    Firmware suggestion: "Java is not installed" dialog

    Great idea.  This, or the "open web page" button, both require an Internet connection. So why not directly offer to download the PND (provided there is a static link to the latest PND version). For those users, who do not have an Internet connection at that time, I suggest to add simple...

    Wow, great! Please report your experiences with this module. I'll be a glad user of it, too, in about two weeks when I will be back from vacations.

    How to show verbose text at boot up?

    There is also a temporary solution, that can be done while booting: Hit Alt-LeftArrow (This is from memory, I hope I remember correctly)

    Firmware suggestion: "Java is not installed" dialog

    A nice addition could be to have a button (GUI) or key (terminal) that launches the system's default browser with the PND URL (as a compromise, because PNDManager cannot be launched with a spedific PND page). However, I don't know if URL opening with default browser currently works on Pandora...

    What was the first game you ever played? Can you remember?

    Yeah, for me it was either Giana Sisters on C64 when visiting my cousin who had one, or it was something like.Pacman or Space invaders on the first 286 PC of my father with an amber 13" screen, 20MB hard disc and 640 kB of RAM. ;-)

    Pandora desktop stand - hacking office use ergonomy

    This looks awesome. I would be very interested in such a stand, and I know some people who I assume would also be interested, certainly depending on the price. So if you can give a rough price estimation, it would be great.

    DisplayLink external DVI/VGA display on SuperZaxxon firmware: Request for assistance

    d'oh, of course. opkg list-installed.  It's really annoying that I forget about the obvious checks if I only pause to use the Pandora for a few weeks on that level. Okay, xf86-video-udlfb is installed of course, and contains two files: /etc/X11/xorg.conf.displaylink...

    DisplayLink external DVI/VGA display on SuperZaxxon firmware: Request for assistance

    I just found the second post of this thread ;-) hmmm... I waited a few days. ;-) Is it integrated into the firmware already? If so, how can I check if it's working?

    DisplayLink external DVI/VGA display on SuperZaxxon firmware: Request for assistance

    okay, seems if I could use some help now. :-P I tried to compile the xf-video-udlfb driver, using the same procedure as for SL4P back then, using the Code::Blocks PND as the development environment (command line tools): git clone http://git.plugable.com/webdav/xf-video-udlfb/ cd...

    DisplayLink external DVI/VGA display on SuperZaxxon firmware: Request for assistance

    Okay guys, finally flashed SZ 1.54 final to NAND, installed CodecPack and executed the Pandora OS upgrader, that installed a few new packages, mainly gstreamer packages. So probably nothing DisplayLink-relevant, so consider my system a fresh SZ 1.54 flash. Booted up, connected DisplayLink, got...

    Firmware suggestion: "Java is not installed" dialog

    If the Java PND has not been executed yet to install Java, how about if there was a script /usr/bin/java preinstalled in Pandora OS, that triggers a zenity infobox, stating that Java is not installed and asking the user to install it via the Java PND (giving the repo URL or even starting...

    hmc Hardware Hack #1: Keyboard LED Light

    sure, it is possible. There are scripts handling such events, that also care about the display backlight (for the lid close / open event) and other things, such as WiFi, Bluetooth etc. (for sleep / wakeup). Just add the LEd script to those even handling scripts.  I planned to do that here...

    What was the first game you serioiusly played on your pandora

    1. Giana's Return (I began to play that game on the Viliv N5, even before I got the Pandora, but on the Pandora it's much better playable :-) 3. Back then it was a CC (classic) Pandora 4. "New Super Mario" for Nintendo DS using Drastic, Giana Sisters using UAE4ALL and Vice and I like Super...

    Firmware inclusion request to ED: script for keyboard LED illumination control

    Yoyobuae is right.  The script is only there in the rootfs, only visible if you look for it in the scripts directory. It allows to easily set the LED brightness without using sudo, just using a call of the script (from a PND, from the Configbutton Plugin I wrote, or whatever). Regarding...

    Firmware inclusion request to ED: script for keyboard LED illumination control

    Hi, should this be requested this way and done by ED or some other Pandora OS maintainer, or should I make such changes by myself using git or something? If I should do this by myself, can anyone give some initial hints please? I am not familiar with contributing to the Pandora OS yet. The...

    "Palmtop Meeting" in Pforzheim

    Hi guys, anyone here from Southern Germany or Eastern France or so, who is interested in joining our regular "Palmtop Meeting" that's normally in Stuttgart, but this time in Pforzheim? So far this was a meeting organized for users of the HP 200LX Palmtops, but as the number of 200LX users gets...
