I'm aware of the fact, that linux always fills the ram with buffer and caching. But here is my output of `free -h`. As you can see, there is not much left for buffer and cache... gesamt benutzt frei gemns. Puffer/Cache verfügbar Speicher: 3,7G 3,1G...

@sebt3 makes sense... Maybe I will try to run the programm on a raspberry Pi. I'm getting curious how big the difference is...

Yes I compare x86-64 and armhf. You're right, that the memory footprint might be different on these architectures. But I think it will be similar... Screen size and using another Desktop-Environment might give me back 300MB of RAM. Java-Development is not really affected by this. The running...

This is my desktop PC running Eclipse and starting a Java-Software for Debugging. Firefox is running with only some essential Tabs. This is on Kubuntu 16.04. As you can see it already needs more than 2GB of RAM right after starting. The memory usage will get up while Programming/Debugging. So...

I plan also to do some Java-programming on the Pyra, while travelling. (Web-Applications with Eclipse as IDE and Firefox or any other browser) I'm afraid this is not feasible with 2GB of RAM.

@Grench You really seem to like plugging in stuff ;) Very appreciated! I also wasn't aware, that there is a notch to strap a cord. Really nice! Great pictures!

The sealing seems to be essential for a decent sound quality. Look At this news-post: It's loud

@Askarus thank's for the pictures. Some questions I have in mind, as you seem to already have used your Pyra for productive work: * How is the screen under sunlight? Is it readable? * How are the controls? How easy is it to use the nubs as mouse? (Although you're used to this method from...

Perfect, thanks! OpenJDK is perfectly fine for me! A JDK for Arm doesn't exist that long, iirc. I'm surprised, that it works out of the box.

Yes, it has: e.g. Surnames in Passports are printed in allcaps. So, all people who have a "ß" in their name could need a new passport.

ptitSeb Very nice! Could you also try if Eclipse Oxygen will run? In best case downloading, unpacking and running `./eclipse` should bring the IDE up. Download Page: https://www.eclipse.org/downloads/packages/eclipse-ide-java-ee-developers/oxygenr

There was a time, where Java and Flash in the browser was acceptable (Java not so much though...) I personally ever refused to learn flash-programming, because I always thought, that flash doesn't have a future and will die sooner or later. This was in the year 2004. Flash lived longer as I...

I think you mixed up Java and Javascript. Those are two completely different programming languages. Unluckily the name is similar. http://www.seguetech.com/java-vs-javascript-difference/ When talking about browsergames it's most probably Javascript and HTML5.

Very nice! The display looks crystal-clear. Big mystery about the Logo-Plate.

@Binky good point. Maybe I'll try it once I have a pyra in my hand.

@Binky the barometric sensor could be used for indoor navigation (e.g. change of floor level). I think it can also be used to get a faster GPS fix. (Not sure about that though) Another use-case would be the utilization of the pyra for a weather station. (Which is awesome in my opinion).

@pocak thanks for your response. I will update the wiki page regarding the information which is stated here: https://pyra-handheld.com/wiki/index.php?title=Mainboard

@hns that means the pyra can run stable in 2GB mode, even when there is a 4gb chip soldered on it? Gesendet von iPhone mit Tapatalk

For my trip to Greece this weekend I use my time on the plane playing Wario Land on my Gameboy Pocket. It's really fun!

Regarding the Pyra Wiki [1] there are three sensors soldered on the board. Is there a reason, why there are two pressure sensors? * The BME280[2] can measure: relative humidity, temperature and pressure * The BMP180[3] can measure: pressure * The BO055[4] is for orientation purposes The wiki...
