    Can Someone Tell Me About Standby?

    Voltage management and frequency management are two different methods of power management. To my understanding, the Pandora currently only does frequency scaling.

    Steam Linux Client

    This is for x86 linux and therefore of no use to us, period.

    Swing!

    Looks like the only JVM implementation with awt and swing support that runs on this platform is closed-source commercial software, specifically PERC from Aonix. Not what any of us wanted to hear, I know, but looks like that's just how it is.

    First Game/app On Your Pandora

    First non-gaming app? Bootloader First gaming app? Depends on what's available. Likely a Genesis, SNES, or GB/GBC emulator.

    [Yapp] Pandora Nightmares?

    No. You're a nutter. The devices are going to be tested, and a handheld is durable enough to withstand quite a bit of mishandling in shipping.

    Do You Use A Gnu/linux Distro On Your Main Computer?

    No. No way. I'm a UNIX user, not a Linux user. I hate the direction Windows is going. My client computers are Macs. My NAS server is OpenSolaris. Linux can't touch either at the uses I've deployed them for. For the NAS, Linux has nothing that can touch in-kernel ZFS. The combination of...

    Csound/pd & Pro Audio

    Why would you WANT your mic not to be flat? whenever you want that kind of sound, just apply an EQ. You'll be in much better shape than trying to EQ out a mic's peaks.

    Pandora And Japanese

    I honestly *HATE* Japanese on Linux. SCIM is one of the buggiest apps I've ever used, often crashing X or simply making typing impossible until X is restarted. Tried it on various distros and window managers, it's always SCIM+anthy causing problems. Anki works great on x86 linux. It's open...

    Pandora-Tan Character Art

    If you think a Pandora-tan should be hot instead of cute, you don't know what a -tan is. Please read the links posted by nik166 2 posts above.

    Pandora-Tan Character Art

    Saejinoh's (Posted by Tom) is the best by far. Tans should be cute, not hot. Edit: Fixed attribution.

    Add Firewire

    No. Firewire cannot be added to the Pandora in any way.

    Nintendo Ds Emulation On Pandora

    Just carry your DS with you. It's not a huge deal, guys. None of the qualified devs seem to be working on emulating it, and given the magnitude of the task it will probably be a year after someone STARTS working on it before it's fully playable. On a more upbeat note, Pandora has led me to...

    Please Excuse My Ignorance

    Probably not. XFCE uses GTK+, which many consider a somewhat resource-heavy toolkit. Yeah, XFCE is still lightweight in comparison to KDE or Gnome, but other WMs like E17, Matchbox, IceWM, or Sawfish have it well beat for resource consumption. The major advantage of XFCE is that it feels...

    Nintendo Ds Emulation On Pandora

    I've done some research into this. My conclusion is "Not gonna happen for a good while" I'm sure emulation experts like Exophase can say this much more eloquently than I can, but there are a few issues we're looking at. First, let's look at what EVERYONE thinks of first, just to get it out of...

    Us Pandorites, How Will You Mobile Internet?

    I've been researching this a bit myself (I'm in the USA, so I'll be discussing options there). It really depends on what networks have good coverage in your area, what policies allow tethering, and whether or not you need voip. -Mifi from Sprint or Verizon looks to be the best option...

    What Have You Bought While Waiting For Your Pandora?

    I bought an MSI Wind U123 netbook. My previous laptop died (connector to power cable no longer had contact) and Pandora still seemed a long way off at the time (Early summer). I do not regret the decision.

    Coverting Movies Already

    Saving space is still a good reason to convert video ahead of time. What I'd like is a utility (a bash script for an encoder perhaps) that I can run on my library to do the following: -Don't touch audio -If smaller than or equal to 800x480 do nothing, keep current file. -If aspect ratio is...

    Android Topic

    What would be more useful for more people would be a VM to run Android apps. The OS itself is not particularly interesting IMO.
