266 | Application | Bug Report | Low | hf6rc: Unable to enter Low Power Mode with lid shut: | Closed | |
Task Description
Since hf6rc was installed I am unable to enter low power mode.
I did pull up the new lid config settings script and selected switch off screen.
Reproducable.
Nothing happens when the power switch is moved fully to the right for a short time.
I expect it to entry low power mode. quirky for it not too.
workaround: easy - enter LPM before closing lid.
btw: unable to select hf6 in reported version. |

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. |

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 |

The Problem is line 655:

Bash handles a path with spacebars as two seperate arguments for the readlink command.
The problem is, that i don't know a solution for this problem. |

244 | Application | Feature Request | Low | Include man and the manpages | Unconfirmed | |
Task Description
The command line environment of the default OS does not include the command "man" and the respective manpages of the installed programs.
I personally often use manpages, as I hardly remember the syntax/arguments of all programs I use.
Having them would be very convenient!
EVALUATING NEEDED STORAGE AMOUNT
Some may argue that storage space is quite limited on the NAND.
Yes I agree. Hence the number of included programs is limited too. Hence it would not be all too many manpages.
When I press TAB into an empty Terminal prompt, I get 1406 possibilities, which is about the amount of available commands/programs if we ignore aliases, etc.
Multiply that with an average of 20 kb per manpage, and you get about 30 MB in total. With compression this could possibly be brought down to 15-20 MB.
POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS
A) Store into the NAND the manpages of core OS CLI programs only, and not all the library/system/etc documentation.
B) Include only the man command into the core OS, and compile/configure it in such a fashion, that it finds the manpages within non-NAND media (SD card, USB volume, etc).
b1) Specify that it simply looks into a certain path within the /media/*/pandora/ structure.
b2) Or offer PND packages like man-core.pnd, man-extended.pnd,... you get the idea or even man-custom.pnd (which would look into its appdata or a certain path for custom added manpages, to somehow get the b1 approach within the PND approach). |

Task Description
If you set MiniMenu's option "Live (not exit) on app run?" to YES, and you quit an application and return to the still running MiniMenu, it runs in windowed mode, and takes about 2 seconds until it goes into full screen mode again.

I am suggesting the new option "Grid stop horizontal" for MiniMenu with the following possible settings and their effect.
Yes -> If the boundary is reached the focus remains there.
No -> If the boundary is reached the focus starts at the opposite side again.
Jump to next/prev line -> If the boundary is reached the focus jumps to the next/previous line and the opposite side. |

238 | Application | Feature Request | Low | Quick key access to OK in dialogues | Unconfirmed | |
Task Description
PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: In many GUI dialogues the default action button (OK, ACCEPT, YES, …) cannot be triggered with a simple key press. Pressing ENTER triggers the element which has focus (usually the first dialogue element), but not the default action, as most computer users would expect!
MY WORKAROUND MEANWHILE: Press ALT plus the underlined letter of your desired action. But that's not very convenient as the underlined letter needs to be looked upon first, as the button label can differ from situation to situation (ACCEPT, OK, YES, …) and then 2 keys need to be pressed.
SUGGESTED SOLUTION: The custom of many operating systems should be adapted on the OpenPandora as well. SPACE triggers the currently focused element (whatever that may be: list item, radio button, checkbox, etc), and ENTER triggers the default action of that dialogue.
Or even better use the Pandora specific A/B/Y/X keys cleverly in those dialogues/selections. I don't know whether there is a standard functionality assignment within this key-group, in MiniMenu "B" is start/confirm, I do not know of any other standard assignments yet. |

236 | Core | Bug Report | Low | Cannot unmount SD-Card | Unconfirmed | |
Task Description
SD-Card in Pandora can only be unmounted by guest (uid=1000) but not by jgeiss (uid=1001).
Steps To Reproduce:

Try to unmount SD-Card via XFCE-Popup-Menu (right mouse click on SD-Card-Icon and select unmount). |

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? |

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. |

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? |

Problem - Login Screen does not accept all symbols of the form Fn+char
Reproducibility - always
Actual results - the characters :?#|$€"‘£¥@!_ do not work on the Login Screen with the Pandora's keyboard. When fn then the corresponding character is pressed, nothing is added to the string.
Expected results - these characters should appear just like any other character
Work Around - an external keyboard was able to enter these characters
Aditional Information - While the characters :?#|$€"‘£¥@!_ do not work, the characters ;/\'-+=`() work just fine. |

220 | Core | Feature Request | Low | Please include /usr/bin/xkbset | Closed | |
Task Description
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. |

213 | Application | Bug Report | Low | Gigolo does not perform it's task | Closed | |
Task Description
In it's current state, Gigolo is flat out broken and (almost) useless. It pretends to to it's job, but can't because it's missing critical pieces of anatomy.
It can mount local filesystems correctly, but then so can thunar, so this is a redundant and useless function. The main reason to use Gigolo is to mount remote filesystems easily, and without having to use the terminal, and to save passwords in your keychain.
The solution to the problem is to perform the following tasks:
sudo opkg install gvfsd-sftp sshfs-fuse
sudo mousepad /etc/modutils/fuse
type "fuse" save and quit
sudo update-modules |

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 is consistently repeatable: tapping three times in rapid succession on the same spot of the file causes the crash.

Task Description
When booting the pandora-OS from sd-card by using the official tar, you will end up with your sd-card being mounted twice: once as / and once as /media/. I solved this by adding "/dev/mmcblk0" to "/etc/udev/mount.blacklist". Maybe this should be added to the default tarball? I'm not sure as it might be used in other ways maybe (beside SD-card-installation)?
Background: I ran "updatedb" as root and have been notified by a message that there was a mount-loop. After adding the above modification the system still booted fine and "updatedb" ran nicely without a warning. |

Task Description
The update from Hotfix3 to Hotfix4 beta3 broke restoring of display brightness at boot time. Restoring of brightness after "powersave mode" (aka flipping the power switch for a short time) does work nicely. This might be related to bug #163 ( http://bugs.openpandora.org/index.php?do=details&task_id=163 ) where shutting the display down via DPMS does result in the brightness being lost when getting the display on again.
This is related to the desktop mode (XFCE). Don't know if it does happen for minimenu, too, not tested yet. |
|
163 | Base OS | Bug Report | Low | DPMS related "display problems" | Closed | |
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". |
