Task Description I'm getting 5kb/s with bursts up to 10kb/s if I am lucky. I have attempted every channel on my router. Tried every encryption even no encryption. Tested with the router's wifi speed: 300Mbps 154Mbps and 45Mbps I'm running Hotfix 5 RC2. Wifi works fine with my android smartphone, and other wireless devices such as a laptop.
 237 CoreBug ReportCritical /dev/mmcblkN - N sometimes points to left, sometimes to ...Closed
100%
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.

 31 CoreBug ReportHigh X11 Crashing with omapfb Closed
100%
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
 38 CoreBug ReportHigh ALSA crashes every so often Closed
100%
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 CoreBug ReportHigh file doesn't work (missing magic files) in image from F ...Closed
100%
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.
 54 CoreFeature RequestHigh Make it possible to enable / disable keyboard mappings  ...Closed
100%
Task Description Some stuff (UAE4ALL, SuperTux, etc.) is having problems because ABXY and DPAD are mapped to keyboard buttons. I guess this will lead to more problems in the near future with SDL apps, so it should be configurable to enable / disable the keyboard -> DPAD / ABXY mappings. Maybe this could be included into libpnd?

 76 CoreBug ReportHigh Wifi connection lost under high CPU load Closed
100%
Task Description I noticed that when I tried Quake 3 a while back that I would lose my internet connection. Only the very first time I tried it did it ever find a couple thousand servers and let me join a map. Since then, it always dies and I never see any servers. I wasn't too concerned yet because maybe it's just Q3 doing something but tonight mplayer was running full screen and then suddenly it started chugging and the network manager popped up that it was trying to connect (spinning logo at the bottom). Since you only get one shot at network manager per boot, it was a lost cause. The correlation I make here was that I'm sure the CPU was under heavy load for both cases but I haven't tried other programs to see what happens. I didn't have any games on this card tonight. Can anyone repeat this problem or is it a known issue?
 81 CoreBug ReportHigh pandora seems to hang during boot, turns out it didn't Closed
100%
Task Description it seemed just now thay my pandora didnt complete its bootsequence. During booting, the screen turned black. I thought it had crashed, but I still saw lights flashing when I inserted an SDcard. I then assumed that it WAS booting normally, but that the screen was turned down. So I pushed enter to confirm my username, as I suspected that I was at that prompt. Next I inputted my pwd, pushed enter, waited a bit, and then ised Fn+I to increase the brightness. It worked! I think that during the bootprocess the screen should at most be set to the darkest setting, but never to off. I think I know what happened. I told my pandora to shutdown and closed the lit before it was done. I guess that that swiittched off the screen, a setting which was then saved by the shutdown process, and restored during the bootsequence. I would suggest fixing this in the startup process, rather than the shutdown process, because that way, no matter what ends up in the settings, a sensible valsue is set at startup. I'll see if I can reproduce this.
 101 CoreBug ReportHigh Cannot unmount SD card or USB stick through the GUI Closed

 136 CoreBug ReportHigh rather high battery discharge while Pandora is powered  ...Closed
100%
Task Description The Pandora does seem to use too much energy while it is turned off. A testcase: The pandora was turned off over night (about 8 hours) and battery state dropped from 98% to 96%. When removing the battery from the pandora for the same amount of time, the state is not changed at all. This is based on the zaxxon firmware release with hotfix3, beta2. Problem: if you don't use the pandora for a while and forget to remove the battery you can cause a deep discharge which might damage the battery. This is also a problem if the Pandora does eg shutdown itself since power is out and you can't directly attach it to a charger. Possible causes: * Design fault in the board. * Too much powered on while the device *should* be completely powered off. The only things that should get power are the clock and the power button. This should basically not drain much. Regarding the clock: The PalmPre is based on the OMAP3, too. There you basically have no discharge when it is powered off, so it is unlikely that the fault is in the OMAP3 itself.

 173 CoreBug ReportHigh X uses 100% cpu in low power mode Closed
100%
Task Description After 10 minutes in low power mode X seems to go nuts and use 100% CPU. Obviously this is bad ;-) 14MHz isn't *that* slow, so there's obviously something getting wedged. I haven't been able to figure out exactly what's happening, but the fact that it always occurs after exactly 10 minutes suggests its power management related. Maybe we're getting stuck trying to kick off the screensaver, or something? Hacking op_power.sh do disable screen blanking shows that, unsurprisingly, the screen freezes at the same time X goes AWOL. Pressing the power switch brings the device out of low power mode, though there is often a few seconds additional delay as the event handling scripts take longer than normal to run because the CPU is already busy. I've attached the results of top -b -d 60 > toplog & while sleep 60 ; do cat /proc/loadavg; done > loadlog

 195 CoreFeature RequestHigh Start re-recharge of battery sooner Closed
100%
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; /********************************/ (Move defines to the top, as appropriate)

100%
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).
 259 CoreBug ReportHigh Hold switch does NOT lock keyboard! Especially crucial  ...Closed
100%
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.

 25 CoreBug ReportMedium QWERTY Slowdowns Closed
100%
Task Description Cleaned up a bit according to everything we know. EDIT: notaz did it again. Fixed it. If you find any weird side effects, let us know :) http://notaz.gp2x.de/tmp/Xorg Replace the file /usr/bin/Xorg Be sure to change permissions to 755 Switching between DPAD and keyboard does increase CPU usage on X A LOT. It even tends to crash ALSA if done too extensive. According to notaz, this is due to some very old crap that's still included in X. Internally it has one mouse and one keyboard, everything else is copied every time you press a key and bunch of callbacks are called, messages are sent to all screens and windows. New tests from EvilDragon: Disabling xfwm4 makes things better (ALSA won't crash anymore), but it still lags. Running it in minimal X (directly from .xinitrc) strangely fixes this - X won't eat up more than 17% CPU, regardless how many buttons you press. OLD Entry: The qwerty controls when pressed are causing the system to slowdown making the application running to pause/delay. Ive seen in a least 2 application glquake and supertux. For example pressing space would cause the hiccups and shortly after the pressing stopped the application would regain normal running speed. The other joystick/nub controls work fine. glquake is getting controls direct from the event files. Supertux is using the SDL layer. This was done on angstrom image from dec 19th. EDIT: More tests done by EvilDragon with the latest image (pandora-xfce-image-omap3-pandora-20100102-new-kernel-fn-n-m-support.tar.bz2) When you play with the DPAD and press a keyboard button, the app is making the small pause. You can press as many keyboard buttons as you want after that, there won't be another pause. BUT as soon as you press the DPAD again, it pauses again. Then the next pause does happen when you press a keyboard button, etc. So it feels like it pauses when you switch between DPAD and keyboard. The most important thing: This only happens when you run SDL Games from X. It doesn't occur when running SDL games from the console.

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.

 44 CoreBug ReportMedium Pandora-Start-Menu button too small Closed
100%
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)
