It's a joke. Backlight power circuit is known to introduce audible noise in mircophone inpuit, becase the two are located closely together on the PCB.

So that's what the '!' is for! But why does root have a password in the first place?

You mean I'd have a server without nubs?!?

There seems to be a hash in /etc/shadow for root user

It would, but: - I can't use both Pandoras at once, so my spare unit is working instead of just accumulating dust. - I have access to a Pandora from everywhere so I can answer pandora-related questions here on the forum - I got my second pandora for 95€ plus shipping, so a Pi with equivalent...

Hello all, I'm using my Pandora as a server to share family photos and the like. I also have an SSH access to it in case I need to access personal files or do remote maintenance. Of course, from day one there are lots of "hackers" from around the world who try to login to my SSH server as...

Well we have screen backlight for that on the pandora don't we? =) Personally I wouldn't mind having a built-in webcam for barcode reading and whatnot, but I recogize I'm a minority on this one.

Update: I tried to permanently lock my SD card. The correct command for it is "perm", not "permlock". Anyway, the card just ignored the command and didn't lock.

Repairing the mini USB or the barrel jack connector is an option if you have the skills. Re-soldering a mini USB port requires quite some skills (it's easy to accitentally solder all pins together, and hard to split them back). Besides, judging by the photo I wouldn't be surprised that your mini...

On both of my units brightness behaves oddly when set below the default minimum. The CC pandora starts flickering, and the GHz unit increases the level of brightness instead of decreasing when going from 3 to 1. Actually, sometimes the CC pandora starts flickering even at level 3, I usually set...

How do I place a request for a spare nub and a spare LCD cable?

Do you mind to share a link?

I have a 16 MB card which came with my first digital camera. Maybe I'll try this weekend =)

While looking for low-level SD software, I have found this program called sdtool, I want to share. The binary version for R-Pi works on the Pandora as well. You can use it to enable temporary write protection on your card: sudo umount /dev/mmcblk0p* sudo sdtool /dev/mmcblk0 lock sudo sdtool...

What inconvenience? Do you have trouble finding a mini USB cable?

Most probably yes. There is little reason to fake less than a half of the capacity. I also have a 64 GB card bought for a similar price.

Posting to this topic should require a 5$ donation for the Pyra keymat mold. That way ED will have enough money for it in no time :)

Not sure if any of the CC units have the same issue, but it definitely comes from the antenna/cable. Connecting an external antenna cures it completely.

"Turn off screen" is the only option compatible with wifi at all, so it's active on both units. The speed drop is clearly related to the distance between the lid and the rest of the unit. When the distance is 3cm or more (~20-25 degrees angle) there is no noticeable effect. At about 2cm (~15...

Hello, I was transferring a big file from a CC Pandora to a GHz Pandora over WIFI. Since the transfer was taking much longer than expected, I decided to investigate the cause of the slowdown, and  was surprised to find that it was CC unit's lid which was affecting the transfer. Below are the...
