Task Description Pandora Menu -> Settings -> LCD-Settings -> Manage LCD Gamma Removing all the profiles listed there will make the user unable to even create a new one. The tool becomes unusable. I hope a re-flash would fix the problem. The last profile in the list, or the Default one, shouldn't be deletable at all.

 181 ApplicationBug ReportLow Triple click in Thunar crash Closed
100%
Task Description Triple tapping (with the stylus) a directory in Thunar in icon or compact mode (not detail view) causes Thunar to close (crash) This is consistently repeatable: tapping three times in rapid succession on the same spot of the file causes the crash. It must be the exact same spot, as if double clicking, but a third tap is added. This can be triggered especially when a user becomes frustrated at mistapping, gets carried away, and taps too much.
 231 CoreBug ReportLow Touchscreen not accurate on the edges - Calibration doe ...Closed
100%
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.
 207 CoreBug ReportMedium Touchscreen calibration / use of nubs conflict Closed

Task Description When using certain apps like Basilisk 2 / Dosbox / Enigma the analogue stick and touchscreen are both available to use as a mouse cursor. All is well with the touch until you decide to touch the analogue stick when then affects touchscreen alignment by about 2 - 3 CM. This has been going on since first release.

Task Description With Thunar 1.1 and OS Zaxon (hotfix 3) : - with detail view - I open Thunar - I click with the stilus to select the SD card - I double click with the stilus to open a folder => click with the stilus doesn't select file/folder anymore (I know it is a known bug, but it is not in the list)
 248 CoreFeature RequestMedium Support for hibernation by caching to SD card Closed
100%
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).
 277 CoreBug ReportMedium SuperZaxxon B3: minimenu does not scan all folders Closed
100%
Task Description Using SuperZaxxon beta3 (already observed it with beta2) it seems as if minimenu is not scanning all folders (and subfolders) correctly. Please have a look at this post for more information: http://boards.openpandora.org/index.php?/topic/7558-superzaxxon-beta-2-released/page__st__140#entry138597

 195 CoreFeature RequestHigh Start re-recharge of battery sooner Closed
100%
Task Description Increase battery LVL_4 and LVL_3 threshold. After reaching 100%, in some cases the charge circuit enters "battery full" state, stops charging, and begins to discharge. This is not entirely unexpected behavior according to the spec sheet, although I don't fully understand exactly the situations in which it completes charging. Once the battery is full, the battery will begin discharging. The charge circuit automatically restarts the recharge once the voltage has gone below a certain level (crosses below the LVL_3 voltage threshold) The default LVL_3 voltage threshold is 3.902 volts which is at about 80-85% battery level as recorded by bq27500 chip. In my opinion, this is way too low. Setting the BCIMFTH2 register to 0xCB increases the voltage threshold to about 4.003 volts which is about 93%. Setting it to 0xDC may also be worthwhile, which is just over 95%. By default, if a user leaves their Pandora plugged in overnight, they may wake up to find their Pandora has stopped charging and the capacity has dropped to almost 80%, which can be quite startling to some users who will then report it as a bug. This change will ensure that it never drops below 93-95%, a much more acceptable level. Specific code changes suggested, in the /drivers/power/twl4030_bci_battery.c file, somewhere in the twl4030_bci_battery_probe function (or a function called by it), add the lines: /********************************/ #define KEY_FTH2 0x7F #define REG_BCIMFTH2 0x017 ret = twl4030_i2c_write_u8(TWL4030_MODULE_MAIN_CHARGE, KEY_FTH2, REG_BCIMFKEY); if (ret) return ret; ret = twl4030_i2c_write_u8(TWL4030_MODULE_MAIN_CHARGE, 0xDC, REG_BCIMFTH2); if (ret) return ret; /********************************/ (Move defines to the top, as appropriate)

 254 CoreBug ReportHigh Several apps leave graphical artefact overlay (ghost) a ...Closed
100%
Task Description After quitting some apps, their last graphical output remains on the screen, which covers a large area of the Pandora, and therefore makes it quite unusable, so that only a full restart resolves this issue. As this happens in many apps (Mednafen-GB, Dark Light Battles, etc) this must be a problem within a shared library (driver, graphics lib, window manager framework, or similar).
 202 CoreBug ReportLow Set Date and Time won't let you cancel or close Closed
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. If you use one of those buttons then a new window opens that says: "Error: Please select a timezone" and equally so for the date and time.

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 The Pandora resets if the battery is removed - even though its plugged to the AC Adapter. the power disapears for a second, and then the pandora notices that the power cable is actually plugged in, and immediately starts the pandora again
 136 CoreBug ReportHigh rather high battery discharge while Pandora is powered  ...Closed
100%
Task Description The Pandora does seem to use too much energy while it is turned off. A testcase: The pandora was turned off over night (about 8 hours) and battery state dropped from 98% to 96%. When removing the battery from the pandora for the same amount of time, the state is not changed at all. This is based on the zaxxon firmware release with hotfix3, beta2. Problem: if you don't use the pandora for a while and forget to remove the battery you can cause a deep discharge which might damage the battery. This is also a problem if the Pandora does eg shutdown itself since power is out and you can't directly attach it to a charger. Possible causes: * Design fault in the board. * Too much powered on while the device *should* be completely powered off. The only things that should get power are the clock and the power button. This should basically not drain much. Regarding the clock: The PalmPre is based on the OMAP3, too. There you basically have no discharge when it is powered off, so it is unlikely that the fault is in the OMAP3 itself.

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.
 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.
 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.
 189 CoreBug ReportMedium pnd-run.sh does not work correctly for very long <pathn ...Closed
100%
Task Description When unmounting, the pnd-run-script greps the output of "losetup -a" at some point. But if you have a very long pathname and filename for the pnd (like "/media/trans8/gamedata/scummvm/Secret_of_Monkey_Islands_Amiga_EN.pnd" then the endpart is cut off in the output, grep can't find the right part and the script get's confused. Example: mounting works: /usr/pandora/scripts/pnd_run.sh -p /media/trans8/gamedata/scummvm/Secret_of_Monkey_Islands_Amiga_EN.pnd -b scummvm -m unounting does not work: /usr/pandora/scripts/pnd_run.sh -p /media/trans8/gamedata/scummvm/Secret_of_Monkey_Islands_Amiga_EN.pnd -b scummvm -u (see /tmp/pndrun*-logs for output) The problem is that the outut of losetup looks like this in such a case: "/dev/loop7: [b309]:157081 (/media/trans8/gamedata/scummvm/Secret_of_Monkey_Islands_Amiga_*)" And because the pnd-name is not fully shown, grepping the name does not work. After i renamed th pnd to a much shorter name (somi_amiga_en.pnd) it worked nicely. Still this should be fixed.
 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.

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.

 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.

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.

 233 CoreBug ReportVery Low op_power.sh: errors Closed
100%
Task Description op_power.sh gives some errors to me... it works anyway, but it's not nice to see them all the time. /usr/pandora/scripts/op_power.sh: line 60: [: 5380: binary operator expected or /usr/pandora/scripts/op_power.sh: line 60: [: too many arguments I guess line 60 of op_power.sh if [ ! $wlstate ]; then should rather be if [ -z "$wlstate" ]; then shouldn't it? The same thing is in line Then sometimes also rm: cannot remove `/tmp/wlstate': No such file or directory or cat: /tmp/wlstate: No such file or directory which could easily be fixed by adding a test -f /tmp/wlstate && or something like that before the respective command. I just added a lot of test, I'm not sure if every single one of them is really needed, but better too much than not enough, I would say. :-) I can't attach a file (I click the button and nothing happens), so I just paste it there: http://nopaste.info/2256365eba.html It's a bit longer because some indentations were wrong (and I corrected them) and I changed all indentations to tabs = 8 spaces instead of 2.
 332 CoreBug ReportMedium op_lidsettings.sh and op_power.sh scripts fail for some ...Closed
100%
Task Description

/usr/pandora/scripts/op_lidsettings.sh and /usr/pandora/scripts/op_power.sh fail for some usernames due to poor shell scripting

 

these scripts find their config files by grepping /etc/passwd for the uer currently running xfce4-session, but the loose regexp matches too much. this shell fragment from op_lidsettings.sh:

 

grep /etc/passwd -e $(ps u -C xfce4-session | tail -n1 | awk '{print $1}')| cut -f 6 -d ":"

 

when a use called "me" is logged in, returns

 

/home/root

/usr/games

/var/run/dbus

/home/me

 

rather than just "/home/me"

 

all instances of that construct (reading and writing settings, in both op_lidsettings.sh and op_power.sh) should be changed to

 

grep /etc/passwd -e ^$(ps u -C xfce4-session | tail -n1 | awk '{print $1}'): | cut -f 6 -d ":"

 

to correctly match only the complete username field in /etc/passwd

 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:

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.

Task Description often but not always after shutting down the system (xfce logout, choose shutdown) thereĀ“s a problem when booting again. i got the normal bootscreen but when x an xfce should start the screen remains black. i cannot say if the x or xfce didnĀ“ start or if it is a problem with the backlight intensity. rebooting with pandora key and power key leads to the same situation. the only thing that seems to help is to remove the battery shortly. so, what is the difference beetween reboot after powerdown and reboot after replacing the battery? there could be the point to fix this problem.
