100%
Task Description The Date and Time application in MiniMenu by won't let you use the cross or the cancel button to close the application without changing anything.

 107 Base OSBug ReportLow Secure Wifi will not connect until XFCE is loaded Closed
100%
Task Description My Pandora is set to load MiniMenu on boot. I can't use any networked apps because wifi will not automatically connect on boot. XFCE needs to be loaded at least once so that i can enter my keychain password. Once i've entered my password Wifi connects and i can return to MiniMenu.

Task Description a) Host multiple volumes at once. b) Select one for hosting first, later host additional ones. (I guess this scenario is more complicated)
329CoreBug ReportLowScreen turns on when LCD closedUnconfirmed
0%
Task Description

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.

 147 Base OSBug ReportLow Screen backlight is ON when starting with lid closed Closed
100%
Task Description [HotFix3 installed] If you power up the Pandora and have the screen closed, the backlight will still go on. That should not happen. Right now you have to open it, close it and than the backlight turns off to save energy...
299CoreBug ReportLowrun_pnd.sh does not follow PXML.xml or "-d"-ParameterAssigned
0%
Task Description I call pnd_run.sh with a pnd. The application directory will invariably be /media/SD/pandora/appdata/, no matter if the PXML.xml specifies a different appdata path. Also, the parameter -d for run_pnd.sh is not followed, either. I tried with vlc.pnd from the app store and with Dosbox74.pnd. UPDATE: Original submission contained a wrong filename reference. Corrected that typo to the filename intended by the submitter. Admin: porg.
 75 Base OSTo Do (Reminder)Low Remove application-launcher from Pandora-Button Closed
100%
Task Description As the Application Launcher takes 12 seconds to load and slows all running games down terribly if you accidentally hit the Pandora-Button, it is useless. Please change it so it does something different. My suggestions: * Open the XFCE Start-Menu or * Open a simple applauncher (as suggested by vimacs) Make sure it doesn't disturb any game or emulator if you press it while playing!
238ApplicationFeature RequestLowQuick key access to OK in dialoguesUnconfirmed
0%
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.

100%
Task Description After the last TI gles driver update quake1 (vanilla glquake 1 sources) and nanogl started to lockup the pandora after a few minutes of gameplay. Oddly all the other apps using nanogl seem stable. There is some bad code in nanogl (missing/null function pointers), which I need to clean up and afterwards reevaluate this issue.

Task Description I love to use the pandora for some on-the-go python development, and I think I'm not the only one, but unfortunately the module pydoc is missing, which is needed for doing help(sys) on the interactive prompt. Could you please include that in the next firmware revision? Thanks!
 303 CoreBug ReportLow pppd 2.4.3 has a bug, recommend upgrade to ppp 2.4.5  Closed
100%
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.

Task Description If the power cable is plugged and the user chooses "Shutdown Pandora" from a menu, there should be a warning that this is without purpose, as the device will automatically restart. The resulting user choices should be "Cancel shutdown" and "Shutdown nevertheless".
 247 CoreBug ReportLow pnd_make.sh can't handle PND with spaces in the path Closed
100%
Task Description 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: 655: PND=$(readlink -f $PND) 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.
 32 CoreBug ReportLow pndnotifyd: Crawling through directories it shouldn't i ...Closed
100%
Task Description My current configuration is: Rootfs on first SD Card, 2nd partition. If I put my WIZ SD Card with tons of files into the second SD Slot while booting, pndnotifyd eats up about 95% of CPU time. After about 8 - 9 minutes, it stopped eating the CPU and the system is working normally. This doesn't happen when I put in the card when XFCE4 is already running. Using LSOF, I can confirm it's crawling where it shouldn't: pndnotify 1825 root 6r DIR 179,9 1441792 62488 /media/mmcblk1p1/roms/c64/Tapes Could it be that on first initialization it hasn't loaded the config and crawls through the whole SD Card? On a side note: I got 44700 files on that SD Card... so if it needs about 8 minutes, that does mean it can do over 5000 files a minute!
 150 CoreBug ReportLow pndnotifyd Segfault Closed
100%
Task Description Might be related to http://bugs.openpandora.org/index.php?do=details&task_id=128 as it have exactly the same behaviours. But this time no translation is involved (masked in my script until this is fixed). And making the file smaller (by removing apps :( ) managed to let it alive, so it seam to be file size related.

Task Description I did create some PXML files which have screenshots included. pmenu seems to ignore them, it just shows a red X.
 220 CoreFeature RequestLow Please include /usr/bin/xkbset Closed
100%
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.

 24 CoreBug ReportLow op_menu.sh not working Closed
100%
Task Description Reports: xfce4-appfinder: Cannot open display: . Fix might be (according to vimacs): Change those two similar looking lines to: sudo -u $xfceuser DISPLAY=:0.0 xfce4-appfinder and: pidlist=$(pstree -lpA | grep pnd_run.sh | sed -ne 's/.*-\(.*\)(\([0-9]\+\))/\2\n \1/p' | DISPLAY=:0.0 zenity --list --multiple --column "pid" --column "name" --title "kill" --text "which apps should be killed" | sed 's/|/\n/') Needs to be checked.
 42 CoreBug ReportLow op_defaultgui.sh: sed needs sudo access Closed
100%
Task Description I (EvilDragon) created a small script where you can reselect the default GUI and enable / disable autologin. Works fine so far, except for that the sed to /etc/slim.conf needs root access. I have no idea how to make sudo in this script work without asking for a password. If anyone could help me there, I'll be happy :)
 334 CoreBug ReportLow op_bright_down.sh: error when decreasing brightness Closed
100%
Task Description

The script does not handle brightness "0".

If you try to decrease brightness if it's already at 0, it produces errors:

~ # /usr/pandora/scripts/op_bright_down.sh /usr/pandora/scripts/op_bright_down.sh: line 18: [: : integer expression expected /usr/pandora/scripts/op_bright_down.sh: line 22: echo: write error: Invalid argument

Not sure how to attach a patch here, but you can get the change with:

git pull git://git.assembla.com/openpandora-oe.git bug-333

I also changed the script to use /bin/sh since it's a valid posix script.

 21 CoreBug ReportLow op_bright.sh doesn't work correctly Closed

Task Description The file has to be changed to make it work. The working script is: #!/bin/bash #get value range minbright=3 maxbright=$(cat /sys/devices/platform/twl4030-pwm0-bl/backlight/twl4030-pwm0-bl/max_brightness) curbright=$(cat /sys/devices/platform/twl4030-pwm0-bl/backlight/twl4030-pwm0-bl/brightness) device=/sys/devices/platform/twl4030-pwm0-bl/backlight/twl4030-pwm0-bl/brightness if [ ! $1 ]; then newbright=$(DISPLAY=0:0 zenity --scale --text "set brightness" --min-value=$minbright --max-value=$maxbright --value=$curbright --step 1) else newbright=$1 fi if [ $newbright -le $minbright ]; then newbright=$newbright; fi echo $newbright > $device

Task Description Is there any chance we can have OpenAL installed as a default library? I'm considering porting some software that requires it (and truth be told I manually compiled and installed it for my own use atm...)
 85 CoreFeature RequestLow open lid while in low power mode Closed
100%
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 ;)

Task Description This is just the latest xmodmap, based on the latest map notaz released. Both maps (xmodmap and notaz' console map) are attached. Path in the image: /etc/skel/.pndXmodmap /etc/keymap-extension-2.6.map
 64 CoreTo Do (Reminder)Low New power-manager.xml-file (removes opening the logout  ...Closed
100%
Task Description As the powerswitch is used to go into low power mode or shutdown, it doesn't make sense showing the logout dialogue (which would appear when you come back from low-power mode). Therefore, I disabled it with this file. It should be placed in: /etc/xdg/op/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml/ in the image.
330CoreBug ReportLowNetworkManager crashes after suspend to RAMUnconfirmed
0%
Task Description

Suspend to RAM uses less power than the low power mode, but the NetworkManager crashes often after the Pandora woke up from suspend to RAM.

This could be fixed with an update of NetworkManager.

 298 ApplicationBug ReportLow Mousepad only searches once Closed
100%
Task Description Whenever I search text in an open Mouspad document, it works fine the first time. As soon as I close the search dialogue and re-open it, the "find" (resp "find and replace" in replace dialogue) button is greyed out and unclickable. (This is the state the dialogue is in before typing anything, but this time, typing doesn't help.) "return" also doesn't work. Only help is closing and reopening Mousepad.
178CoreBug ReportLowMount-loop when booting from SD-cardUnconfirmed
0%
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.
 33 CoreBug ReportLow mmcqd eating lots of CPU power when writing Closed
100%
Task Description EDIT: Tried a remount with noatime and this seemed to work very well. CPU usage when writing still goes higher, but not as high as before. Very common problem, seems to happen on all systems (just do a google search for mmcqd). Just run SuperTux, wait about 10 seconds at the title screen and it will hang for a few seconds (while mmcqd goes up). Same problem as on the GP2X where we also had hangs occuring. I wonder if there's something that can be done here? Some suggest to change mmcqd priority. Some other sites do try to remove features of mmcqd. Another option is to mount async (like on the gp2x). As the Pandora usually isn't switched off the hard way but should be shutdown properly, this could be a good solution. That would mean that our suspend mode needs to call sync before shutting down. Maybe pnd_run.sh could also run sync after a game quit? Here are some interesting reads that might help us: http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-omap@vger.kernel.org/msg16345.html : "wait_for_completion is blocking call. Please check 'omap_mmc_request'" http://www.mail-archive.com/davinci-linux-open-source@linux.davincidsp.com/msg08732.html - He disables some stuff in mmcqd which lowers CPU usage.
