Alright, I'm jumping in. I've followed some of the instructions on the openmoko site, seems to be mostly the same except for some different paths; like /etc/opkg.conf being at /etc/opkg/opkg.conf Are you getting any problems installing stuff? All the packages I've tried fail with this message...

^Interesting stuffs. I do feel that just opening the top part up and making sure the bezel is perfectly aligned might solve the problem, but it seems like it's not worth the risk. I was thinking that the lid might be a decent place to try to put a 3g stick, sacrificing one of the speakers, but...

I'm feeling lucky that I seem to have avoided any of the other hardware faults that I've seen posted on the boards (not surprised, just feeling lucky), but I do have the 'Bezel Issue' - the bottom bezel on my screen is bowed out. Now it's not a huge deal, but it would be nicer if it didn't do...

So... this seems to be awesome. Am I missing a downside here? Presumably if the SD card with the applications installed on it is not inserted, you could get some weird stuff happening - but only something like the application appearing to be there, but not being available to run? a

Just wondering if anyone was up for posting some teardown pictures? I'm not planning to open my Pandora up at this point, but if someone was doing it anyway, maybe they could post some detailed pictures? I think what people would be particularly interested in are: - Any spaces inside the case...

Stuckie, I love your tutorials. I read it and it's clear exactly how to do what you suggest. It's never clear whether someone *should* do what you suggest, but that just makes it more fun :)

We're never going to get a concensus on which buttons do what. But we could very well have an abstraction layer, a defined set of App button variables like: APP_BUTTON_BACK APP_BUTTON_CANCEL APP_BUTTON_PLAY... and a screen to set bindings so users can decide what button to assign. Then the...

Good question. I guess there is no consistent way that these kind of tweaks or tuning can be applied? It's just going to require digging through the code of each ported app and rearranging the windows?

you ain't kidding... :blink:

Truly, the battery life is incredibly awesome, but that may only be because of the awesomely huge battery. Can anyone confirm what, if any power management is implemented? My impression is that the only thing happening on closing the lid is that the screen turns off. Is that fair to say?

I had fun one this morning; I was trying to get some files off an SD card and it just wasn't reading it. I was in a hurry, so I didn't have time to troubleshoot that, but then I realised that I could plug the card into a USB reader to get the files. It worked :) - Small thing in itself, but it's...

Just had this myself, and it scared the crap out of me. I have a new technique to add to the arsenal against this. So I realized that the reason that the brightness buttons weren't working was that I was at the login screen, not actually in xfce yet. Here's what you do: Reset Wait until...

:) fair enough. sudo mount ubermyth:/myth /home/ali/myth actually originally I was just doing: sudo mount -a since I have an entry in /etc/fstab, but I get the same results on the above. basically I can connect into this share on another computer, and I just copied the relevant bits from...

oh huh. Yeah I guess I should offer some slower international options, I just gave UPS Express and it's all calculated. No Likey? Oh no, I love it. I just bought 2; one for me, one for eBay. I'm just trying to offset my costs a bit, if I break even, I'll donate the rest back into dev bounties...

sudo mount <serverIdefinedInHosts>:/<sharedFolder> home/me/sharefolder ...don't know if I've made that less intelligable by removing the specific details...

I'm keeping this separate from the Windows share discussion since I'm expecting different audiences. When I try to mount a local NFS share, I'm getting this rather unhelpful error: mount.nfs internal error I know my /etc/exports is good on the server, because I'm mounting these shares on...

...for those working the numbers to see when your Pandora might arrive: My confirmation email was sent at 14:10:55 sept 30th. I never asked my position, but figured it was low since that was in the first 5 minutes of ordering (I think). Got my shipping email on May 26, received the Pandora...

^true dat. As an added bonus, a Pandora on eBay making a ridiculous amount of money is great publicity.

I upgraded to UPS last week. Very easy, just emailed openpandorasales, they sent a google checkout request. As for when... I think you've got some time. You can probably wait until at least you see that the rest of the cases have arrived.
