I think you can make xscreensaver execute a command, somehow... or I figure there's SOME kind of program that'll check if keyboard/mouse has been idle for X minutes and run a command (in this case mplayer -fs -shuffle blahblah).

If the pandora gets popular enough, I look forward to the knock-off colored cases like there are for the PSP, even a clear one would be cool, or the DS Lite's kind of case. :P I'm just worried that it took all kinds of money and time to get the cases as good as they are now, it'd be hell for...

I think he meant to not put them in parallel all using 1 resistor, because if one of them fuses and becomes 0 resistance and no voltage drop, you'll get a kind of short, or something, and all of them will stop working. Been a while since I messed with any of this stuff, so I'm likely off the...

For windows, to make a PND, you can do something like copy program.iso + PXML.xml + icon.png program.pnd to make the .PND. Just use whatever burning program to make the .ISO.

What VO does mplayer use on the pandora, anyway? Does it just use x11/sdl or xv or xvidix or something more specific? If it's using x11/SDL on the original poster's pandora, that'd be why videos are playing slowly... those VOs are uselessly slow on pretty much anything at any resolution, since...

Well, he gave a lot of random numbers about his position, but let's say he's around position 1750, that being the average of the randomness he spewed. The chance that you'll get it sooner would be about 56.25%. First, we want the chance that you'll be after him, so you'd be bumped up one, so...

A bootup sound and simple animation would be nice, like something rotating. but don't try for something too "smooth". Nothing worse than an animation ruined by the system starting to chug on something and it gets choppy and blah. Maybe just a small spinner that goes at ~2-5 FPS, and a...

This seems like one of the Recompile type ports. It's probably mostly C and SDL, so it should just work out of the box. Maybe a more extensive port would optimize a blitter for the pandora or something.

A few months before preorder started, in an IRC chat room. I was in to DS homebrew for a while and thought it was alright, but the touch screen keyboards for most programs sucked (Especially Nintendo's... I could never reliably type on that crap.) and the CPU was disgustingly underpowered for...

"zsnes (btw im too stupid to learn the name of the emulator)" :P

SD cards are formatted a bit differently, so certain devices won't work with them, and other such oddness on things that may appear to work.

I'm pretty sure it'll be on the sd card.

Might be worth using the Panasonic SD formatter if you continue to have problems.

It's kinda funny that the Pandora is superior in hardware and not too far off in software from those fancy car systems, but they are unbelievably expensive. I hate the auto industry so much, it's a ripoff at every corner. My sister's car has some kind of fancy interface thing but it's really...

The stuff to compile for pandora are around. I found it on the wiki. Something like codesourcery gcc-4.2. I couldn't get it to compile, but I figure any armv7a-linux-gnu-gcc will work OK. As for the PND tools, I have no idea. I looked all over and couldn't find anything. I mean, I guess it...

Could you just use the standby mode? Hit the power button and see if it still charges in that mode.

They added it last year or early this year I think. mplayer dvdnav:// I forget the controls but they're in the man page.

I wonder if something like Gentoo Prefix could work off an SD card. You won't be getting ARM/Pandora specific stuff, but it won't be the dependency hell it would be if you want to install to SD card rather than filling up NAND. I don't know if Gentoo Prefix currently will work on ARM... I...
