I don't understand what you are saying here. By "configuring accessX to +sticky" do you mean configuring a button to access the X window system? I'm trying to find a combination to access the console VT's from within X or within a fullscreen game or application. On my PC I use CTRL+ALT+F2 to...

huh, on several forums I use the exact same avatar picture as that twitter user. SAITAMA!!!

Except, on the Pandora, when I use CTRL+ALT+Fn+2 it doesn't work. It's not about how easy it is to hit the combination, it's that the Fn key seems to not work properly while holding CTRL and ALT, or something. Whoops, missed this earlier. Then I guess the question is why VT_SWITCH bindings...

Awesome!! So, I skipped the keyboard wars. Quick question, with the F-keys requiring Fn+Number to use, is CTRL+ALT+F2 possible? I miss being able to switch to console with that combo on my Pandora. It almost doesn't feel like proper Linux if I can't just pop to a console whenever I want no...

Gentoo (like Debian) separates stable and testing. They are conservative when it comes to stable, but have bleeding edge packages available. In Gentoo you can decide which packages are bleeding edge and which are stable yourself. I wouldn't recommend going full bleeding edge for every single...

I don't have a lot of experience with Arch, but from what I've seen Pacman is an excellent package manager, one of the best around for binary packages. I've been told it can also do source-based installs, but is not built from the ground up for it the way Portage is. As for compiling, even on...

Another thing to keep in mind is the Pandora. We all waited a long time for that thing to be designed, built, and shipped to all pre-orderers. Despite tons of setbacks and drama, EvilDragon succeeded and built the most amazing handheld I've ever owned. BUT THEN, they didn't stop there, they...

Or Gentoo. Bleeding edge and maximum customization. I'm all about the Gentoo on all of my computers. It works EXACTLY how I want it to, with no bloat whatsoever. And Portage is an amazing package manager. Being able to use USE flags to compile every single package with exactly the features...

Hello! So, let me get this straight, your IT department is considering getting a Pyra for your employees? Are you hiring? I'll move to Canada instantly! I've already got a Pandora (and LOVE it) and am a life-long Linux user. I'll even accept whatever the minimum wage is, if I can use the...

Ok I just wanted to report, scanmem compiles fine and works great from github using Code::Blocks pnd. The GUI (GameConqueror) does not work but scanmem itself has full functionality. For fullscreen games and applications that I can't ALT+TAB or switch virtual desktops for, the way to go is to...

I have the same issue. I noticed it seems to work way more often if I tell PND Manager to download it to the first SD card in the left slot. If I try to download to the right slot SD card it gets to 100% and then sits there doing nothing and not installing it, every time. It happens on the...

Hmmm, did someone say Diablo II on rpi2?

What I really wonder is if the Pyra would see its native resolution as 720p or as 960x540 (Vufine display resolution). The website strongly implies it will accept only 720p input so I would assume they have it set up to report 720p as native. But yeah in any case making it work is very likely...

I like this idea. Already when I get a Pyra, my old Pandora will be re-purposed for TV-out or 2-player console emulation (over LAN along with Pyra). If and when a newer CPU board upgrade is released, it would be awesome if the old CPU board could be used to upgrade a TV into a really smart TV...

I carry a lot of stuff in my pockets, more than most people I know, and because of this over the years I've gravitated towards cargo pants. Every single pair of bottoms I own are cargo pants. No shorts, no jeans, nothing but cargo pants. In the winter I just throw a thick heavy hoodie on with...

Hello, I would just like to express my gratitude for the work you've done so far, and maybe make a humble request, if it's not too much trouble. Would it be feasible in your project given your time and priorities to eventually make available a tool that can take a .deb package or an aptitude...

It's Linux, wouldn't xrandr work?

According to the website, the vufine will only accept a 720p input signal via HDMI. The website says "General Rule: Vufine will only accept a 720p signal. Therefore, Vufine will be compatible with devices which output a 720p signal." Sounds like the Pyra would work just fine. I assume the...

I would like to request any decent memory editor. The Pandora doesn't seem to have any. By "memory edit" I mean like WinHack or GameHack or CheatEngine or the like. There's a bazillion of them for both Windows and Linux. Anything that lets you search a processes active memory for a value and...

How long does it take a pregnant Pandora to conceive a baby Pyra?
