Are you aware of Arch Linux ARM? (Formerly called PlugApps; before that, PlugBox). It has a large collection of Arch packages compiled for ARM. wejp has a tarball working on Pandora.

Yep, don't blame milkshake for that, that one's my fault. There have been occasional reports of PNDstore having downloads effectively stop, but I don't know what could cause it. It might be that Python's inbuilt downloader just isn't as robust as that of a browser. But hopefully MilkyTest...

Perhaps try the "--fullscreen", "--hide-menubar", "--hide-borders", and "--hide-toolbars" options when launching a terminal. Remember, when launching a PND, the PND will have to open the terminal itself; this gives it an opportunity to adjust the terminal window as it needs. I've used ncurses's...

There are a few free CAD programs, though none that I really like. FreeCAD looks promising, in that its design is of the same family as Solidworks, which I've grown to enjoy, but it has much development ahead of it. It doesn't even support sketch-based features yet. BRL-CAD is venerable, but...

EVERYONE: PND here Wait.path_name = "os.getcwd()"Oh dear :rolleyes: What I meant was to replace everything in the function with a call to the os.getcwd function. It's useless as a string, and it's extra useless when the rest of the code just sets it back to the home directory. That is, it...

I just noticed that it's writing save data to the home directory, whereas any PND should be writing to the appdata directory (which is generally the current directory in any running PND). In util.py, just change function get_config_path to simply return os.getcwd(). Once you do that, make sure...

Ooh! Ooh! Since it's a pure Python program with all dependencies already on Pandora, it's a good candidate for use with distPND. It needs a few small changes to work with a Distutils setup script, but it's easy: Install distPND and squashfs-tools. In lib, create an empty file called...

freamon: Could it also be put in a PND and uploaded to the repo? That would help its popularity around here.

It's not SDLK_END, you want K_END for B, and K_LALT (or maybe K_RALT?) for Start. Take a look at my modifications to BubbMan 2 to see buttons in action. Also, PNDstore doesn't expose all of libpnd, only the parts that it needs (and it's not even Pythonic :P ). But the wrapper it uses is...

I am confused. What do you mean when you say you "compiled" an ipk? ipk, like PND, is just a package format, not an executable binary. So how are you executing it? Furthermore, the error you see is from Python, which is an interpreted language that doesn't need to be compiled. So a number...

You're a well-written individual. I like you. But in response to your #3, why would you limit yourself to emulators and ROMs? I'm not much for emulators myself; I'm here for 1) a pocketable computer, and 2) homebrew/indie gaming. Maybe you have no need for general computation, but I find it...

Well that's not a very helpful error message :P . But looking at the package details, it seems to be available for only one specific feed, which is probably not the feed that the Pandora uses. You can try downloading and installing that package manually, but I expect it won't work (it says it...

I don't understand this. Pandora's Python is version 2.6, and the python-numpy package seems to depend on Python 2.6. I can't test it myself, but I don't know why it wouldn't install for you. Could you copy opkg's error messages?

Could you clarify on what went wrong? Copy and paste the error messages. Adding r should have worked (remember, the r comes immediately before the quotation mark). I wouldn't suggest relative paths here; they're important for cross-platform programs, but a school assignment only needs to work...

First: Welcome! Second: I think you may be in the wrong place. This forum is for the Pandora handheld, and this specific board is about using Python on the Pandora. You should probably look for a community dedicated to Python if you want help with it, but since we're here, I'll try to help...

To elaborate: pndstore_core is a library. But as a Python library, it may be difficult to incorporate in non-Python applications. And yes, many people around here, like Cloudef, are more competent than I, so libmilky is likely the better choice. I'm even considering eventually turning...

That looks the same as the problem rohmux reported earlier in the thread. It's a problem with your firmware, which is somehow missing standard Python modules. I'm not sure what causes this, but I assume it's somehow related to accidental misuse of opkg, though you didn't mention using it at...

Minor bug report: See my discussion with Lomaxx on the PNDstore comment page regarding Synergy's PXML. He didn't include the xmlns attribute in the opening PXML tag, and consequently it was misread by PNDstore. Such an error should have been rejected on upload to the repo, right?

Man, that's already leagues better than the PNDstore GUI! I'm glad other people are advancing repo interfaces now, because I know so little about GUI development, while having so many other things to do. Keep up the good work!

Yeah, the potential slips inherent in Ctrl-clicking are what made me hesitate on that one, but I didn't realize it was particularly bad on Pandoras. That's a compelling argument for checkboxes. I'm not sure how much I like the idea of using the existing status column for checkboxes, both from...
