 183 CoreBug ReportHigh Left mouse click and hold = fail Closed
100%
Task Description When I want to hold and select multiple files its not working. Not with the nubs or the touchscreen. I can try an easy test by making the select rectangle on the desktop. It only becomes very very tiny. If I try very fast diagonal drag motion on the touchscreen. It becomes a little larger. Trying to grab scrollbar is the same issue.

Task Description Summary is about all i can dug out now. Somehow related to the PWM driving, because SD, bt and wifi leds work with trigger=timer. NOTE: power and charger leds are driven by PWM (just so you all know what I'm talking about). All i wanted to do was to add blinking power led to low power mode and all i get is a frozen pandora :/.

Task Description running "sudo rdate -s time.ien.it" will set the brightness of the LCD to 0. User has to use FN + I to increase it back to a usable level. "rdate" asks for the super-user password as expected, updates the date as expected, but turns off the screen.

 278 CoreBug ReportLow Kernel 3.2.x: broken middle click on right nub Closed
100%
Task Description Using kernel 3.2.x middle click with the right nub is no longer working. With the "old" kernel you get a middle click when pushing the right nub down, this is no longer the case when eg using SuperZaxxon Beta3 (was already the case in SuperZaxxon Beta1 with kernel 3.2.1). As long as you are using kernel 2.6.27.x middle click is working as expected.
 276 CoreFeature RequestLow Kernel 3.2.x: add script to activate zram Closed

Task Description Please add a script to activate zram (RAM compression) when using the new kernel. More info about how to do this is available in this post: http://boards.openpandora.org/index.php?/topic/7844-superzaxxon-beta-3-released/#entry138834 http://boards.openpandora.org/index.php?/topic/7226-superzaxxon-beta-11-released/page__st__20#entry128665 Please be aware though that Linux-SWAT had to explicitly set a value in "/sys/block/zram0/disksize" to get it work with Slackware. Over here the following is automatically set: pandora:~$ cat /sys/block/zram0/disksize 61648896 Sadly I can *not* change this value, even using sudo: pandora:~$ ls -l /sys/block/zram0/disksize -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Apr 9 12:51 /sys/block/zram0/disksize pandora:~$ cat /sys/block/zram0/disksize 61648896 pandora:~$ sudo echo 61648888 > /sys/block/zram0/disksize -bash: /sys/block/zram0/disksize: Permission denied Basically the following commands are required in a startup script to automatically create the "compressed swap inside RAM" aka zram (possibly a check if the modprobe was successful makes sense as well as checking for the size of the created ramdisk): modprobe zram mkswap /dev/zram0 swapon -p 5 /dev/zram0

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.

 86 Base OSFeature RequestVery Low Including small development frameworks/projects in the  ...Closed
100%
Task Description It could be nice, if some very small development frameworks were included in the OS since the Pandora should make it as easy as possible for beginners to start programming. That means: A "Start coding now"-wizard/script can be run from the desktop from which you select the type of project (c++, python, SDL...) you want to do. It copies the framework to SD-Card, opens it in an editor/IDE to see the sourcecode and leads you to the first compile and run. Can be combined with a PND-Packer-script. Ideas for frameworks: - a small python template (pygame?) - a template project for an SDL-project (red square in fullscreen) - a template project for OpenGL ES (a simple colored triangle) - a template project for using NEON or DSP - something with a GUI (QT?) - general HelloWorlds - all as simple as possible! I know that this could help many beginners to actually start programming because the first compile is often hardest step (setting up toolchain, hassle with libs, includes, dependencies, compiler options, choice of editor, makefiles, all that stuff). Feel free to delete this feature request if it doesn't fit into the bugtracker.

244ApplicationFeature RequestLowInclude man and the manpagesUnconfirmed
0%
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).

331CoreBug ReportMediumHold switch key continuously sends X11 KeyPress events ...Unconfirmed
0%
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).

 259 CoreBug ReportHigh Hold switch does NOT lock keyboard! Especially crucial  ...Closed
100%
Task Description Apps, which operate with the Pandora in closed lid mode, such as audio players, server processes, etc, in a button-press-probably environment (as i.e. your pocket) still CAN receive the shoulder button L + R key presses, and if they have a meaning in these programs, they could trigger undesired actions. And also in the current implementation of the Low Power Mode (See: FS#260) key presses may still be received. Therefore I strongly propose to implement the HOLD switch to en/dis-able a keyboard lock. IN DETAIL: This shall be global, meaning that the input processing software (however this is implemented on the Pandora: kernel, driver, … ) keeps the lock state (on/off), and if the keyboard state is off, a) discards all input, or b) if it makes sense for some reason/applications (any ideas?) just writes them into a queue/buffer, which gets (partially) executed or made accessible to certain software after the keyboard gets unlocked again. FYI: I have tested the hold switch with the Pandora Input-Tester, and it is recognized. So my report is definitely a software (and not an hardware) issue.

290CoreBug ReportMediumgnome-mount not availableUnconfirmed
0%
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?
 213 ApplicationBug ReportLow Gigolo does not perform it's task Closed
100%
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
 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?
 37 CoreBug ReportVery Low Game doesn't start in No-X mode (pnd_run.sh) (Permissi ...Closed
100%
Task Description EDIT: Some more information from notaz: it's failing because it can't find controlling tty (/dev/tty is a "virtual" gateway device, so setting permissions gave no effect) do "ps ax" on your desktop and it has the tty column so SDL fbdev driver wants to get a real tty fo be able to read keys So we need to somehow give it a real tty? yeah, but I don't know why as pnd start from X and that gives virtual tty *don't know how* maybe something can be done using openvt, chvt and similar tools ------ What happens if you run a script in no-X mode: 1. It stops slim 2. It mounts all the directories as needed (works fine). 3. It DOES NOT start the app 4. It unmounts all the directories 5. It restarts slim (and therefore X) I can confirm the path is correctly and the filesystem is mounted there (did an ls -l). I can also confirm the game is working fine, as the same PND does work within X if I run it from the terminal using pnd_run supertux_noX.pnd So it looks like the line that actually executes the game does work when run in X, but not when run outside of X. Maybe it tries to execute the game on the screen where the script is actually started (X) and therefore can't run it as X is not running anymore? The line working in X-mode but not working in non-X-Mode: LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/mnt/utmp/$BASENAME ./$EXENAME $ARGUMENTS The game I tried was SuperTux (SDL-Game) with a no-X=1 parameter in the PXML.

 39 CoreBug ReportHigh file doesn't work (missing magic files) in image from F ...Closed
100%
Task Description It seems there's a bug in the latest package "file 5.04-r0.5" of the Angström repository: It's missing the magic files and therefore doesn't work. Unfortunately, pnd_run.sh depends on it and therefore it breaks the PND-system. Installing an older stable version (http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/feeds/2008/ipk/glibc/armv7a/base/file_4.21-r0.1_armv7a.ipk) does make it work again. First appeared on image from Feb 13th, not fixed in image from Feb 22nd yet.
250ApplicationFeature RequestMediumFile Browser Thunar - Trashing file crosses filesystem ...Researching
30%
Task Description Trashing a file/folder seems to MOVE it to a certain trash directory on the MAIN VOLUME, rather then the ORIGINATING VOLUME, hence this can result in a COPY RATHER THAN A MOVE operation, if the trashed file originates from a filesystem other than the main filesystem! This is very inefficient and faulty as it is: a) Very time consuming b) And in case of large files this operation can even fail due to not enough free space on the main volume.
 249 ApplicationBug ReportHigh File Browser Thunar - After 2 nub double-clicks unreact ...Closed
100%
Task Description If I navigate via keyboard (KEY UP/DOWN to move in lists, ENTER level down, BACKSPACE level up) I experience no problems at all. I can go many levels up/down, change to other folders, etc. No problems. But if I navigate with the nubs, and using the right-nub-up-direction to trigger a double click, this only works 1-2 times, and from then on, the files/folders in Thunar cannot be clicked any further. I am stuck then. A look into dmesg reveals this: keyboard.c Can't emulate rawcode for keycode 139 The timestamp of that specific keyboard.c error messages exactly correlates with the bug occurrence times. (uptime timestamps matched with dmesg timestamps) I tried alternative filebrowsers such as emelFM2, and there the problem does not exist, meaning I can trigger as many double clicks I want! I am using HotFix 5 Alpha 4 on an SD card. The bug already annoyed me on a HF5 on the NAND.

 235 CoreBug ReportLow 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?

 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%

229CoreBug ReportHighEnable wake on alarm interrupts Unconfirmed

Task Description Found I'd kept some notes about making the Pandora's wake on alarm function work... drivers/rtc/rtc-twl4030.c twl4030_rtc_remove (for when the driver is removed) and twl4030_rtc_ shutdown (for when the system is shutdown) functions need to change. Or at least the shut down does. oh YUK who's been using goto.... changes in drivers/rtc/rtc-twl4030.c twl4030_rtc_remove commented out //mask_rtc_irq_bit(BIT_RTC_INTERRUPTS_REG_IT_ALARM_M); twl4030_rtc_shutdown replaced // mask_rtc_irq_bit(BIT_RTC_INTERRUPTS_REG_IT_TIMER_M | // BIT_RTC_INTERRUPTS_REG_IT_ALARM_M); with mask_rtc_irq_bit(BIT_RTC_INTERRUPTS_REG_IT_TIMER_M); twl4030_rtc_suspend replaced // mask_rtc_irq_bit(BIT_RTC_INTERRUPTS_REG_IT_TIMER_M | // BIT_RTC_INTERRUPTS_REG_IT_ALARM_M); with mask_rtc_irq_bit(BIT_RTC_INTERRUPTS_REG_IT_TIMER_M); twl4030_rtc_init added (before return!) twl4030_rtc_alarm_irq_set_state(true); Should probably check reg 0x2B with mask 0x08 to see if alarm should be left enabled or not ? but only in twl4030_rtc_shutdown and ?remove? NOT in twl4030_rtc_init should remove ever happen ??? I'm guessing it's best to not enable the alarm irq's all the time???
 163 Base OSBug ReportLow DPMS related "display problems" Closed
100%
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".
 164 CoreBug ReportLow Display brightness not restored at booting, HF4beta3 Closed
100%
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.

 137 Base OSFeature RequestLow Default vim config Closed
100%
Task Description The current vim install does come without any config file. By default this means vim does work in "vi compatible mode" which makes it hardly usable. The attached config file is meant to be used as ~/.vimrc, so it should be added to "/etc/skel/.vimrc". The file is partly based on the default config used by gentoo. Things this config file sets: * Start in "vim mode" by default * activate ruler * set width of linenumber in ruler * assume that the terminal uses a dark background * configure what hitting backspace removed (newlines, ...) * some magic to have different encoding formats working in a more sane way
