 78 CoreBug ReportVery Low minimenu - zaxxon initial release - doesn't use preview ...Closed
100%
Task Description Stupid; in the /etc/pandora/conf/mmenu.conf the preview cache is looked for in mmcblk[12]* .. should be [01] or really just /media/*/pandora... etc. So just switch [12] to [01] and works fine. Fixed in the git tree already, so will roll out in a real image build.
 116 ApplicationBug ReportLow Freetype issues (freeciv sdl client) Closed
100%
Task Description With the SDL client for freeciv the font characters show up as square blocks and garbage characters. This may be related to freetype. I had also heard that battle at wesnoth had similar issues.
 120 Base OSBug ReportMedium Python is missing some modules Closed
100%
Task Description It seems like Python is missing some modules (like cgi) which should be included in the base installation.
 140 CoreBug ReportHigh WiFi Starts off fast then slows down Closed
100%
Task Description When downloading files using a browser or wget or when attempting to stream videos we see a fast initial burst which then slows down dramatically. see following topics for more details and actual user stats. http://www.gp32x.com/board/index.php?/topic/54340-post-your-speed-over-wifi/ http://www.gp32x.com/board/index.php?/topic/54921-you-tube-through-vlc/ http://www.gp32x.com/board/index.php?/topic/54831-minitube/ http://www.gp32x.com/board/index.php?/topic/54901-possible-wifi-issues/

 317 CoreBug ReportMedium After disabling USB-host current still flows into USB d ...Closed
100%
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.
 17 CoreFeature RequestLow Backlight off when display shuts off Closed
100%
Task Description Would it be easy to make the backlight shut off when the screen goes off after a period of inactivity? That would save a lot of energy both during the charge cycle and if left on with a battery running. Thanks!
 19 CoreFeature RequestLow XFCE-Menu Editor Closed
100%
Task Description Add an XFCE-Menu Editor (using python). This way, people can edit the Startmenu :) http://my.opera.com/Texel/blog/2008/02/20/xfce-applications-menu-editor-0-4
 54 CoreFeature RequestHigh Make it possible to enable / disable keyboard mappings  ...Closed
100%
Task Description Some stuff (UAE4ALL, SuperTux, etc.) is having problems because ABXY and DPAD are mapped to keyboard buttons. I guess this will lead to more problems in the near future with SDL apps, so it should be configurable to enable / disable the keyboard -> DPAD / ABXY mappings. Maybe this could be included into libpnd?
 61 CoreFeature RequestMedium Packages to remove and include Closed
100%
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 OSFeature RequestMedium Nub: Change mouse speed, fix scrolling and add mouse bu ...Closed
100%
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 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 ;)
 122 Base OSFeature RequestMedium SDL 1.2 optimizations Closed
100%
Task Description At the moment, SDL is a bit slow and has vsync problems (tearing, etc.). It could need optimizations to use the hardware.

Task Description menu button is verified verify power button verify lid open/close
 29 CoreTo Do (Reminder)Low ToDo: Map Fn-U and Fn-I with brightness controls Closed
100%
Task Description Include brightness change hotkeys.
 34 CoreTo Do (Reminder)Low Add software mixer to ALSA Closed
100%
Task Description Some headphones are very loud. The volume wheel cannot be used properly with them. Therefore, we should be able to change the volume in software mode, too. File attached below, simply needs to be included in the next image by DJWillis.
 47 CoreTo Do (Reminder)Medium evmapperd: Blinking LED and charging control Closed
100%
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%
 49 CoreTo Do (Reminder)Low Change some of our scripts into internal PNDs Closed
100%
Task Description Some of our scripts (CPU Speed, Switch Default GUI, Enable TV Out) should be changed into PND format so that pmenu can also run them.
 50 CoreTo Do (Reminder)Medium pmenu: Add shutdown / logout Closed
100%
Task Description There's no way yet to shutdown (poweroff) or logout from pmenu yet.
 59 CoreTo Do (Reminder)Low ToDo: Add joystick / keyboard switch to pnd_run and lib ...Closed
100%
Task Description The next kernel offers switching between a joystick / keyboard mode. In joystick mode, the DPAD and ABXYRL Buttons behave like a joystick buttons and have no keyboard mappings. In keyboard mode, the DPAD and ABXYRL Buttons have keyboard mappings and are NOT registered as joystick. The normal keyboard keys are not affected by this. PXML needs to have a switch added for that and pnd_run should change the mode according to that switch. When the PND app has quit, it should always go back to keyboard mode. The commands are the following: echo 1 > /proc/pandora/game_button_mode # keyboard mode echo 2 > /proc/pandora/game_button_mode # gamepad mode
 60 CoreTo Do (Reminder)Low Include new menufile (Setting) for XFCE4 Closed
100%
Task Description I just built a nice menu file which features subdirectories for games and emulators :) I attached it, the old one should be replaced: /etc/xdg/menus/xfce-applications.menu
 62 CoreTo Do (Reminder)Low New xmodmap to include into latest image Closed
100%
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
 63 CoreTo Do (Reminder)Low Include new panel-setup for XFCE4 Closed
100%
Task Description I enhanced the XFCE4-Panel setup a bit, since we now have working ALSA mixer and a battery monitor. The files inside the attached archive should go to /etc/xdg/op/xfce4/panel/* in the image.
 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.
 70 CoreTo Do (Reminder)Low Make switching GUIs more customizable (hardcoded at the ...Closed
100%
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 :) vimacs, any idea there?
 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!

Task Description I had to reboot the pandora (look in the manual :)) to get back to the installer. I had to specify ANOTHER user, as the one I made was still there. Picking the XFCE one did work.

Task Description And when i try to remove anyway, it tries to remove user (null). I didn't have the guts to say 'Yes, remove user'
 81 CoreBug ReportHigh pandora seems to hang during boot, turns out it didn't Closed
100%
Task Description it seemed just now thay my pandora didnt complete its bootsequence. During booting, the screen turned black. I thought it had crashed, but I still saw lights flashing when I inserted an SDcard. I then assumed that it WAS booting normally, but that the screen was turned down. So I pushed enter to confirm my username, as I suspected that I was at that prompt. Next I inputted my pwd, pushed enter, waited a bit, and then ised Fn+I to increase the brightness. It worked! I think that during the bootprocess the screen should at most be set to the darkest setting, but never to off. I think I know what happened. I told my pandora to shutdown and closed the lit before it was done. I guess that that swiittched off the screen, a setting which was then saved by the shutdown process, and restored during the bootsequence. I would suggest fixing this in the startup process, rather than the shutdown process, because that way, no matter what ends up in the settings, a sensible valsue is set at startup. I'll see if I can reproduce this.
 83 Base OSBug ReportLow getting more /media/mmcblk?p1  Closed
100%
Task Description From a conversation with skeezix: I'm seeing /media/mmcblk0p1, mmcblk1p1, mmcblk2p1, mmcblk3p1 and mmcblk4p1 - is that something I should worry about? This started after I inserted & ejected my sd card a couple of times. To which skeezix said: The system starts at /media/mmcblk0 (with p1 ec being the partition number); if you eject the SD, then stick it back in, it will try to go to the earlier number again, but if some process was watching that SD when you ejected it, the system will nto be able to recycle that number, so you get the next blk number. So if you end up with /media/mmcblk5p1 (say), then it means you've been eject/inserting, and some program or another has been watching the SD instead of letting it go. Isn't it nicer to cleanup the ones above 1 (so 0 and 1 are there) at startup to avoid confusion?
 84 ApplicationBug ReportLow Bluetooth stays on Closed

Task Description You can enable Bluetooth, but can't disable it afterwards from the system -> toggle bluetooth menu shortcut.
 89 Base OSBug ReportMedium XFCE not loading up defaults when MiniMenu is selected  ...Closed
100%
Task Description When mini menu is set to the default menuing system, XFCE settings (selected theme, pandora-specific key bindings) do not get loaded by default, they need to be forced by opening a terminal and typing xfwm4 --replace
 91 Base OSBug ReportMedium libaudiofile is installed by codec pack instead of in b ...Closed
100%
Task Description Certain emulators such as Fuse are reliant on this file and I am assured it should be part of the default load-out (or rather in the HotFix) rather than in the codec pack as it's not a copyright issue.
 92 Base OSBug ReportMedium Startupmanager Closed
100%
Task Description When trying to toggle Enable/Disable Autologin After initially enabling this feature, attempt was made to disable unsuccessfully. System says that it saves this info, upon reboot, login screen shows up again. Wifi toggle seems to work, as does Default GUI, & selecting default user
 93 Base OSBug ReportLow zaxxon first boot: don't ask for user prompt if already ...Closed
100%
Task Description How to reproduce: First boot, Pandora's Box has been opened. Prompt for Full name, username, and password. Then, simply press OK without selecting whether minimenu or xfce. None selected. Then you can't do any more. Wizard closes and you don't need any more options. After manual reboot, the wizard starts again and asks for name again. But the username already exists.

 98 ApplicationBug ReportMedium Pidgin freezes (msn) Closed
100%
Task Description Pidgin freezes when using the msn protocol. Sometimes it can last 25 minutes before doing so, sometimes it freezes instantly. Usually it's after only a few minutes. Once it freezes you are still able to close it using the built in crash manager (?!) This happens both when running from XFCE and Minimenu.

Task Description If I resume after standby (moved the slider to the right), the pandora shows the desktop and I can move the mouse cursor but if I click something, nothing happens. IRC suggested that the CPU might still be clocked at the standby low power speed.
 100 CoreBug ReportLow Demos & Examples - remove from image Closed
100%
Task Description /usr/bin/qt4/demos is 9Mb in size and /usr/bin/qt4/examples is 11Mb. I'm guessing these are only useful for developers. Can they safely be removed? edit: additionally, /usr/share/vim is 12M. Can those of us who are never going to use VIM remove it?
 102 Base OSBug ReportVery Low Pandora key does not close XFCE menu  Closed
100%
Task Description If the XFCE menu has been opened by a touchscreen command, it can also be closed by hitting the logo again. However, opening the menu this way and then hitting the Pandora key only spawns more instances of the menu. Least intrusive way to close those seems to be to select "Logout" and hit Cancel.
 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.
 109 CoreBug ReportMedium Wifi looses connection after 20-30 minutes Closed
100%
Task Description While logged into XFCE and browsing for an extended period the wireless will loose its connection. It will not reconnect until the Wifi is toggled off and back on again using the ToggleWifi application. I have not tested this on an unsecured network. My wireless is WPA2 encrypted.
 114 ApplicationBug ReportLow Chromium browser does not support HTTPS/SSL Closed

 131 CoreBug ReportMedium bluetooth drivers read timeout too trigger-happy/logic  ...Closed
100%
Task Description Shamelessly plugged from the forums, to get proper bug tracking and notifications on this. My post: @notaz: + /* there hould be no rx in progress at this point */ + if (info->rx_skb != NULL) { + dev_err(info->dev, "Receive timed out, %i done, %li left, " + "LSR=%02x, IER=%02x\n", info->rx_skb->len + 1, + info->rx_count, hci_h4p_inb(info, UART_LSR), + hci_h4p_inb(info, UART_IER)); + info->rx_timed_out = 1; + } Could you share your rationale for that comment in drivers/bluetooth/hci_h4p/core.c? (Oh and there's a typo, too :P ) EDIT: Asking this because commenting that block out changed status of bluetooth (for me) from unusable (can receive ~20-500kB of data before ppp connection halting) to fully working - used to have big problems playing 32kbps AAC stream (max 2 min), now already 4 mins of 96kbps, but i still think we need some receive timeout mechanism, but this one (as it currently stands) doesnt work. Notaz's reply: I don't really remember, it was more than 1.5 years ago. That driver is a hack, will need to review it, does it work stable with that code removed? My reply: For the non-IRC people: urjaman on IRC said: (22:47:45) urjaman: notaz: about stability: i'm on irc atm with that driver, its been playing internet radio for a few hours without problems now, but i don know for sure. (22:48:00) urjaman: *dont know (22:50:11) urjaman: my logic: if the serial port _never_ misses a byte it should be ok - IMO scary without some receive timeout, but works for me
 132 Base OSBug ReportMedium Deleting big files doesn't work Closed
100%
Task Description When deleting a file on the SD card, the Pandora OS moves it into the thrash folder in the internal memory. That itself isn't very nice (shouldn't there be a trash folder on the SD card as well, to reduce unnecessary copying?), but if the file is too big for the internal memory, a error message appears, and the file cannot be deleted on the Pandora directly.
