    Pandora Intro Animation

    I kinda like the fade in/out effect on the uboot screen. Obviously not as long (since it won't be loading a kernel in that time.) but the same idea. Simple, effective, etc. Probably just add a link to the site in small lettering on a corner.

    How To Show Chinese Or Japanese Characters In File Manager?

    If you have internet on your pandora: sudo opkg install packagename It will install the package and all it's dependencies for you. EDIT: Without internet, yeah, you'll need to follow through, download and install all dependencies. I think you can use something like "sudo opkg info...

    How To Show Chinese Or Japanese Characters In File Manager?

    They may be big5 or shift-jis, which you might have some trouble getting to work. The pandora firmware seems to only come with locale data for english, german and french, so you may need to install some language pack as well. From there I'm not sure. I think you can run localedef with the...

    New Pandora

    Yeah, you need to be very careful when buying wifi sticks. A lot of them, especially cheaper ones, WILL NOT work. And you won't be able to use ndiswrapper, either.

    Best Video Format

    Yeah, if there's any "constant quality" mode, I'd select that over "constant bit rate", "average bit rate" or "target file size" modes. For some reason those modes became the norm, when they're really used for special purposes like fitting a video in to a specific space (like a DVD) or...

    Does Python Need Cross Compiling To Run On The Pandora?

    The Python in the Pandora OS is missing a lot of stuff (out of requirement, really.). So be careful and be prepared to have to either make some exceptions or possibly package some python modules in your PND if this is possible.

    New Pandora

    Well, I would provide a how to, but that wifi adapter has died already. There was nothing special about what I did, though. Pretty basic cross compiling stuff that's probably already on the wiki somewhere. I'm stuck tethering my iphone to the pandora using iproxy/ssh/proxychains to get webs...

    Wifi discussion

    I have trouble similar to this. It can usually stay OK for a little while (though will pretty much invariably drop within an hour or 2) but if I actually try to download anything that may take a few seconds even, it'll just crap out. The same files downloading at a slower rate (<50KB/s) seem...

    New Pandora

    OK, I got my wireless working with a Linksys AE1000 I picked up from breast buy. I cross-compiled the kernel following urjaman's instructions on the kernel building thread (also enabled Tickless System and Preemptible Kernel). All that worked well and successfully installed and booted. I then...

    Please Select The Date.

    You have the same problem with the time not staying right? Thought it was just me.

    Usb Experience, Webcam Driver, Multiple Gamepads

    I think it acts as both or switches modes or something. But you could be right. I'm honestly not sure, and also not sure how to tell. Also, first result on google: http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Em28xx_devices#Firmware

    Howto: Connect Wifi Manually

    As you all know, I've been having trouble with wifi, but have had some small luck doing it manually. This is what I did, and to be honest, it's pretty generic Linux stuff, but I really haven't found a particularly good guide for this. There's a link to it in my Dreadful Wireless thread as...

    It's started by /etc/init.d/NetworkManager. :)

    Usb Experience, Webcam Driver, Multiple Gamepads

    Linux will create more event and js devices for multiple joysticks automatically. I don't know about making them primary. I guess it's just the order you put them in or based on udev rules, but then there's the existent gamepad that is the pandora itself, so I honestly don't know how to...

    Old Thread About Fake Sd Cards

    2GB is still decent capacity for micro SD, and there's obviously still some market for them, and i guess some surplus 1GB chips.

    A Request To Those With Sd Card Corruption

    I think it does more than that, like write patterns and some other checks to detect for mapper issues (mirroring, not writing at all, getting random garbage, missing bits/bytes, bits/bytes out of order, etc). Writing a program that open()s the device directly and does these tests probably...

    New Pandora

    I have networkmanager disabled. I removed it's startup script, so it's not related to that. It's completely hardware. :(
