    What software are you using on your pyra.

    The debian repo is quite big and full of little or big gems, but sometimes you have no clue what you are looking for or you just dont know of the existence of a certain piece of software. So how about a thread to tell what you've installed on your pyra. Lets keep this thread simple. What...

    Audio in/out

    I saw that there are pure data packages on the armhf repo of debian, so it is likely that pure data works. Which is great so that started me thinking on the Pyra audio ports. On the Pandora we had the great line in and line out on the tv out cable but that is missing from the pyra. We have...

This value is given in both the pandora system info program as on the indicator in the status area...

    Can somebody think of a nice task for the keyboard guys :D

    Apparently they to much time on their hands, maybe there are some nice articles for the wiki to be typed, some coding to do, some advertisements to be made.... :P (maybe its just me but these layout discussions seem like an endless semi-pointless debate that will only be settled when ED...
