    What's the status of RMAs?

    Been away from the Pandora scene for months now so no idea what's been happening. One of the reasons is I've lost a lot of the love I had for my Pandora. The USB has never worked and it drains a battery flat in about 30hrs (that's powered off, so I need to remove the battery when not using it)...

    Whats the RMA situation just now?

    The charger and USB has never worked on my Pandora. After waiting so long I didn't want to RMA it straight away. However I've now discovered than the battery running out after 2 days of being shutdown (i.e. logout->shutdown) is not normal either. What's the current situation with RMAs? Are...

    Will the battery last a week out of the Pandora?

    My Pandora has only ever charged from USB (sent emails but never got a reply) which means I mustn't let the battery run down to 0 (you can't charge a completely flat battery from USB). I'm going on holiday and so I'm wondering how long the battery will hold it's charge outside of a Pandora...

    Getting control of keyboard

    I'm just starting trying to get something running on the Pandora and I've got it drawing fine, but when I press keys they appear in terminal that I'm running the exe from (causing the screen to flicker as it draws both). Also the mouse pointer is still visible and pressing the Pandora key brings...

    Won't charge from charger

    Simple one this. I've never been able to charge using the charger, but the connector doesn't go ALL the way into the back, there is still some silver showing. Is it meant to? (I'd *really* have to force it if it is). Other question is I assume I can use one of these Mini-B USB Mains chargers...

    PNDs no long appear on desktop

    Not sure when this happened, but I suspect it was after I installed gnome-mount because of this problem. I no longer get my PNDs to appear on the desktop. Instead I get (say) cdevtools.freamon.40n8e#0.desktop file which, from looking at the contents, seems to be the meta data to run the pnd...

    Count not mount SD Card

    When I first ran Firefox and I browsed to one of my SD cards to save the profile it says Could not mount <CARDNAME> Failed to execute child process "gnome-mount" (No such file or directory) I quit, ejected the other card and could then browse to it. However in Mupen64 it always reports...

    WiFi debugging tools

    I assume my WiFi connection is dropping e.g. I run opkg and it will often just hang. Run it again it might work. Same with PNDStore, try and install something and sometimes it works sometimes it just hangs. So anyway, what's available to see what's going on with the connection? Cheers.

    First thoughts from a new owner

    Just thought I'd post my thoughts of the first few hours with my new life partner (ordered Oct 2 18:30). The Bad Nothing when I plugged it in. No lights, nothing. I figured the battery was completed drained. I had bought a spare, put that in and It's Alive! Turns out it's actually the...

    No menu when press Pandora button

    Ok, jut got my Pandroa and loving it (will post my thoughts later). However, somehow the main menu icon (bottom left of screen) has gone and pressing the Pandroa button does not bring it up. No idea what I did, I was browsing the menu when it disappeared along with the icon. Reboot, switch GUI...
