257 | Core | Bug Report | Medium | TV Out script breaks XV/SDL Video playback | Unconfirmed | |
Task Description
This seems to be the case with Hot-fix 5 and 6 alpha 4.
I've been able to repeat this bug by re-flashing..
On a fresh re-flash.. installed community codec pack.. Videos will play fine on Panplayer, VLC and Gnome-Mplayer with default settings, which I believe is XV or SDL out in the case of VLC.
Run the TV-out script it will cause a blank black screen during playback.. Disabling TV-out, switching modes, rebooting.. battery out, nothing seems to allows it to work with XV/SDL out again.. I know If I switch to X11 it will make it "work" again, but I notice a bit of lag during playback using X11 compared to XV/SDL out. |

258 | Application | Bug Report | Low | MiniMenu: Pressing key multiple times only cycles focus... | Unconfirmed | |
Task Description
EXAMPLE: MiniMenu with the option "Subcategories as folders" YES, and the current active tab i.e. "Game" lists:
Subgenre folders: ActionGame, AdventureGame, ArcadeGame, BlocksGame, …
App items: Abuse, Amoeboax, Arkaniod, Bloqus, …
THE BUG: Pressing "A" multiple times only cycles the focus between folders (ActionGame, AdventureGame, ArcadeGame), but never reaches the app items (Abuse, Amoeboax, Arkaniod).
BESIDES THIS BUG in the current keyboard item selection logic, I kindly inquire to implement: FS#243 |

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. |

260 | Core | Bug Report | Medium | Low Power Mode: Input (keyboard, nub) still taken. Appl... | Unconfirmed | |
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. |

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!

262 | Application | Bug Report | Medium | MiniMenu: 1) "Notes line" cannot be deleted. 2) Note li... | Unconfirmed | |
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! |

263 | Application | Bug Report | Critical | MiniMenu with "Auto discover pnd apps?" set to NO hangs ... | Closed | |
Task Description
BUG DESCRIPTION:
On my SD card with Pandora OS 1.6.4 I changed MiniMenu's setting "Auto discover pnd apps?" to NO, and then the program remained in an endless loop showing "Setting up menu...", crashing, "Setting up menu...", crashing, and so on.
BUG REPRODUCTION:
The variable filesystem.do_pnd_disco set to the value 0 definetely causes the crash, but maybe only in conjunction with some of my other settings?!
Therefore see my attached config file mmpref.conf.
Maybe related to FS#79 , hard to tell, as this is a very minimal report.
Definitely not related to my previously reported MiniMenu bug FS#262
WORKAROUND:
1) If your default GUI is:
a) MiniMenu: Then after rebooting, MiniMenu will still be caught in an endless loop! Therefore boot up from an auxilary/temporary volume rather than your volume with the damaged MiniMenu! If your ruined system is on the NAND boot from an SD card, if the ruined system is on SD card, boot from NAND or another SD card. In doubt read: http://pandorawiki.org/Running_Linux_from_an_SD_card
b) Other than MiniMenu such as XFCE: Then you are lucky. Simply start into XFCE, and continue with the next step.
2) Open ~/.mmpref.conf with a text editor and set the variable filesystem.do_pnd_disco to the value 1.
3) Reboot into your healed volume. |

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. |

265 | Application | Bug Report | Medium | MiniMenu: Flawed tab display of sub-categories if they ... | Unconfirmed | |
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

270 | Core | Bug Report | Very Low | Power-slider & lid-close events: XFCE observes user set... | New | |
Task Description
STATUS QUO:
If you are in XFCE and hold the power slider for 3 seconds, you thereby trigger the shutdown command.
For 3 more seconds a dialogue box gives you the chance to abort the shutdown ("Shutting down in 3…2…").
Now in MiniMenu no direct shutdown key is available. You first have to quit the running app (via PANDORA key), then call up the menu (via SELECT key), and then navigate to "Shutdown" and confirm it (by B or ENTER).
INQUIRED BEHAVIOR:
1) Thanks to the very recent MiniMenu speedups, these 4 consecutive user interaction steps can now at least be be executed a lot faster.
Nevertheless, offering a 1-button-interaction (via power slider) too, would be nice. Could you please make that available to MiniMenu?
And in general: Make this power-slide-event available to any possible GUI, so that not each GUI has to implement this by itself, but rather the OS catches this event and handles it uniformly, except if a certain GUI WANTS to establish an exception to the rule.
2) Also the "Lid-Close-Settings" seem to be ignored by MiniMenu. MiniMenu seems to have the action "Turn off screen" hardcoded to that event. Please make MiniMenu observe the user settings from "Lid-Close-Settings".

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 |

290 | Core | Bug Report | Medium | gnome-mount not available | Unconfirmed | |
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? |

If a PND has been run as root before (using pnd_run.sh from a root shell) and afterwards it is invoked the normal way, the PND doesn't start, because the .out file cannt be overwritten:

300 | Core | Bug Report | Low | SuperZaxxon interprets on-disk FAT32 filenames differen... | Unconfirmed | |
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. |

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.

303 | Core | Bug Report | Low | pppd 2.4.3 has a bug, recommend upgrade to ppp 2.4.5 | Closed | |
Task Description
pppd 2.4.3 doesnt auto reconnect (in my setup) even if configured to do so (persist). Found a ppp bug report confirming this ( http://ppp.samba.org/cgi-bin/ppp-bugs/resolved?id=1110;user=guest - "ppp-2.4.3 / pppoe not reconnecting") and that it has been fixed. I compiled pppd 2.4.5 and that reconnects just fine. |

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)? ...) |

When a partition is bigger than 2 or 4 GiB (can't recall now) it makes a "default" 1GiB filesystem. Propably missing large file support in the build. Also, the pandora sd card formatter is missing -F 32 so it makes (i think, it is some time from when I noticed this) FAT16 partitions... |

313 | Core | Bug Report | Low | WiFi LED Not Triggered on First Activation | Closed | |
Task Description
The first time WiFi is enabled after boot, using either the the config button menu or the Toggle WiFi menu option the WiFi LED does not light up. (though the WiFi itself does work)
Once it has been enabled and disabled for the first time, it will work normally for subsequent uses of the WiFi toggle.
If the Toggle WiFi script is launched for the first time from the terminal the LED does light up.
This is the case in SuperZaxxon 1.53 with all current upgrades applied, and reportedly since the introduction of SuperZaxxon.
checking /sys/class/leds/pandora::wifi/trigger while the WiFi is enabled but the LED off shows that the trigger has been successfully set to phy0radio
Also noted while investigating this:
If Wifi is enabled for the first time from the terminal the following errors are generated by /etc/init.d/wl1251-init
Usage: insmod filename [args]
find: /lib/modules/3.2.30/updates: No such file or directory

The commands that generate these errors are only executed if the mac80211 module is not already loaded - and that module is not unloaded when wifi is disabled. This seems to be unrelated to the issue being reported, however I can't see any cause for the issue at all, so I figured it was worth including it in the report anyway. |

315 | Core | Bug Report | Medium | Pairing bluetooth SPP devices doesn't work with XFCE | Unconfirmed | |
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 |

317 | Core | Bug Report | Medium | After disabling USB-host current still flows into USB d ... | Closed | |
Task Description
On my Pandora, due to bad internal WiFi, I use an Edimax EW-7811Un USB WiFi adapter, which has a status-LED, flickering according to the network activity.
After disabling USB-host through the settings menu, the WiFi functionality is gone, but the device's LED is still on. So some current must still flow into the USB device.
The LED now has a permanent light, no flickering! This lack of "device intelligence" indicates that the device was indeed turned off, just current flowing directly to the LED circuit unaltered).
I can repeat the aforementioned steps many times, the behavior is the same.
As soon as I then first physically unplug and reinsert the device, the LED remains off eventually.
From then on, every further issuing of "Disable USB-host" through the settings menu turns the device LED completely off.
Smells like a kernel bug to me! As it requires one real un/re-plugging, from then on works ok. |

320 | Core | Bug Report | Low | Bluetooth connection lost after wake-up from sleep mode | Unconfirmed | |
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). |

Currently only the main category and the first sub category of the main category can be overridden using a .ovr file while libpnd uses additional PXML supplied category date to construct the desktop file.

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. |
