked around with "LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libstdc++.so" before running a Python program that loads libpnd.
But it can be worked around more easily by linking libstdc++ during compile. Adding "-lstdc++" to line 41 of libpnd's Makefile does it. I'd add a patch, but the attach file button isn't working for me. Still, a simple fix, right? |

Task Description
The touchscreen is accurate in the middle of the screen but precision is off by one or more mm near the edges of the screen. Recalibrating and rebooting does not help.
Seems like this is just a permission problem - tslib saves calibration data to /etc/pointercal which is noch writeable for the regular user.
Changing permission on that file to 666 solves this, but i guess starting the calibration tool with root permission (gksu?) would be a better solution. |

233 | Core | Bug Report | Very Low | op_power.sh: errors | Closed | |
Task Description
op_power.sh gives some errors to me... it works anyway, but it's not nice to see them all the time.
/usr/pandora/scripts/op_power.sh: line 60: [: 5380: binary operator expected
or
/usr/pandora/scripts/op_power.sh: line 60: [: too many arguments
I guess line 60 of op_power.sh
if [ ! $wlstate ]; then
should rather be
if [ -z "$wlstate" ]; then
shouldn't it?
The same thing is in line
Then sometimes also
rm: cannot remove `/tmp/wlstate': No such file or directory
or
cat: /tmp/wlstate: No such file or directory
which could easily be fixed by adding a test -f /tmp/wlstate && or something like that before the respective command. I just added a lot of test, I'm not sure if every single one of them is really needed, but better too much than not enough, I would say. :-)
I can't attach a file (I click the button and nothing happens), so I just paste it there: http://nopaste.info/2256365eba.html
It's a bit longer because some indentations were wrong (and I corrected them) and I changed all indentations to tabs = 8 spaces instead of 2. |

234 | Core | Feature Request | Medium | Changeable behaviour when closing the lid | Closed | |
Task Description
As it was requested on forum.gp2x.de and I think it's a good idea I've written some scripts to allow the user to change what happens when the lid is opened/closed.
There are 3 Settings:
-The old behaviour (turning off the screen)
-Go into low power mode
-Shutdown
Default behaviour is still the same: Turn the screen off. Maybe we could change this to low power mode? I don't know.
I made a lot of changes to op_lid.sh: http://pastebin.com/GT3qxWSx (diff: http://pastebin.com/Z8GwpDj8 )
I changed line 11 in op_power.sh to: if [ $powerstate -ne 0 ]; then
And wrote a gui for changing the setting using zenity: http://pastebin.com/9JvSTqfQ
(I still can't upload any files, don't know if it's the fault of my browser, that's why I use this paste service) |

235 | Core | Bug Report | Low | File /tmp/currentuser cannot be deleted by other users | Closed | |
Task Description
The system creates a file /tmp/currentuser at the first login of a user. After logging out and in as another user the file still contains the previous user name. An cannot be deleted/overwritten by the new user.
Steps To Reproduce:
At least two users are available and have XFCE GUI enabled.
1. Login as user (eg. guest), a file /tmp/currentuser is created (containing guest)
2. Log out
3. Log in as another user (eg. jgeiss), the file still contains the old name
4. Change GUI to PMenu
5. Log out
6. Log in as first user (guest)
Now the first user (guest) has PMenu as GUI which was set by the second user (jgeiss).
Maybe the permission should be 0666 for this file? |

237 | Core | Bug Report | Critical | /dev/mmcblkN - N sometimes points to left, sometimes to ... | Closed | |
Task Description
SPECIFICATION:
According to http://pandorawiki.org/SD_compatibility_list
/dev/mmcblk0 is the left SD card slot (the one being closer to the headphone check)
/dev/mmcblk1 is the right SD card slot
I trusted that device path specification.
And it was correct MOST of the time.
But sadly only most of the time, NOT ALWAYS!!!
This bug is severely dangerous, as a (possibly critical) command could unexpectedly affect a device other than the one you intended it for!
BUG INCIDENT:
Sadly, I realized this bug at the worst possible moment!
I issued the command: shred -fvz /dev/mmcblk0
but it erased the card in the RIGHT slot.
I realized that because the card inserted on the left has 16GB, and the one on the right 128MB.
I checked both the card positions and my entered command, to exclude my own mistake. Sadly it was not a clumsy mistake: This severe bug really exists!
BUG REPRODUCIBILITY:
I already slightly witnessed this bug during the last days, but thought it was just a coincidence.
I.e. in GParted the larger card showed up at the wrong device path.
I did a refresh and/or ejected/re-inserted the card, and the expected device path was back again, and I did not think further about this incident.
Only today with this fatal shred incident, I eventually realized this behavior is a bug.
Luckily I had my data backed up. |

pnd_make.sh can't handle PND with spaces in the path. For example, if the label of the volume where the PND is saved, has spacebars.
The Problem is line 655:

248 | Core | Feature Request | Medium | Support for hibernation by caching to SD card | Closed | |
Task Description
It would be very desirable that the PandoraOS could hibernate, and that this action can easily be accessed/triggered with either a hotkey or as an action for the max-idle-time-event or lid-close-event.
That would be the battery friendly universal action to quickly pause/resume any arbitrary application/task.
The current standby mode is far to power consuming for breaks longer than ~ 1 hour. Improving standby mode to be more battery-friendly would of course be too highly appreciated and practical.
If hibernation is triggered, RAM content gets written to a special file or partition on a SD card. The boot-manager of course needs to recognize such a RAM-file on SD-cards. In case it finds more than 1, i.e.: multiple cards/partitions, the one with the newest timestamp gets priority.
256MB RAM with about 10-20 MB/s read/write time to SD, would result in 25-12 seconds for going into or out of hibernation, which would be acceptable for me. In practice it would mean, that if I quickly have to pause me OpenPandora operation (i.e. train stop), I just close my lid, and put the Pandora into my pocket (2-4 seconds), and I am then trusting that the rest reliable happens in my pocket (10-20 seconds). |

Task Description
After quitting some apps, their last graphical output remains on the screen, which covers a large area of the Pandora, and therefore makes it quite unusable, so that only a full restart resolves this issue.
As this happens in many apps (Mednafen-GB, Dark Light Battles, etc) this must be a problem within a shared library (driver, graphics lib, window manager framework, or similar). |

255 | Core | Bug Report | Medium | Waking Pandora with closed lid nevertheless turns scree ... | Closed | |
Task Description
Steps to reproduce the undesired behavior:
1) Close the lid. The screen goes off.
2) Slide the power switch to the right. The device goes into low power mode. The screen remains off.
3) Slide the power switch to the right. The device goes into normal power mode and turns on the screen although the lid is still closed!
Desired behavior:
Ad 3) If the system catches the event "wake from low power mode" it should first wake the system, then check the "lid open/close state", and set the screen on/off state accordingly. By this you could use the Pandora as a power-efficient sleep/wake-able closed-lid-device, practical for i.e. audio applications.
I am using: Pandora OS R1.HF6.A4 |

259 | Core | Bug Report | High | Hold switch does NOT lock keyboard! Especially crucial ... | Closed | |
Task Description
Apps, which operate with the Pandora in closed lid mode, such as audio players, server processes, etc, in a button-press-probably environment (as i.e. your pocket) still CAN receive the shoulder button L + R key presses, and if they have a meaning in these programs, they could trigger undesired actions.
And also in the current implementation of the Low Power Mode (See: FS#260) key presses may still be received.
Therefore I strongly propose to implement the HOLD switch to en/dis-able a keyboard lock.
IN DETAIL: This shall be global, meaning that the input processing software (however this is implemented on the Pandora: kernel, driver, … ) keeps the lock state (on/off), and if the keyboard state is off,
a) discards all input, or
b) if it makes sense for some reason/applications (any ideas?) just writes them into a queue/buffer, which gets (partially) executed or made accessible to certain software after the keyboard gets unlocked again.
FYI: I have tested the hold switch with the Pandora Input-Tester, and it is recognized. So my report is definitely a software (and not an hardware) issue. |

264 | Core | Bug Report | Low | Issues with HOTFIX 6 R1 Beta | Closed | |
Task Description
I started with hotfix 5 and when I used the Left Nub for mouse movement it performed well.
I installed HOTFIX 6 R1 Beta and the Nub works fine except pushing up. It moves the cursor very slow and all other directions just fine. The other nub works just fine as well.
This only began after I installed HF6R1B.
I also had to install the Hotfix twice due to sustained system freeze upon start up on the first attempt.
I enabled gui choice but minimenu does not function it just cycles back to GUI choice. |

276 | Core | Feature Request | Low | Kernel 3.2.x: add script to activate zram | Closed | |
Task Description
Please add a script to activate zram (RAM compression) when using the new kernel. More info about how to do this is available in this post:
http://boards.openpandora.org/index.php?/topic/7844-superzaxxon-beta-3-released/#entry138834
http://boards.openpandora.org/index.php?/topic/7226-superzaxxon-beta-11-released/page__st__20#entry128665
Please be aware though that Linux-SWAT had to explicitly set a value in "/sys/block/zram0/disksize" to get it work with Slackware. Over here the following is automatically set:
pandora:~$ cat /sys/block/zram0/disksize
61648896
Sadly I can *not* change this value, even using sudo:
pandora:~$ ls -l /sys/block/zram0/disksize
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Apr 9 12:51 /sys/block/zram0/disksize
pandora:~$ cat /sys/block/zram0/disksize
61648896
pandora:~$ sudo echo 61648888 > /sys/block/zram0/disksize
-bash: /sys/block/zram0/disksize: Permission denied
Basically the following commands are required in a startup script to automatically create the "compressed swap inside RAM" aka zram (possibly a check if the modprobe was successful makes sense as well as checking for the size of the created ramdisk):
modprobe zram
mkswap /dev/zram0
swapon -p 5 /dev/zram0 |

302 | Core | Bug Report | Low | Correct keymap not available during login process | Closed | |
Task Description
The correct keymap, as matching the characters printed on the keys, is available when running the First Boot Wizard, but not during login.
This means that special characters like ! ( ) and so on, which you enter via Fn-[2nd key] cannot currently be used in a username nor password.
My first experience with my Pandora was therefore that I had to reflash the OS due to this as I had locked myself out because I used a special character in my first chosen password.

304 | Core | Bug Report | Low | bluetooth serial port sleep causes lost / frozen connec ... | Closed | |
Task Description
I experienced (reliably) 3 times that if I had an idle ppp/rfcomm connection to my phone, it would eventually freeze so that the phone reported no active bluetooth connection and the pandora ppp would still think that the connection is active, but no data would flow. Killing pppd and re-trying would fail opening of the rfcomm link with "Host is down".
Disabling & enabling bluetooth "fixed" this so that pppd worked again (so it is not the phone that was "down").
Adding these lines to op_bluetooth_work.sh (apparently atleast) fixed it for me:
add between lines 14-15:
echo 0 > /sys/devices/platform/omap_uart.0/sleep_timeout
(or at any place during enable for that matter)
And to disable (before exit 0, line 30) to save power when bluetooth is off and restore normal settings:
echo 10 > /sys/devices/platform/omap_uart.0/sleep_timeout
I remember mentioning this way back when I last tested bluetooth, but got a reply that this should not be needed because we have flow control between the bt chip and pandora. But if a sleeping serial port loses a character when somebody sends a burst to it, what could flow control do? If it reported not ready to receive, the character would never be sent (and things would freeze...). If it reports ready to receive (what I think it does) the character will be lost. One would need to periodically disable the serial port sleep (and enable ready to receive) for a moment to check for pending data, but I think this would use more power than keeping the serial port active and/or possibly cause way too big delays.
I'm not really certain of this thing (whether this is a workaround, hack or a real fix... and whether my interpretation of what is happening is correct - i have no real proof), but I think that reporting what I've found is better than not. (And am I the only user of bluetooth with an old phone for internet (ppp+rfcomm, not pan)? ...) |
