Old Face To Say Hello

[namco]

I've not been on this forum in ages!
 
But I am here to say hi and...waitaminute...what am I doing on the Pandora section???
 
Ah ha, that's because I managed to get a Rebirth in around June last year and thoroughly enjoying my little bundle of joy. I've also managed, last night, to get a test SDL app running using a modification of the old GP2X makefile. I only have one question, when I set up the pnd with PNDTools and upload it to the menu folder on the SD card, the menu doesn't display any of the other applications. Running the .pnd via run_pnd.sh works fine though. Any suggestions?
 
Also does anyone know a fast way to reload the menu without having to reset the Pandora?
 
I'll update the post with the PXML file later tonight and will put up a post on how I setup my dev system for Pandora.

Interesting. I can't really help you (since I couldn't find a Pandora to buy in the US), but it's nice to see someone is putting in effort into the wonderful handheld.
 
I wish you the best of luck!

I ran your PXML file through xmllint with the PXML schema (see this Pandora Wiki article for how to do this yourself), and it complained about empty <description> blocks on lines 10, 22, 26 and the extra <icon src="./assets/icon.png"/> on line 32. Hope this helps.

@alxm: Thanks found that out from the Pandora forums. All fixed now!
