155 | Core | Bug Report | Medium | Critical problems after rescaling GLES2 X windows | Unconfirmed | |
Task Description
When a X window which is displaying GLES2 render output is:
- Either dragged out of the visibile screen region (?)
- Is made larger than it was at the creation time of the GLES2 context
then:
- The performance will drop significantly as the EGL buffer swaps won't occur as fast as before,
- The render output will be corrupted and flicker
- In rare occasions crashes the application or locks up the entire system (which forces you to remove the battery)
The problem can not be solved without restarting the application (Possibly forcing players to complete the same goals again as they were unable to reach a savepoint or similar things).
This was confirmed in Mupen64Plus and the PowerVR GLES Samples and some of my own projects (which are, however, based on the PowerVR samples).
As I didn't see any other reports about this problems (but had it confirmed by other Pandora users too) I would expect that it can be fixed by using a newer X, kernel or combination of them as other OMAP users would be effected too. |

302 | Core | Bug Report | Low | Correct keymap not available during login process | Closed | |
Task Description
The correct keymap, as matching the characters printed on the keys, is available when running the First Boot Wizard, but not during login.
This means that special characters like ! ( ) and so on, which you enter via Fn-[2nd key] cannot currently be used in a username nor password.
My first experience with my Pandora was therefore that I had to reflash the OS due to this as I had locked myself out because I used a special character in my first chosen password.

FLAWED BEHAVIOUR:
Copy and paste only works between 2 active applications. This is very limiting!
If you are in the single task oriented MiniMenu you have no chance at all to share the clipboard between apps!
If you are in the multi tasking oriented XFCE desktop environment you can only share between apps running in parallel! Not with apps which started after the source app has been terminated.
DESIRED BEHAVIOUR:
The clipboard content (within reasonable limits of course) should remain, regardless of the source application, so that you can paste at any later moment into any application. |

234 | Core | Feature Request | Medium | Changeable behaviour when closing the lid | Closed | |
Task Description
As it was requested on forum.gp2x.de and I think it's a good idea I've written some scripts to allow the user to change what happens when the lid is opened/closed.
There are 3 Settings:
-The old behaviour (turning off the screen)
-Go into low power mode
-Shutdown
Default behaviour is still the same: Turn the screen off. Maybe we could change this to low power mode? I don't know.
I made a lot of changes to op_lid.sh: http://pastebin.com/GT3qxWSx (diff: http://pastebin.com/Z8GwpDj8 )
I changed line 11 in op_power.sh to: if [ $powerstate -ne 0 ]; then
And wrote a gui for changing the setting using zenity: http://pastebin.com/9JvSTqfQ
(I still can't upload any files, don't know if it's the fault of my browser, that's why I use this paste service) |

This should start playing the file from the firs minute, instead on the pandora the file plays from the start.
I've tried the same code in a debian (sid) chroot (from extend utils) and it works correctly, as it does on my pc (debian wheezy).
I suspect that the issue may be present also in .next (I've done a very quick test on a friend's pandora).

226 | Core | Feature Request | High | Boot from /dev/sda devices requested | Closed | |
Task Description
Boot from usb hard disk not supported. This should be a rather simple fix of adding the sdx devices and adjust the boot scripts??
I was able to put this autoboot.txt on mmc 0:1
setenv bootargs debug root=/dev/sda1 rw rootdelay=2 console=ttyS0,115200n8 vram=6272K omapfb.vram=0:3000K
ext2load sda 0:1 0x80300000 /boot/uImage
bootm 0x80300000
This failed with amongst other things "Block device sda 0 not supported" and something about failing to load kernel
So I then changed the autoboot file to this
setenv bootargs debug root=/dev/sda1 rw rootdelay=2 console=ttyS0,115200n8 vram=6272K omapfb.vram=0:3000K
ext2load mmc 0:3 0x80300000 /boot/uImage
bootm 0x80300000
All this did was die after the kernel loaded.
I believe I could much better make use of this device if I could boot from some faster storage, please advise :) |

304 | Core | Bug Report | Low | bluetooth serial port sleep causes lost / frozen connec ... | Closed | |
Task Description
I experienced (reliably) 3 times that if I had an idle ppp/rfcomm connection to my phone, it would eventually freeze so that the phone reported no active bluetooth connection and the pandora ppp would still think that the connection is active, but no data would flow. Killing pppd and re-trying would fail opening of the rfcomm link with "Host is down".
Disabling & enabling bluetooth "fixed" this so that pppd worked again (so it is not the phone that was "down").
Adding these lines to op_bluetooth_work.sh (apparently atleast) fixed it for me:
add between lines 14-15:
echo 0 > /sys/devices/platform/omap_uart.0/sleep_timeout
(or at any place during enable for that matter)
And to disable (before exit 0, line 30) to save power when bluetooth is off and restore normal settings:
echo 10 > /sys/devices/platform/omap_uart.0/sleep_timeout
I remember mentioning this way back when I last tested bluetooth, but got a reply that this should not be needed because we have flow control between the bt chip and pandora. But if a sleeping serial port loses a character when somebody sends a burst to it, what could flow control do? If it reported not ready to receive, the character would never be sent (and things would freeze...). If it reports ready to receive (what I think it does) the character will be lost. One would need to periodically disable the serial port sleep (and enable ready to receive) for a moment to check for pending data, but I think this would use more power than keeping the serial port active and/or possibly cause way too big delays.
I'm not really certain of this thing (whether this is a workaround, hack or a real fix... and whether my interpretation of what is happening is correct - i have no real proof), but I think that reporting what I've found is better than not. (And am I the only user of bluetooth with an old phone for internet (ppp+rfcomm, not pan)? ...) |

131 | Core | Bug Report | Medium | bluetooth drivers read timeout too trigger-happy/logic ... | Closed | |
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 |

320 | Core | Bug Report | Low | Bluetooth connection lost after wake-up from sleep mode | Unconfirmed | |
Task Description
When an internet connection was established through a mobile phone (Android, tethering) via bluetooth, the internet connection will not be re-established when the Pandora was sent to sleep and woken up again. The Pandora seems to be connected to the mobile phone, but no internet connection can be established, not even when manually trying to connect. The only way out is to disable bluetooth and enable it again.

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.

ALSA crashes pretty often. Not sure, but I think it does this when something is eating up a lot of CPU.

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. |

225 | Core | Bug Report | Medium | ads7846 reports odd pressure values | Unconfirmed | |
Task Description
using evdev xorg drivers and not the tslib drivers you can receive pressure axis data however there is
a problem with the values reported by the ads7846 module and the evdev driver has no calibration property for pressure
using
xinput test touchscreen
you can see the pressure axis ranging from 120-ish for hard press to about 150-170 for light press (low pressure values can
be quite erratic)
I could possibly hack the evdev module to possibly do something with this odd and narrow range of values, but I rather think looking
at the source that the ads7846 module needs some work.
is there a git tag that has a known working configuration? as I've had problems getting the kernel to compile the last few times I attempted... |

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. ;) |

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

113 | Core | Feature Request | Low | Add aliases for bash, eg ll for ls -l. Just uncommentin ... | Closed | |
Task Description
Aliases like ll for "ls -l" are common. They are super useful on the Pandora (less to type, no Fn key needed).
The .bashrc already includes them but they are commented. Please enabled the ls aliases and colored output. I do not think enabling the "-i" aliases too would be a good idea. |
