Thanks to some quick tips from sebt3, I've created a Defendguin PND. I've replaced the link in the original post, but to save on scrolling, download it here.

Sure, help away. :) I was going to figure out how to PND things myself, once I got it scaled correctly and with better controls, but given the screen size is hard coded in, and a lot of the movement, firing and mini-map are based on that size, it may take a decent amount of futzing to fix. I...

I've compiled Defendguin 0.0.12 on the Pandora. Here's the game in PND: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/12348452/defendguin-yam-1.pnd The controls: D-Pad for movement Space to fire lasers P to pause ESC to quit to menu This is a quick but fully functional port, at the original game resolution...

I tried out the 0.0.3 demo on the apps site. It's a good start. The wing flapping has a nice feel, but when you strike monsters, the griffin feels more like a pool ball bouncing around. Also, when I was hit by the monster, it felt like there was a large amount of space still between my sprite...

You could just release it and call it "beta" :)

Thanks ED! It loaded my test color and B&W games perfectly, and sounded good. I'll look forward to some quality time with it when I'm not at work. For the people talking about quitting/loading a new rom, maybe you could set up ESC to quit the app, and Q to quit to rom selection? Not sure how...

TrueCrypt has already been ported and PNDed. I've "installed" it but haven't actually tried using it yet. There are a number of other apps on this page as well: http://www.hermocom.com/downloads/openpandora/ I can confirm GQView and Circus Linux PNDs from that page both work though. :)

Those usually need drivers. That page says: Requirements: Microsoft Windows® XP 32-bit (Service Pack 2), Windows® Vista®, Windows® 7 32-/64-bit OpenPandora plans to sell a long cable to connect to TVs, but it's delayed. Someone posted about making their own, but I gather it will require a bit...

I've created a wiki page for this. I think I got everything right, and added some notes on swapping around the direction pad and turning off the accelerometer mapping for the mouse. Criticism or corrections welcome, or just make updates to the page. PandoraWiki: Using a Wiimote as a controller

After a second furious search through old game disks, I found the install disks. The vanilla original files worked without fuss. Now, to configure the joysticks. It looks gorgeous on the screen, Pickle. Thanks for the port and the advice.

I didn't realize it was writing out errors to /tmp/pndrun*. Handy. I also should have read your original post more carefully, where you state where to stick files. With the original files, I'm getting the error that there are not enough strings, which sounds like I need to patch it. If I try...

I grabbed the PND for D1X from openhandhelds.org. I ran the PND once, as you had mentioned it creates a data directory. The disk activity light blips a few times, but nothing comes up. It makes two hidden file/directories: .d1x-rebirth and .wh..wh.orph. So I made an appdata/d1x/data directory...

My first wiimote is paired to my Pandora. I just ran wminput and backgrounded the process in terminal. I commented out the .acc lines in /etc/cwiid/wminput/default so the accelerometer would stop playing with my mouse pointer. After some futzing, I realized I could just map the wiimote buttons...

Thanks Tempel and Defo. Running the package list update fixed the problem. wminput runs. I just need to grab batteries for my wiimote (I left them at home). :blush:

I tried "opkg install cwiid", got an error about permissions on writing a lock file to /usr/lib/opkg/lock, so tried "sudo opkg install cwiid". This just gives me: Collected errors: * opkg_install_cmd: Cannot install package cwiid. This was run from the terminal, running Hotfix 3, with...

Ah, I had thought it would be a System App, not a Tool, so it didn't occur to me to look there. You're probably right in that I was thinking of the PS3 pairing utility. My boyfriend has one of those controllers, so I'll try that as well. I had searched for combinations of 'wiimote', 'arm' and...

I know there used to be a bluetooth driver for the Wiimote that was recompiled to work on the Pandora lurking on the original application archive. I'm guessing with all the OS changes, it wouldn't work anymore, and was removed. I didn't have any luck searching the forums or Google about progress...

Dinner last night was home made corn chowder with bacon and leftover corned beef chunks, crusty asiago bread paired with diced fresh tomato, basil and feta and the occasional piece of smoked salmon. Finished off with cheesecake. Leftovers are amazing. BMI isn't a great way of measuring a...

I'm actually pretty excited to see a decent image viewer ported, as I hope to use my Pandora to weed and store photos during trips and holidays. It looks like it views different raw formats too, which would be amazing to have on the go (I have a Nikon and am looking at a Canon). Thanks for...

Crazy. There are three of us in Davis, California so far. It's not a large city, so I'm a bit surprised, even with the presence of a University.
