    No problem; I can generate a config similar to how it was in SZ. I assumed that my proposal would raise some controvery. ;-) Did you actually try my proposed solution, or do you only judge from the screenshot and description?  I have done a similar arrangement back then for the Zaurus (click...

    Hi guys, I created a first configuration for XFCE for you to test and comment on. The Panel: I have created a panel configuration in the most ergonomic way I could find for the Pandora: etc_xdg_xfce4__next_panel_hmc.tar.gz Simply untar this and replace your /etc/xdg/xfce4 contents with the...

    op_power.sh advice: keyboard light automatic switching

    Yes, you're right.<br /><br />However, when removing it, light stays on when suspending without mains connected.<br /><br />If I put the call into the "if suspend_real; then" branch, then it's funny: When on mains and switching off, light stays on, and then switching the unit on again, light...

    op_power.sh advice: keyboard light automatic switching

    But I do (indirectly): I call it from display_on(), which is called from lowPowerOff()... Just to make it sure, I added the kbd_light_on call to lowPowerOff directly, but it indeed makes no difference. Something else must be wrong.

    okay, I'll gladly care about that part of ergonomically configuring the panel. However, I don't know which settings are saved where. I also suspect, that some settings are saved per user in the user's home? Well, I'll try to figure this out. About the screensaver in first-boot wizard: I think...

    Here is my first report. I try to avoid stuff that has already be mentioned. However, I did not have the time to read all posts carefully, so please excuse I doubled something. - On first boot: Before CPU settings choice, display goes blank. Brought to live again by pressing a key. - Pandora...

    op_power.sh advice: keyboard light automatic switching

    Hi guys, still working on my configbutton plugin for controlling the keyboard light. The combination of plugin and scripts now works almost perfectly, except one thing: If the Pandora is connected to mains power and running, and I "press" the power switch shortly to bring the Pandora into...

    Reading value from /sys/class/... from C code

    great. Thanks! :-) That's it. The second fclose(fp) was a left-over from another kind of implementation. Often the problem is too simple. A half-layman as I am suspects a much more complicated problem, so doesn't look for so simple potential issues. Now it works. I'll optimize it, and my plan...

    Reading value from /sys/class/... from C code

    Hi guys, I need some advice from you please! I need to read the integer value (0 .. 255) from /sys/class/leds/pandora::keypad_bl/brightness into a variable in my C code (the keyboard light configbutton plugin). How can I do this properly? I have tried two approaches (the target variable is...

    WiFi slowdown / stalling. Advice?

    okay guys, I did some testing over the weekend.  The disassembled Pandora was not always acting well. It degraded in transmission speed over time again. So I reassembled both Pandoras again, but in different hardware combinations, several times. I tested different combinations of the...

    WiFi slowdown / stalling. Advice?

    oh thanks, I indeed missed it. Tested switching off power management now, and it did not help. Then I disassembled the entire Pandora, also separated the WiFi antenna from the screen (attached to it using conductive adhesive tape to join the grounds of the antenna and the screen). When...

    WiFi slowdown / stalling. Advice?

    Hi guys, I'm having trouble with one of my Pandoras. The WiFi seems to be broken I did some tests using wget, fetching a 200MB file from my web server, observing the throughput wget reports. Following results: Test with a reference Pandora, that works well: 500..700K/s (abt. 5..6 minutes...

    Release Qemu for Pandora (for rebirth competition)

    Okay guys, I did the following. But apperently I'm doing something wrong: I compiled the xev tool and executed it. It shows the key code for each pressed key. I decidede to use the "V" key for my testing. For the "V" key, xev displays the following. KeyPress event, serial 38, synthetic NO...
