    INPUT/OUTPUT ERROR when trying to launch browser.

    I believe there is a way to link the  "Web Browser" menu item to your browser, though since it should show up on your menu and or desktop I gave up trying to link it early on.  Though I use Arora,  I would assume Firefox should be the same: If the PND file is in...

    Pandora <-> PC usb network broken by PC os upgrade

    Neelix,   Thanks for testing the live cd,  based on that I threw a spare HDD in my main computer and did a standard install, usb networking works out of the box.  Very strange, its almost like there some relation between them on a hardware level, which doesn't make sense since the mac address...

    Pandora <-> PC usb network broken by PC os upgrade

    Neelix, you got me thinking about that, maybe its a hardware issue.  I re tried the test on both of the 2 usb ports on the laptop, and got the same result for each.  Following your logic, maybe its something with the laptop usb controller hardware it self, so I tested using my wife’s computer...

    Pandora <-> PC usb network broken by PC os upgrade

    After having  my Pandora for a few weeks I am quite pleased with it.  The help I got from all of you prior to buying the device allowed me to get it up in running as needed before a very important trip, and I am very thankful for that.  As most of us do, I have a few bugs here and there, but...

    can the Pandora readily meet my needs?

    Klapse - thanks for letting me know.  Sounds like that didn’t change then. Klapse  &  Moxie  - glad you found that link useful, I hope to be a contribuiter of information as well as a consumer here. Thanks again to everyone who has patiently answered my questions... I sent off my order to...

    can the Pandora readily meet my needs?

    Last few questions (I hope) I gather that fdisk ships on the NAND, does cfdisk?  How about mkfs.vfat? From what I understand dostools are on the NAND, but I read here on the boards something about having to update dostools, and to accomplish this run: (in  a terminal) sudo opkg update sudo...

    can the Pandora readily meet my needs?

    Thanks again to every ones input.  I'll order from Link,   I thought that would still be helping clear the preorders, just wanted to make sure. What everyone has been saying about cards shows me the way, one thing I am a bit concerned with, I was originally going to buy a 64gb card and reformat...

    can the Pandora readily meet my needs?

    Neelix,  Thanks again, very useful stuff, its funny I was looking at  sshftp  just before reading your post.   If USB networking doesn't take me too long to setup that sounds like a really clean way to do it, as my network hub is across the room from my PC and I'd need yet another cable floating...

    can the Pandora readily meet my needs?

    Thanks for the warm welcomes, all the helpful thoughts and comments!   After some more experimenting I've come to the conclusion that sync is best done with unison, having the Pandora act as a external disk.   Binky, If I understand you correctly, I can only have -one- of the 2 SD cards...

    can the Pandora readily meet my needs?

    I've been doing a lot of research on here as well as elsewhere about the Pandora, I'd really like to get one, but I need to be fairly sure it can be setup to do what I want considering the cost. I'm looking to do this with the least modifying  / fuss - ie not installing pandebian or rolling my...
