[fantomid]

Arrived by plane in the city of Lyon this evening for the JDLL and stopped at the Part-Dieu train station :

Linux-SWAT get a conference slot saturday at 2 pm and half about the Pyra.

[doublepost=1459558280,1459558090][/doublepost]I kinda doubt it, but will the protoype be there? If ptitSeb had one there might be something to show off. Something amazing.

First day finished, people always interested by the project.
They are waiting for the PYRA

I got problems to upload photos (poor wifi connection at hotel)
I will try to put some tomorrow.

@ED, we got a problem while reflashing my 1GHz Pandora (Corruption of the SD while reading and writing, wrong rootfs md5sum)
We didn't manage to flash it and now it didn't reboot anymore

Not sure there's much you can do on the crappy hotel wifi, but this thread has instructions in it to rescue a non-booting Pandora:

I will try.
We try booting with a Slackware SD and check the md5sum of the rootfs.
We didn't arrive to the desktop and the md5 of the rootfs was not correct.
Booting after another fonctionnal Pandora with the Slackware SD, we see that the file system was corrupted

As promised, some pictures:

I love playing around with Haiku from time to time. There was probably some other cool stuff there that I don't already know about, so it would be great if I could go to something like this. Thanks for pics.

 

[rSl]

huge crowd in front of the pyra booth, this is the way it has to be!
have fun!

I took photos in the saturday morning at the beginning of the event.
But we got finally lots of people.
And JDLL is not the most important event about Free Software in France.

Maybe @ptitSeb and @Linux-SWAT could give their feedback.
And we meet a new community member, sunday. Don't remember his pseudo

On Saturday there was really plenty of people. Crowded and not much time to breeze (or port Serious Sam). It was much quiter on Sunday.

On Saturday, mostly all people were Linux and OpenSource antousiast. So many were really interested in the Pandora and the Pyra. A few wanted to buy a Pandora right now, for them of for their kids.

On sunday, people were more in "tourist mode", wondering what this little thing could and what it could do.

 

[Linux-SWAT]

And we are now officially out of flyers.
We had to give stickers, hopefully they have the website address on them.
I also have pictures to share. I'll do that on the next days.

French free software event... but more than half of the Pandora software is French generated...

 

[Linux-SWAT]

He still ported while demoing ^^.
