I hope someone can help me! I left my Pyra unattended copying some files earlier (from an external powered USB drive to a micro sd card), and mistakenly the power cable connected to the otg port slipped out. When I returned, the Pyra was powered off. I expect its battery is now completely...

Agreed. Both threads could be related; my original post is regards usage of the micro-USB3 port with an OTG cable. The ssd storage device does actually work when directly connected to the full sized USB2 ports (and doesn't need additional power). Tried additional 2A power via the OTG cable...

Yes, agreed. It's one of my favourites. I love all of the history in his novels that mix favourite characters and families with real events and people. I know some of the locations well. As to random numbers, the TrueRNG3 is working really well. The avalanche effect in a device that works. I...

Understood, thanks. The OTG cable includes a standard USB for additional power too, but that is not helping. Will try again and get a hub also. 1622719372 Thanks. Have tried different cables to no avail. These cables work on my Note3 as well.

Ah! Have read "Cryptonomicon", "Quicksilver" and "The Confusion" . Am now in 1714 in "The System of the World" and then I believe my hero Enoch appears in a couple of later ones too! The random number assessment piece of er and libenoch is called "Pyx mode" after the "Trial of the Pyx". Still...

I paired my precious Pyra with a hardware random number generator to create one time pads. I enjoy fiddling about with encryption and have coded my first mini project exclusively on the Pyra. It's coded in C with use of gcc, geany and standard make. It comprises of a command line utility...

Hi all, I am a long time lurker and a very proud owner of a Pyra. I am trying to get a USB3 storage device (Samsung ssd) working with the Pyra using a USB OTG cable and cannot get it to work. The device works when plugged directly into the Pyra USB2 port. Also, it works fine using the same...

Nice one! Success! Thanks to all. I duplicated the imagemount line in the script and got that working, and also tried ingoreis's new QEMU PND. The other options on the new PND are very useful - but I had problems getting networking running properly on my Tiny Core guest (my issue I am sure...

Thanks ingoreis! Interesting. I didn't realise you could put host devices in the QEMU GUI image file locations. I have the HDD one already used (as I have an ext3 image to provide persistency for TinyCore linux), and the CD one is the TinyCore boot CD image. I currently use a QEMU -boot option...

Ok thanks anyway T4b. Your suggestion does work of course, but then you get into all sorts of stuff regards BD Volume IDs and the like. These details are only present on the disc (and not in a produced image from dd for example). Makemkv decrypts and backs up the data (extracting and utilising...

It's just about backups. I wish to decrypt my Blu Ray discs, and makemkvcon is an excellent tool to do so. Unfortunately it comes with a i386 binary blob. 

Hello all! First post and a Pandora noob. Absolutely loving it! Ok, I am not sure this is 'do able', but am giving it a go anyway... Objective : 'Unencrypt and Backup my blu ray's to an SDXC with my Pandora' I am trying to run some linux software (makemkv) that unfortunately is not open...
