On the Pandora Wiki, in the Charging section of the User Manual, I found that I should charge the pandora 8 hours before use. Should this be done in low power mode, and how do I enable that?


Also, I was in search for information about the Keyboard, as I'm Swedish, I'm wondering if there is an easy way to use vowels that is specific to my native language(ÅÄÖ)? It would be useful to me when writing stuff on the web.

It's quite easy. All you need to do is to customize the Xmodmap config.


Here is my example of russian layout: http://vminko.org/storage/pandora/configs/.Xmodmap


And this is what it looks like (Cyrillic_* keysyms correspond to green and magenta letters):

Yes, of course. But take into account that the default meaning of ABXY buttons is Home/End/PgUp/PgDown. If you want to remap these keys to Fn+Arrows, you'll need to patch the kernel (http://vminko.org/storage/pandora/portage/sys-kernel/pandora-sources/files/shoulderized-fn-layout.patch - use this patch as an example, PM me for details).
