94 | Core | Bug Report | Low | Backlight control by lid sensor not detected after boot | New | |
Task Description
If you boot the system with the lid closed, the backlight will still be on when you get to the desktop. You have to lift the lid for an instant and then close again to shut it off. Perhaps this is because of the lack of trigger for an interrupt since the sensor is already activated. Can there be one extra check of the lid sensor after boot to cover this static position? |

172 | Core | Bug Report | Low | Angstrom repo's bison is borked (FYI) | Closed | |
Task Description
This is how it tries to call m4 (strace -fF'd):
[pid 4231] execve("/OE/angstrom-dev/sysroots/x86_64-linux/usr/bin/m4", ["/OE/angstrom-dev/sysroots/x86_64"..., "/usr/share/bison/m4sugar/m4sugar"..., "-", "/usr/share/bison/yacc.c"], [/* 38 vars */]) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
Problem = obvious.
This is here because a) it is the bison that i get with opkg install bison and b) because i could find a general purpose bugtracker for stuff in the angstrom repo with a single googling.

68 | Core | Bug Report | Low | AlephOne PND not running | Closed | |
Task Description
I don't even know if this is a bug or if I just happen to have a fault in my PXML file.
All multi-apps-PNDs I have do run fine - except for AlephOne.
Whether I include the datafiles or keep them external, it won't work.
I can manually mount it (pnd_run.sh -p /bla.pnd -m ) and run it from the mounted directory, but it does not do so automatically from the desktop file.
If one of you two could check that out, that would rock.
You can download it from the usual PND-Repo I use ;) |

90 | Base OS | Feature Request | Low | Adding more "general libs" to the OS image | Closed | |
Task Description
It would be nice if some more generic libs that could be used by software ported to the Pandora would be available in the base image. For example for Wesnoth we do require these additional libs (names taken from http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/repo/?pkgname=boost ):
* boost-iostreams
* boost-regex
* boost-serialization
Beside this Wesnoth does also require this package (from http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/repo/?pkgname=lua5.1 ):
* lua5.1
In general I would recommend pulling in all of boost. This means the dependencies as well as the recommends. Here is a short paste of what this means:
Depends:
libc6, libstdc++6, libgcc1, boost-filesystem, boost-thread, boost-date-time, boost-system
Recommends:
boost-date-time, boost-filesystem, boost-graph, boost-iostreams, boost-program-options, boost-python, boost-regex, boost-serialization, boost-signals, boost-system, boost-test, boost-thread
There are probably some other packages/lib that might make sense to directly have in the OS image, but they currently don't come to my mind, so I can't list them here. ;) |

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

52 | Core | Bug Report | Medium | X11-Touchscreen: Fullscreen-Issue when the mouse cursor ... | Closed | |
Task Description
There are some issues with the touchscreen using X11 and fullscreen apps which use their own mouse cursor.
The mouse cursor tends to shift around when it comes outside of the normal screen area.
This can be seen with SuperTux: The mouse cursor is a penguin. Move that close to the edge of the screen and it jumps around and then is shifted to the real touchscreen.
Thanks to a bug in SuperTux, this can also be fixed: Go into the Level Editor and go back into the main menu:
On top of the penguin mouse cursor is the normal X mouse cursor, which will not Shift anymore.
Aditionally, I tried the Hatari Menu (running on 640x480) and AlephOne (running on 800x480).
Both use the standard X mouse cursor and both are working fine.
I guess that the mouse cursor gets confused if it has negative values. |

255 | Core | Bug Report | Medium | Waking Pandora with closed lid nevertheless turns scree ... | Closed | |
Task Description
Steps to reproduce the undesired behavior:
1) Close the lid. The screen goes off.
2) Slide the power switch to the right. The device goes into low power mode. The screen remains off.
3) Slide the power switch to the right. The device goes into normal power mode and turns on the screen although the lid is still closed!
Desired behavior:
Ad 3) If the system catches the event "wake from low power mode" it should first wake the system, then check the "lid open/close state", and set the screen on/off state accordingly. By this you could use the Pandora as a power-efficient sleep/wake-able closed-lid-device, practical for i.e. audio applications.

Task Description
The clock occasionally does weird things during low power mode, sometimes gaining time, sometimes losing. This is most likely a result of the CPU being reduced to 14Mhz and the system clock being unable to keep up.
A convenient work around is to make a call to "/sbin/hwclock --hctosys" during wake-up to load the hardware clock back into the system clock. This may add an extra second or two to the wake-up time but will prevent confusion caused by clock being very incorrect. |

248 | Core | Feature Request | Medium | Support for hibernation by caching to SD card | Closed | |
Task Description
It would be very desirable that the PandoraOS could hibernate, and that this action can easily be accessed/triggered with either a hotkey or as an action for the max-idle-time-event or lid-close-event.
That would be the battery friendly universal action to quickly pause/resume any arbitrary application/task.
The current standby mode is far to power consuming for breaks longer than ~ 1 hour. Improving standby mode to be more battery-friendly would of course be too highly appreciated and practical.
If hibernation is triggered, RAM content gets written to a special file or partition on a SD card. The boot-manager of course needs to recognize such a RAM-file on SD-cards. In case it finds more than 1, i.e.: multiple cards/partitions, the one with the newest timestamp gets priority.
256MB RAM with about 10-20 MB/s read/write time to SD, would result in 25-12 seconds for going into or out of hibernation, which would be acceptable for me. In practice it would mean, that if I quickly have to pause me OpenPandora operation (i.e. train stop), I just close my lid, and put the Pandora into my pocket (2-4 seconds), and I am then trusting that the rest reliable happens in my pocket (10-20 seconds). |
