    Usb 1.1 -> 2.0 Passthrough Device?

    I want one too! I wonder how hard it would be to build. Simple PCB, hub chip, caps, plug and socket... Or perhaps just fit an internal hub chip and wire it in.

    Fpga''s And Noobs

    Well I don't own a C-One, so I can't comment. I can't imagine its too complicated to run other peoples cores. Less so than scary unix scripts anyway. If you get one let me know if its any good! Jens tends to make good hardware though, so sure it is... Without the extension board, the C-One FPGA...

    Fpga''s And Noobs

    I'm not clear if you're after using existing cores or developing for one? I'm trying to get into FPGAs. I bought an Altera DE1 for this. You can download the Quartus Web edition for free for compiling VHDL or Verilog. Lots of simple labs for practice. It also has onboard SRAM,SDRAM, VGA and...

    World Of Goo @ 5 €

    Gets a lot better than the first level... But each to their own. I like it:)

    Psx4pandora

    Regarding the zipped iso stuff. There are compressed linux filesystems, but I believe they are all read-only. They compress files in chunks, so it doesn't need to decompress all 700MB to seek... Of course since they're read only it would be a bit of effort to set up. Perhaps run a little...

    Well, you're getting onto the philosophy of right and wrong there :unsure: If you go buy more happy people -> good and the right thing should make more people happier then...

    The Pirate Bay Trial - Your Views

    I think a level of piracy is healthy. Piracy!=theft, piracy doesn't support terrorism and doesn't deprive people of anything. The problem is it doesn't support anyone either, since there is no payment to the content creator. However for each pirated copy the person who gets the free copy is...

    Mobile Broadband

    So no direct plugging in keyboards or mice then, most of which are 1.1 or less... Thats a real shame. Well still happier to have 2.0 than 1.1 or 1.0:) Hmmmm. Wonder if they are any "right angle" usb hubs... Might make the stick easier to plug in anyway. Edit: Perhaps something like this -...

    Mobile Broadband

    Why is the hub needed? Doesn't the Pandora have a powered USB2 port? USB2.0 supports 1.1 and 1.0 devices - or its supposed to! As I understand it anyway...

    You Know, With The "decrease In Value" For The Value Of The

    Just guessing, but... The parts are paid for in dollars typically. So any funds they kept in pounds or euros will have got worth a lot less - 15-25%... Of course the dollar price _should_ have been reduced (and more parts available) due to lower demand to match. Anyway I'd hope that the...

    Kde4 On The Pandora

    This might help it run better, if memory is the concern... http://code.google.com/p/compcache/. A compressed ramdisk as a fast swapfile. Mark

    Can Teachers Swear At Students?

    Sometimes the swearing is to make the class feel the teacher is "one of them". Personally I never found that worked too well... Instead they got my respect by being smarter than me, controlling the class well and teaching me something useful. OTOH if the teachers are really losing it due to...

    Amaricas Entering A Possable Second Depression.

    Nah, there will be loads of unemployed bank developers who will have free time to write stuff... Until they starve of course.

    Amaricas Entering A Possable Second Depression.

    Yes, most likely. Though further reaching than the US. For further reading: http://www.greenenergyinvestors.com/index.php?showforum=2 At least we'll all have the Pandora to play with! No food, no job, no money, pah... Mark

    Worldwide Availability?

    The award for being incredibly unhelpful goes to _VWV_, Mistabeen and jakshep2. If you're going to say "use the search" at least put a link in! The "you must all be search gods and we won't help you if its been posted once before ever" attitude annoys me... Mostly because when I search for stuff...

    GP2X Reading Usb Keyboard

    Thought this might be of interest to people who find this thread in future... I've not tried it, but certainly looks simpler. QUOTE OTOH, Gnostic found another way to read the keyboard for Vice, and has posted his code here: http://www.gp32x.de/board/index.php?showt...43255&st=75 Also check...

    Gp2xpectrum 1.7.2 With Usb Keyboard Support!

    Cool. Was wondering if anyone ever looked at or used any of that code. I only released it as a private version of Atari800 to one person. There must be an easier way though! Its all incredibly annoying because so much of it would be simpler with a more current version of Linux. I'll have to...
