After reading this thread I decided to make a few simple boot splash screens (800x454) and here they are to be shared with you gals and guys. Feel free to download them individualy or as a package attached to this post. Cheers ;-) pandora_boot_splash_800x454.zip

I do what mcobit has written, backup the home folder first and then copy it over to new one after flash. It restores most of the xfce related settings like keyboard shortcuts and even the wallpaper because I have it stored on the memory card so the link to it is always the same. Might restore...

Thanks for the confirmation. Enjoy your reward ;-)

It's payback time :-) http://repo.openpandora.org/?page=detail&app=wagic

Actually it doesn't blind me at all. I use it in fully open position and watching the screen/keyboard from 90° angle. LED is directed to the keys and is little bit intruded into the lid so my face is always in the shadow.

Nice!

Oh, patrick, that PIM for ncurses looks interesting. Could you please describe it more please? Google doesn't give me any usefull results when I ask for "ncurses pim suite". Do you think you can share how one can get this installed on Pandora. Thanks!

You can also have a look on various Nintendo DS XL cases. I've bought one with 8 pockets for SD cards for around 14 EUR. It's not exactly bomb proof like Link's boxes but totally fine for dropping it into your luggage.

Thanks for your hard work ptitSeb. I'm just getting myself familiar with Base and it seems that Wizards for creating forms, tables etc. are not working. Also there is less data types available for tables than in 3.x version on Windows. Could this be because of alpha status of 4.1 version?

Just an idea, could it be that system tries to check/index the filesystem of the freshly mounted card and you put it into the sleep in the middle of this operation? How much time it is between disconnecting the mass storage and switching into the sleep mode?

For SFX, maybe you could try SunVox dynamic library. It allows you to play and control SunVox songs. But I'm not sure if there is an ARM specific version or you can just use the normal linux version of it. If it works then you can either synthesize some SFX within SunVox or you can load samples...

Great that it works for you now. Indeed it was missing Java. ./run_gpsprune.sh: line 8: java: command not found

Nice one again!

Cool hack! I have a vague feeling that ED mentioned once those spare Nintendo DS hinge bits that can hold in various positions and they fit into Pandoras hinge hole. That might be less intrusive solution. www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B001O8M884/ref=redir_mdp_mobile

When it comes to PIM/Productivity weapons of choice, mine is org-mode, the holy grail I was searching for since Palm OS PIM suite days. Check out the features. It's CLI based (runs within Emacs which has X window version too), it's keyboard shortcut driven (=> really efficient if you manage to...

Hmm ... seems you might store some sensitive data seeing your job description. You would definitely need some sort of data security strategy. First and the most easy is TrueCrypt. I guess that could be an argument for your employer too, ensuring him about secure side of Pandora.

DAP's comment from the repo:  Could you please post the content of your /tmp/pndrun_gpsprune.out? Maybe you can try to install Oracla Java instead of OpenJDK Java. It's supposed to provide more compatibility.

You could also try to run Conky pnd although it shows slightly different numbers than "free h". SysInfo is even better.

I was missing Dropbox on Pandora too. My workaround is clunky but working for me: * install Pandebian * install Grsync in Pandebian from it's repo * install davfs2 in Pandebian from it's repo * make an account at box.com * follow this guide on mounting box.com as webdav Then everytime you...
