    Unofficial Keyboard Layouts

    Get rid of the double wide keys (space), it is a waste of space. 1.5x wide keys are ok on the ends of an offset row, I don't think half width keys are a good idea. I think a uniform array of keys where each row is offset half a key from the next would be the most flexible solution. keys could...

    Unofficial Keyboard Layouts

    Both the space bar and the enter key need to be split in two, or the dvorak keymap can not be implemented.

    Unofficial Keyboard Layouts

    The double wide space bar makes a Dvorak keymap impossible. Split it in two.

    Unofficial Keyboard Layouts

    There needs to be a letter key to the right of "L" and to the right of ">" or a Dvorak keymap can not be implemented. Dvorak keymap: ` 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 [ ] backspace tab ' , . p y f g c r l / = \ capslock a o e u i d h t n s - return shift ; q j k x b m w v z shift ctl ...

    SuperZaxxon v1.60 RC released (please test!)

    upgrade finished on the second attempt. Results of testing: One must still run "sudo refcomm connect 0" once after booting before "ConBTGPS" will work (and it will work until the next reboot). bluetooth will not work after suspend to RAM until it has been disabled and then re-enabled. The...

    SuperZaxxon v1.60 RC released (please test!)

    Hung in the "collected errors:" section of the upgrade, right after "Configuring task-pandora-xfce." I guess I abort the current install and retry before rebooting.

    Some more of my ideas

    Please make sure there are enough keys in the right places to implement a Dvorak keymap.

    Finding a proper name and logo :)

    Name it "Envy" or one of the other things that escaped when Pandora's box was opened.

    Things I do not want to see again in a P2

    Absolutely not! The battery should have two springs, one on the end as shown, and the other behind the contacts. If you don't do it this way, vibrations will cause the contacts to bounce apart, causing the device to shut down. This caused me endless frustration with my old Garman GPS. Every...

    USB GPS

    Having designed several USB devices, I will NEVER use the version numbers when I wish to describe the speed of a USB device. The numbers do not tell you the speed of the device. USB 1.0 and USB 1.1 support "Low Speed" and "Full Speed" USB 2.0 supports "Low Speed", "Full Speed" and "High Speed"...

    USB GPS

    The biggest issue is that USB GPS devices are USB "Full Speed" devices that will not work directly with the large USB port. To use it, you will need either a USB OTG cable, mini-A to mini-B, or Micro-B, depending on what the GPS uses, if it has a hard wired cable, you will need a mini-A to full...

    Release Firefox 23.0.1 in repo

    The primary reason for updates these days is that someone found a way to break the program to remotely sabotage your computer. The fixes are there to prevent that particular method from working.

    SuperZaxxon v1.55 released!

    There is only one WIFI where I am, it is very strong, and it still takes up to a minute for the Pandora to find it and connect.

    Cherry keyboard not working

    Thank you for the fix, I'll go fix that in the original. The naming is incredibly confusing and using USB 1 and USB 2 only makes it worse as USB 1 is a subset of USB 2, so many devices claim to be USB 2, but only support USB low speed or USB Full Speed.

    What sort of keyboard should P2 have?

    Please make sure it has enough keys to handle a Dvorak keymap. The Pandora is missing several keys required for that keymap. Also, don't make the keys glossy. It is really hard to read the symbols with all of the reflections.

    Cherry keyboard not working

    Clerification: Pandora's big USB port will not work with "USB low speed" or "USB full Speed" devices. It has nothing to do with USB 1.0 or 2.0 devices. USB High Speed Hubs have built in translators that translate "USB Low Speed" and "USB Full Speed" to "USB High Speed", and allow those devices...

    old nub new nub

    A clicky mouse button is a requirement if you ever expect to  emulate the PS2. The current nubs are NOT fine. They are incredibly inconsistent. The auto calibration is continually "fixing" its adjustments so you never know how far you need to move it to get the result you want. Worse, my left...
