263 | Application | Bug Report | Critical | MiniMenu with "Auto discover pnd apps?" set to NO hangs ... | Closed | |
Task Description
BUG DESCRIPTION:
On my SD card with Pandora OS 1.6.4 I changed MiniMenu's setting "Auto discover pnd apps?" to NO, and then the program remained in an endless loop showing "Setting up menu...", crashing, "Setting up menu...", crashing, and so on.
BUG REPRODUCTION:
The variable filesystem.do_pnd_disco set to the value 0 definetely causes the crash, but maybe only in conjunction with some of my other settings?!
Therefore see my attached config file mmpref.conf.
Maybe related to FS#79 , hard to tell, as this is a very minimal report.
Definitely not related to my previously reported MiniMenu bug FS#262
WORKAROUND:
1) If your default GUI is:
a) MiniMenu: Then after rebooting, MiniMenu will still be caught in an endless loop! Therefore boot up from an auxilary/temporary volume rather than your volume with the damaged MiniMenu! If your ruined system is on the NAND boot from an SD card, if the ruined system is on SD card, boot from NAND or another SD card. In doubt read: http://pandorawiki.org/Running_Linux_from_an_SD_card
b) Other than MiniMenu such as XFCE: Then you are lucky. Simply start into XFCE, and continue with the next step.
2) Open ~/.mmpref.conf with a text editor and set the variable filesystem.do_pnd_disco to the value 1.
3) Reboot into your healed volume. |

237 | Core | Bug Report | Critical | /dev/mmcblkN - N sometimes points to left, sometimes to ... | Closed | |
Task Description
SPECIFICATION:
According to http://pandorawiki.org/SD_compatibility_list
/dev/mmcblk0 is the left SD card slot (the one being closer to the headphone check)
/dev/mmcblk1 is the right SD card slot
I trusted that device path specification.
And it was correct MOST of the time.
But sadly only most of the time, NOT ALWAYS!!!
This bug is severely dangerous, as a (possibly critical) command could unexpectedly affect a device other than the one you intended it for!
BUG INCIDENT:
Sadly, I realized this bug at the worst possible moment!
I issued the command: shred -fvz /dev/mmcblk0
but it erased the card in the RIGHT slot.
I realized that because the card inserted on the left has 16GB, and the one on the right 128MB.
I checked both the card positions and my entered command, to exclude my own mistake. Sadly it was not a clumsy mistake: This severe bug really exists!
BUG REPRODUCIBILITY:
I already slightly witnessed this bug during the last days, but thought it was just a coincidence.
I.e. in GParted the larger card showed up at the wrong device path.
I did a refresh and/or ejected/re-inserted the card, and the expected device path was back again, and I did not think further about this incident.
Only today with this fatal shred incident, I eventually realized this behavior is a bug.
Luckily I had my data backed up. |

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. |

Task Description
I had beta 1 of hotfix 3, and there turning the pandora into a cardreader worked fine for that card. However, I just installed the latest hotfix 3 final, but that one fails to unmount. Attached is the pndrunop_storage.out. Apparently something's going wrong with the splitting of the partition name, as it tries to unmount /dev/mmcblk0 instead of /dev/mmcblk0p1
Manually unmounting it by using sudo umount /dev/mmcblk0p1 does work, but then I can't use the tool because that apparently only lists mounted memorycards. |

31 | Core | Bug Report | High | X11 Crashing with omapfb | Closed | |
Task Description
Cleaned up a bit.
* Mouse is inverted if you run SDL Games from the console.
* Mouse is not properly calibrated when you run SDL Games under X fullscreen. Fixed with notaz patch that also fixes the X11-Crash with omapfb (see below)
Regarding the X11-Crash when using SDL-Fullscreen-Apps together with omapfb:
notaz nailed down the problem: It's actually xf86-input-tslib's fault-
omapfb only acted as catalizator here, causing SDL to use different code path and call different X functions.
His patch also almost increases the touchscreen problem (see above): It runs perfect for games in 800x480.
However, on small issue is left on apps with lower resolution which use their own mouse cursor:
As soon as you move the mouse outside of the game resolution (i.e. SuperTux runs 640x480), the mouse cursor stops at the end of the virtual screen and you have an offset.
This only seems to happen when the game uses it's own mouse cursor. If you go to the level editor of SuperTux and leave, the normal X cursor appears and the problem doesn't occur anymore.
So this is probably something that needs to be fixed in the game, not in the driver.
A compiled version (for testing):
http://notaz.gp2x.de/tmp/tslib_drv.so --- needs to be copied here: /usr/lib/xorg/modules/input/tslib_drv.so |

ALSA crashes pretty often. Not sure, but I think it does this when something is eating up a lot of CPU.
ALSA starts to spit out buffer_underrun errors and occasionally crashes with an input/output error.
Then no sound will come from an SDL app.
You can reinitialize it by playing a song with XMMS. |

76 | Core | Bug Report | High | Wifi connection lost under high CPU load | Closed | |
Task Description
I noticed that when I tried Quake 3 a while back that I would lose my internet connection. Only the very first time I tried it did it ever find a couple thousand servers and let me join a map. Since then, it always dies and I never see any servers.
I wasn't too concerned yet because maybe it's just Q3 doing something but tonight mplayer was running full screen and then suddenly it started chugging and the network manager popped up that it was trying to connect (spinning logo at the bottom). Since you only get one shot at network manager per boot, it was a lost cause.
The correlation I make here was that I'm sure the CPU was under heavy load for both cases but I haven't tried other programs to see what happens. I didn't have any games on this card tonight. Can anyone repeat this problem or is it a known issue? |

81 | Core | Bug Report | High | pandora seems to hang during boot, turns out it didn't | Closed | |
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. |

136 | Core | Bug Report | High | rather high battery discharge while Pandora is powered ... | Closed | |
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. |

173 | Core | Bug Report | High | X uses 100% cpu in low power mode | Closed | |
Task Description
After 10 minutes in low power mode X seems to go nuts and use 100% CPU. Obviously this is bad ;-) 14MHz isn't *that* slow, so there's obviously something getting wedged.
I haven't been able to figure out exactly what's happening, but the fact that it always occurs after exactly 10 minutes suggests its power management related. Maybe we're getting stuck trying to kick off the screensaver, or something?
Hacking op_power.sh do disable screen blanking shows that, unsurprisingly, the screen freezes at the same time X goes AWOL.
Pressing the power switch brings the device out of low power mode, though there is often a few seconds additional delay as the event handling scripts take longer than normal to run because the CPU is already busy.

top -b -d 60 > toplog &

195 | Core | Feature Request | High | Start re-recharge of battery sooner | Closed | |
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

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 :) |

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.

259 | Core | Bug Report | High | Hold switch does NOT lock keyboard! Especially crucial ... | Closed | |
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. |

261 | Core | To Do (Reminder) | High | Overview of all current KEYBOARD INPUT related issues | Unconfirmed | |
Task Description
Built-in keyboard input is a central thing on the Pandora, as it concerns almost all user interfaced apps!
I realized that I myself and also others submitted quite many reports concerning this issue.
Hence this meta issue is intended as an overview/accumulation/aid for those devs who are willing to overwork the whole issue.
If you realize new related issues, feel free to add them here.
If this my effort is contradicting the OpenPandora workflow, then pardon me, and instruct me, how else to handle issues of that kind. Thanks!

267 | Core | Bug Report | High | HF6-Updater.pnd loses pnd_run.sh | Closed | |
Task Description
Several users have reported that running HF6-Updater.pnd leads to a missing /usr/pandora/scripts/pnd_run.sh
Possibly the file is locked by the Updater itself when installing pandora-libpnd_1.0-r56.5_armv7a.ipk

98 | Application | Bug Report | Medium | Pidgin freezes (msn) | Closed | |
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. |

186 | Application | Bug Report | Medium | unusable "Manage LCD Gamma" tool | Closed | |
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. |
