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 |

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. |

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! |

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".

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? |

Desired solution:

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).

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. |

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:

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). |

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. |

Task Description
It looks like XFCE cannot find the icons for links/launchers on the desktop, when the user logs on too quickly. This happens either when the session chooser at start-up is disabled, or when the session is being chosen quickly after the session chooser is being displayed (e.g. by pressing enter as soon as the chooser window pops up). The icons are probably not generated yet at that time point.
A simple workaround is adding the command "xfdesktop --reload" to autostart. Couls this be included in the next SuperZaxxon release or a hotfix? |

329 | Core | Bug Report | Low | Screen turns on when LCD closed | Unconfirmed | |

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. |

331 | Core | Bug Report | Medium | Hold switch key continuously sends X11 KeyPress events ... | Unconfirmed | |
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). |

Task Description
evmapperd should start blinking when the power is getting low.
Ideally, the blinking speed should increase with decreasing battery power and should start maybe at 5% as default (would be nice to have the settings configurable by the user).
As soon as the AC adaptor is connected, blinking should stop.
When the battery power is at 0% it should immediately shutdown and poweroff (NOT to be overridden by the user!)
Aditionally, we should have some charging control (or would it be better using a different daemon for that?)
Here's part of my conversation with MichaelW:
when the charge current was below a threshold, it would reduce the charger input current allowed and take it down to about what the system needs
it would be an active thing constantly sampling the system and constantly updating the input current to match the system
the alternative is that when the battery is full, the charge path is cut off until the battery drops down a bit, maybe 90% |

PXML needs to have a switch added for that and pnd_run should change the mode according to that switch.

Task Description
At the moment, /usr/pandora/scripts/op_switchgui,sh ,/usr/pandora/scripts/op_defaultgui.sh and /usr/pandora/scripts/first-run-wizard.sh are hardcoded with the GUIs we have.
I'd like to have that configurable for the future.
My current plan is having a config file with all the GUIs in (e.g. /etc/pandora/gui.conf)
In there, there should be ALL GUIs:
"XFCE4";"startxfce4";"xfce4-session-logout --logout"
"Netbook Launcher";"startnetbooklauncher";"killall netbook-launcher-efl"
"PMenu";"pmenu";""
So with an info:
a) What's the name of the GUI
b) How to start it
c) How to stop it (if it doesn't do that itself)
Therefore, various GUIs could be implemented and switched with the Switch GUI script by simply adding it to the config file.
Ideally, all GUIs should either have a shutdown script (so I don't have to kill it to quit it) or react properly on a simple terminate
command :)
Or they could do it themselves, read out the config file, show up the different GUIs we have, change the /tmp/gui.load file and quit.
Any more ideas?
Any help? Coding that script shouldn't be too hard, the only thing I don't know at the moment is how to parse various config lines (as above) into a shell script :)

61 | Core | Feature Request | Medium | Packages to remove and include | Closed | |
Task Description
The following packages can be removed:
embryo
gnome-games
gnome-games-blackjack
gnome-games-gnometris
gnome-games-iagno
gnome-games-gtali
gnome-games-gnobots2
xmms-mad
But we need the following ones:
xmms-plugin-input-mpg123
xmms-plugin-input-mikmod
mikmod
libxxf86dga1
epdfview
gnumeric (if possible, would be nice)
I do wonder though if we should remove all gnome-games (and ScummVM) completely.
Makes more sense if we wrap those games up as PND files.
Same goes for the community wallpapers. Should we include them? Or save that space for other things? |

73 | Base OS | Feature Request | Medium | Nub: Change mouse speed, fix scrolling and add mouse bu ... | Closed | |
Task Description
Currently the nubs can be set to three different modes:
mouse, scroll and absolute
Mode 1 (mouse) works fine, but the speed is a bit slow.
Mode 2 (scroll) has inverted scrolling and it would be nice if scrolling speed would change according to how far you move it
Aditionally, I would suggest adding another mode: mbuttons (Mouse buttons).
At the moment, you can use the nubs as mouse but don't have any mouse buttons.
I think it would be very convenient if you could set the nubs as mouse buttons:
Move the nub left for left click, right for right click, up for double click and down for middle click.
That way, each user could use the left nub for mouse and the right nub for mouse buttons or vice versa. |

85 | Core | Feature Request | Low | open lid while in low power mode | Closed | |
Task Description
I'm replying in-forum:
An interesting point -- opening the lid turning the screen on, but you're still in lower power mode. The question then becomes --
Since you enabled low power mode (using the power switch), thats the logical way to un-low power mode.
Two outcomes come to mind ..
When opening the lid, one of:
i) wake up from low power mode, or
ii) Don't turn the screen on when in low power mode
(or a variation of (ii) -- flash a warning "hey, I'm in lower power, bugger off, and hit the power switch")
I can code something in; probably occured due to in my prototype, I broke the power switch, so I didn't use low power mode near the end ;) |
